Welcome to our travel blog! We are Gareth and Sandy and we decided to write about our travels in 2019. From February until August we are travelling in a small motorhome with our dog Misty across North America staying anywhere from State or National Parks to pampered RV resorts. We started in Burlington, Ontario, Canada.

We first started talking about this trip late last fall, and after a few weeks of looking around we found what we thought would be the perfect motorhome for us – not too big, as fuel efficient as possible for starters. Just one problem – it was in Chicago. We are no strangers to importing vehicles as between the two of us we’ve brought back three others from the US to Canada before this one. So a date was set for early January, and a few days after New Years we jetted – well actually it was a prop plane – off to Chicago Midway and met our new, temporary home.

We had an uneventful journey back home, even got to test run the sleeping-in-Walmart parking lot which actually wasn’t all that bad. We’ve done it twice more since. It especially helps that most US Walmarts are 24 hour and when your unit is winterized and you can’t use the plumbing, it helps to have some place to well, go. A few weeks of shopping and planning later and we were ready to hit the road – first stop Florida!
