    Love what you are doing. Are you working at all to assist your living costs or are you drawing on savings?

    Kia ora you fallas are yous still on the road?
    Have yous ever thought about becoming kiwi house sitters?
    We have been on the road full time for three years and house sitting helps break it up a bit. The annual cost to join the website is around 80 dollars but it's a awesome way to travel around. Chuurr

      We are a family of 5 that uses nappies. We also shop organic when we can. 300 is at the high end of our budget, when we run out of everything at the same time like honey nappies etc. We usually sit at about 250 on average....about $35 is just on eggs a week!

    How do you earn the money to keep paying for thing?

      Hi there, we have multiple online income streams that sustain us as well as Jamie being able to do auto electrical work for people we meet in the road. And, as you will see on this video we are very budget conscious so we don't require a lot of money to keep living the dream.

    The savings are 14 cents on fuel card. I often find I use gas driving to the truck stop. Just as well off to take advantage of 10 cent savings at BP, Caltex etc.
    Or, if I fill up at gull service stations, sometimes I save more than using the Mobil card at truck stops.
    I do click and collect at supermarkets. Big saving on the countdown card.
    Kovi insurance is expensive. Insurance is cheaper by shopping around. You get better deals
    We don't use doc sites. We have a dog. Wouldn't be worth the ticket
    Any money saved, unless youre a regular ferry user, (ten bucks cheaper with all points) spend thousands in noel leeming, is lost in 90 bucks for membership.
    The members you party it up with are all old in nzmca.
    Much better with all points camping

      @RoadLifeNZ  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the reply. When we made this vid times were definitely different. All points camping is definitely something to look at. You're right about nzmca, definitely an old boys club, although the park over properties etc did make it easier for us while we were touring.

      Everyone will be blue eyed with blond soon before you can enter a camp ground.
