What to Wear When Travelling in Your Caravan

Most modern caravans these days are equipped with a wardrobe and a fair amount of cupboard space. It’s always very tempting to throw in a heap of clothing just because you can. However what we need to keep in mind is that this all adds extra weight and this can contribute to the overall weight…
