This website enables all our friends and relatives to follow us on our RV trip. It is a simple diary that we try to complete each day.
Please notice that we will use the European date system d/m/y as well as the 24 h time system.

Wir haben diese Website für alle Freunde und Verwandte eingerichtet, die uns bei unserer Wohnmobilreise aus der Ferne begleiten möchten. Es handelt sich um eine Art Tagebuch, das wir versuchen täglich zu führen.
