I've been a member here for a while, but not really pro-active! Decided to re-kindle my account and through I'd post here to see if there are any other young members?

I'm 26 and my girlfriend is 22 - we've been touring Europe for two seasons and are planning an epic tour for 2011 to take in as much as we can over 12-18mts. We meet LOADS of people through travelling although mostly older but luckily we're 20 going on 50!

We've got an Adria Twin, having had a Compass Suntor and a CI 694 before settling on our 6m van conversion. It's perfect!

Hi, welcome .. you are probably far too sensible for this forum, most are 50+ going on 10 :roflmto:

Wish I were in my twenties again.. enjoy your adventures before getting tied down..

safe travels ..

I just celebrated my 22nd birthday last wednesday, so I might still be the youngest, but as my partner is 52 you probably have the lowest average age for couples :roflmto::thumb:

And welcome to the forum by the way

Ha! I wish, I've worked incredibly hard for the last ten years and will still be working while on the road on our trip! :)

Just managed to find a perfect stacking box combination for under the fixed bed on our Adria Twin so hopefully we won't need that roofbox!

I am curious as to know how you are earning money while touring around?

I am from Denmark and I can see in your itinerary that you plan on going that way this year so I might be able to help with suggestions and advice about Denmark.

Any advice for Denmark (or any other countries mentioned in our blog) would be great!

I work in online marketing so anywhere there is an internet connection for me to check my e-mails I can do some work, I won't be doing a lot but there will be enough to hopefully cover the fuel costs at least while we are away.

Quite a few young people do something similar, there is a guy the same age as me who has a Hymer who designs iPhone apps: Link Removed

Hi

I am just 33! and my hubby is 35 we have had our motorhome for 2 1/2 years and we were completely new to all this and I suppose relatively on the young side.

The only difference is - well apart from a few years is that we have 3 kids (2, 5 & 9).

It doesn't matter your age or your circumstances as long as you get out of motorhoming what you want thats the main aim. :thumb:

What you are doing is fantastic though, you haven't got to worry about earning a certain amount to support children or have to be back for a particular date for work/schools you can't beat that.

Free spirits eh? mmmm, maybe in my next life. Good luck :thumb:

Hi and welcome and I'm wishing you both all the best, I wouldn't have been brave enough to do what you're doing when I was younger but for the last few years I've been braver and now have a motorhome and usually camp on my own or with one of my kids, 12 & 17 & I'm 45 but hubby is a real fair weather camper, doesn't mind it for a hol but not into weekends as he thinks its too much trouble.....I have a good bunch of camping buddies and onliners too.....:Cool::thumb:

Thanks for all the comments guys :)

We were going to go down the 'settling down route' but just couldn't bring ourselves to be tied down in one place so we thought why not just do it! :)
