Page to show travel blog routes associated with all travel blogs on our motorhome travels blog site, they are created using a combination of a phone app and video editor with in my humble opinion great effect. They can then be used for You Tube shorts and Facebook & Instagram Reels and Stories, enjoy! WIP. TRAVEL BLOG ROUTES WELCOME TO MOTORHOME TRAVELS BLOG ROUTE MAPs - INTRODUCTION These video were created using the phone app Travel Boast where I drew out all the places we stopped at on route in order down to in many cases the smallest villages. It then draws out the route with a motorhome (and / or any other animated transportation icon i.e. plane, car, bus, van etc etc.) driving to show where we went. I have then hooked its 4 formats I had created into one You Tube video. Landscape, Portrait and square maps which are further altered to be on a map of 5 possible formats i.e.. Day, Night, soft blue, soft grey and one with enhanced road definition just for added effect. It is easy in the phone app to alter these map backgrounds and the orientation of the screen. You can also express the distances travelled in either kilometers or miles. For the purposes of this website and because I work in UK old money all my travel blog routes will be in miles. I have also (where necessary and desired) joined them together with some relevant images and textual overlays using Microsoft's Clipchamp. See what you think, i think it brings the journey to life and adds to any travel blog #newfeature The thing I do find out of kilter though is its estimated distance when compared to the actual distance we have recorded via other means, for example via our motorhome's speedometer which we know are accurate, even more surprising is the fact that between portrait and landscape using the same map data it comes up with different distances travels #wellweird This page shows all our holiday and motorhome travels but by implication as I only discovered this app in 2023 is a Work in Progress (WIP) It will take a while. Thanks for reading. If you would like to see all the You Tube shorts / reels for our travel routes in one playlist, please click here TRAVEL BLOG ROUTES Intro TICK LIST This is an overall list of the motorhome-travel blogs that currently have travel blog route maps, it is for obvious reasons work in progress NOTE some where the travel route videos are repeated are not expanded in detail here to conserve space on this page but are available embedded within the blog itself.

Discover our four big motorhome adventures across Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the USA, with stories, routes and memories that shaped our love of life on the road. Our Four Big Motorhome Adventures Across Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Beyond Keef & Annie's Big Trips Over the Year WELCOME TO MOTORHOME TRAVELS BLOG The Big Trips page gathers together the four major motorhome adventures that shaped the heart of Motorhome Travels. It’s a place where long‑distance journeys, once lived and loved, are now preserved as stories, photos, and memories for anyone curious about life on the road. Each trip represents a different chapter in your travelling life, spanning continents, climates, and stages of familyhood, yet all connected by the same spirit of exploration. The page introduces these journeys as defining milestones — the kind of trips that stay with you long after the miles have passed. From the vast landscapes of Australia to the sweeping wilderness of Canada, from the dramatic coastlines of New Zealand to the open roads of the USA, each adventure is presented as both a travelogue and a personal time capsule. Visitors can dive into detailed diaries, route maps, galleries, and reflections that capture not just where you went, but how it felt to be there. Rather than offering quick snapshots, the page invites readers to settle in and wander through each story at their own pace. It highlights the joy of slow travel, the charm of discovering new places from the comfort of a motorhome, and the way these big trips shaped your understanding of the world. There’s a sense of growth woven through the narrative — the evolution of your travelling style, the changing dynamics of family life, and the deepening appreciation for the freedom of the open road.
