This is what we did before starting our adventure (lenghty update) - videos.trom.tf/w/ivyg4KLX2LVmD…

We know this is a very lenghty update but we wanted to showcase what we did for the past 2 months to prepare for our adventure. We put more batteries, more solar panels, new mattress and more! 😃

So far we have not experienced any weather extremes. Well now we have been through a storm and the temperature goes as low as 0 Celsius, almost freezing. But that is rare and only at night. We have a heater that was part of the motorhome and does wonders. It works on propane and since the motorhome is so small it heats it up really well.

For example now outside it feels like 1 Celsius and feels like it is snowing (that kinda of rain in between rain and snow) :), but inside there are around 22 degrees with the heater at half power. Super comfy inside.

For the summer we will probably need to put some vents or even an AC unit.

hm an AC means several things: first you plan to go to very hot areas. Hot areas are usually full of people in Europe. So we avoid that. Second an AC unit will consume a ton of energy....probably from 500 to 1000W. And that is hard to achieve with just solar panels and batteries for a small motorhome like ours. But we will consider for sure....
