EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WATER FOR EXTENDED FREE-CAMPING.
Benjamin Franklin once said,“ When the well’ s dry, we know the worth of water.” The same could be said about running out of water when we’ re on our caravanning adventures. We need water to survive.
Australia is the world’ s driest inhabited continent, yet according to some sustainability studies, Australians use more water per person than most other countries around the world. It’ s little wonder that the single biggest issue most caravanners have when freecamping is having enough water to last their stay. I know how hard it is. When we started freecamping with our first caravan, I was shocked at how quickly we used all the water we could carry.
Over the years, we figured out ways to save water and easily replenish it so that we could continue camping at that remote off-grid location for extended periods of time.
