“Laugh out loud funny & a great travel guide.” *
Have you ever thought of giving up work and heading off into the sunset with surfboards on your roof? If you answer ‘Yes’ – or you just like dogs, caravans, or travel, this book is for you.
Year 1 – Fur Babies in France follows the true story of a couple who accidentally bought a caravan – and then decided to rent out the house, sell most of their possessions, and tour Europe full-time with their four dogs, Cavapoos Kai, Rosie, Ruby, and Lani.
It was a steep learning curve, involving many breakages and a near-death experience. Discover whether, with the application of humour, they find peace and tranquillity on the back roads of France – with a bit of windsurfing thrown in!
