| Caravan |
One question that many caravan owners in Australia probably
don’t think to ask themselves is whether they can take their can on holidays
abroad. The main reason for this is that Australia is an island and that,
whenever we visit another country, we are forced to take a plane (or, perhaps,
a boat). Fortunately, if you are determined enough, it is possible to holiday
abroad in your caravan.
Firstly, it depends what you consider ‘abroad’ to be. Whilst
some people agree that the term refers to foreign countries, others believe
that ‘abroad’ refers to any place that you have to travel over water to get to.
If you are a follower of the latter, simply travelling to Tasmania or one of
the smaller islands around Australia would count. And it is more than possible
to take your caravan to these locations, namely on the ferries that join these
islands to the mainland.
If you agree with the former definition of ‘abroad’,
however, this does put you in a bit of a tricky situation. It is possible to
travel by boat to some of Australia’s nearest neighbours, including New
Zealand, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, meaning that you could probably take
your caravan with you, but these are long and tiresome journeys.
The best way to holiday abroad in a caravan is to travel, by
plane, to the country or continent of your choice and to buy a van once you
arrive. If you are travelling around Europe or America, especially, there are
plenty of neighbouring countries that you can simply drive your caravan to.
Then, when it comes time to come home, you can sell your van back to a dealer
or private buyer, hopefully making back most of the money that you spent on it
in the first place.
