In this episode, we celebrate our friend Julie’s 40th birthday. We leave our converted Ford transit campervan in our driveway and take off in Adam’s car. We hired an Airbnb house in Torquay. Unfortunately, Twyla couldn’t come, so she was babysat for the very first time. On our get-away, we checked out Torquay sites and walks.

It’s great to see Australian tourism picking up with many people traveling around Australia in caravans, campervans, RVs, and camping in tents. Now don’t stress – we’ll be back in our van next week bringing you another very exciting adventure in our campervan. We have so many different vanlife videos to share with you this year and tips and tricks on van life, so definitely stay tuned for that.

Our Airbnb was the Royal Villa, a private luxury holiday house in Torquay. It was the perfect place to relax with friends. The villa is everything you need to give you that experience of a perfect vacation. There was a Jacuzzi, large swimming pool, sauna, gym, and rooms with a private ensuite, exclusive suite with a private garden, advanced audio system, a fully equipped outdoor and indoor kitchen, fire pit, and more.

The Torquay Farmers Market is open Saturday mornings.

The Surf Coast Walk is a world-class 44-kilometer multi-use trail is located at the start of the Great Ocean Road region from Torquay to Aireys Inlet. The trail's easy access and 12 trailheads make it perfect for short, long or multi-day experiences. On the walk, you can;
• Enjoy the Torquay promenade and Anglesea River on these flat, kid-friendly, easy shared paths,
• Follow the clifftop lookouts around Jan Juc to see how the Surf Coast got its name,
• Relish the rich ochre of the Bells Beach cliffs and the deep blue of Bass Strait,
• Surround yourself with leafy green of eucalypt forests and abundant wildlife in the Ironbark basin,
• Let the lighthouse be your guide to Aireys Inlet.

We hope you enjoy our channel. We often get asked, ‘what is vanlife?’ Van life is a lifestyle of living in a vehicle full or part-time. The names are compound words that derive from the fact that it is typically done in a van that has been modified with basic amenities, such as house batteries, solar panels, a bed platform, some form of the toilet, sink, and storage space. Some van-dwellers live this lifestyle by choice while seeking freedom, self-sufficiency, and mobility without paying for conventional stationary housing, while for others it may be one step from living on the street or in a shelter. In 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, an idealized version has been popularized through social media with the hashtag #vanLife. Although the term van-dwelling implies living in a van, many types of vehicles may be used for permanent, mobile living arrangements, including former public buses or school buses, campervans, recreational vehicles (RVs), travel trailers, mobile homes, sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and cars. We enjoy part-time van-lifing, creating weekly episodes that are live at 5pm (AEST) Sundays, and sharing our experiences on our travels with our cavoodle, Twyla. In our episodes we stay at free and paid campsites, showing our tips and tricks on how to make life on the road easier and fun. Come join us on our adventures!
