I am so excited to share this with all of you. I would like to introduce you to Rawry - our new travelling companion, who is going to enable us to go on holiday with our dehydrator, our blender, our food processor and all of the raw food ingredients we can’t really do without. The dehydrator even fits in the cupboard when we are not using it. Yes, we have got ourselves a little caravan - definitely not one of those white box caravans - this one has a pop top roof, a rounded shape and quite a cult following. It is called an Eriba Troll for anyone who feels like googling it! We have been lucky to find Eriba owners are well supported by a great forum of enthusiasts who have helped us out with all of our questions since we are complete newbies.

We are finally free from so many of the hassles that come with travelling while attempting to eat a mainly raw food diet. Yes, it is possible to buy fresh fruit and vegetables and munch away on those, but with 2 small children we really need to be able to blend sauces, make smoothies, dehydrate snacks and process nuts for everyone to eat properly while we travel.

We have tried one night away so far and it was such great fun - the kids adored it. We are so pleased with some of the other benefits too - it is co-sleeping friendly. In fact, the large seating area at the back converts into a huge bed the same size as our superkingsize at home and there is still another seating area at the other end that makes a single if anyone is feeling like they need a bit more space. It is also home ed friendly - at last we can take our little ones on trips to all of the places we wanted to visit at campsite prices so we will be doing a lot more holidaying that we have been recently - there are so many great educational opportunities from travel.

Here’s a picture of our littlest one - the first one to go to sleep in the ‘family bed’ on the first night we tried it out. We’ll tell you more about our adventures as we go - watch this space..............
