One of my dreams is to own a VW camper van one day. I spend a good deal of time on family camping trips trying to unobtrusively edge closer to the beautiful busses on the campsite, peering inside at each individual setup. I've never been particularly interested in interior design but the thought of getting creative with such a space is quite exciting.

The bus is freedom, it's sunshine whatever the actual weather, it's individual and DIY, it's summer holidays that stretch on forever.

My family are well aware of this slight obsession and whilst an actual vehicle is still out of reach I'm building up quite the collection of gifts referencing it… joining the calendar, mug, tshirt and piggy bank are this birthday card and gift from my boyfriend's mum. Awesome or what?
(I just realised you can't really see the top of this.. it's a purse/pouch thingy.)
For now I am simply looking through
Campers in Cornwall and plotting summer 2012, when I will be 25 and therefore old enough to hire
Sherbie for a week or two and see how well my dream and I suit each other…
