Home sweet glampervan

After a short recovery in Cairns after our liveaboard trip, we boarded the plane the next day for Darwin. From Darwin, we would drive a few hours to Kakadu National Park to experience some aboriginal culture and enjoy all that nature (or the "bush" as Aussies call it) had to offer.

In search of adventure and a unique experience, we opted to rent campervan instead of staying at the conventional hotel. What is a campervan you ask? Imagine an RV or mobile home, miniaturized in the form of a large van. Yup, double size bed, sink, dining table and 'kitchen' all in one Toyota Hiace. Still having a hard time imagining how ALL of that could possible? Here's some insight into the magic:
 Daytime



 Nighttime: dining table = bed support / bench cushions = mattress

We opted for the non-bathroom version for one obvious reason...renter is responsible for emptying the 'gray water'.

So, there's a preview of our lovely accommodations for the next week in Darwin. More soon on Kakadu, Darwin, and Litchfield!
