Living on the Cheap

We spent the day walking, walking, walking- from the van to the other end of town, from shop to shop and then back again. It’s not the most pleasant of walks, there’s no coastline or scenic parklands to linger your eyes over, just roads, vehicles of all permutations and ugly brickwork. The smell is little better- car fumes and occasionally the smell of deep fried foods.
However we ticked some more chores off our list and Ryan now has more of an idea what he can do with his work experience in the UK.
Better still was having confirmation of our free accommodation! For one and a half hours of cleaning the toilet block each day we get to stay in the caravan park for free! We also made a deal with the park owners that we will keep the camp kitchen clean and close it down each night in exchange for free internet. So all we need to pay out at the moment is our groceries each week and any little extras. Hopefully this will see us right for the next several months, while we get on our feet here and find a more permanent home. I think Aldinga is calling!
