It's a shame because sometimes I hate having to tow a camper trailer everywhere. Especially when we live around the corner from the Watagans where it's a 5 minute drive to a bush campsite.
So for me a quick camp either means I buy a roof top tent or a decent ground tent. I don't want a rooftop tent because I love being able to take the hardtop off quickly. So now I have to find a decent sized tent that's quick to pop up.

A couple of weeks ago, my 14yo daughter asked if she could go down south with some people who had a camper van.
She said she needed to take a couple of swags because there was no room in the van for her or the daughter of the family she went with.
I was worried due to the cold and wet conditions but agreed to let her go.
She and her friend spent 3 nights in the rain and very cold conditions.
On collecting her from her friends place, I was informed that there was indeed plenty of room in the camper but they simply preferred to be out on their own under the trees in swags.
Awesome!
