The Big Lap around the country has become something of a rite of passage for older Australians. The statistics tell us there are more grey nomads out there than ever before, with some 60 per cent of new caravans being purchased by the over-55's. Researchers explain the trend by saying this generation of retirees is simply fitter, more financially secure, and more adventurous than ever before.
But that doesn't begin to tell the whole story. The grey nomad revolution is really about an army of individuals. People who have worked long and hard -- and who are now ready to live the dream.
This book is for them. It is intended to help them make the most of their wonderful new lifestyle. It offers them a comprehensive guide to: financing and planning a long-term trip; advice on how to manage their affairs while they are away; choosing a rig; when and where to go; health on the road; plus a state-by-state breakdown with maps on favoured routes and destinations.
From the cities and the caravan parks to the bush camps and the campfires, this guide will prove an invaluable companion.
