This cheerful post celebrates the glorious rise of readers over the years — from the early days of “hello? anyone out there?” to a bustling crowd of loyal followers, curious wanderers, and the occasional accidental clicker. A fun, feel‑good tribute to every single visitor who keeps the wheels turning. You can look at Round 2 Blog 50 and Round 3 Blog 178 At May 2026 we have 77518 visits on the site counter, however there are many other ways to see our visitors.

Update 20/7/12 Now 800 visitors *smile* you are most welcome 28/6/12 Just had our 700th visitor to the blog and we have only been up and running a few months. That makes us SO PROUD. Why not join in and have your say. We are about to launch an article about the Motorhome Vs Caravan. We see more and more motorhomes on the road, we feel ,for obvious reasons, in favour of the motorhome but you may have a different view. Whether its an RV, Campervan or motorhome the thing it gives you over a caravan is speed of set up and flexibility to roam and not be focused on a radius from one point i.e. the campsite where you have detached your caravan to use the car. Depends of course what you want, we want to explore and love the fact that if we like somewhere we stay for a few days , if not we move on #freedom canada in the cold, as proud of that as our ever increasing visitors, thanks folks #soproud Note Slideshow includes comments on this Blog from the old website

By keef & annie, Oct 24 2012 10:20AM Blog 50 Love You Visitors MENU Proud & Intro Historical Stats Summary So PROUD. This is our 50th BLOG! Blog 50 Love You Visitors - Think your website traffic is tiny? Motorhome‑Travels proves even the quirkiest corner of the internet can rack up visitors like a motorway café at lunchtime. This light‑hearted blog dives into the wild world of page views, surprise spikes, loyal readers, and the odd digital wanderer who definitely wasn’t looking for motorhomes. A fun, cheeky celebration of every click that keeps the journey rolling. You can look at Round 1 Blog 40 and Round 3 Blog 178 At May 2026 we have 77518 visits on the site counter, however there are many other ways to see our visitors. Take these 2 examples Visitors Map Visitors Flags Return to MENU HISTORICAL STATS At the end of 2021 (30/12/21) after reworking the Blog on WIX we have 55747 visits As at 12/2/2021 we have had 40495 visits As at 22/11/20 we have had 36363 visits As at 08/11/17 we have over 20000 visits Also take a look at Blog 40 which has some earlier information As at 11/8/13: We have now had 2297 different visitors to our site since we started from 59 different countries. By 15/11/21 we have had 52900 visits .... WOW what can I say, amazing exponential growth, hopefully this more suer friendly version created under WIX will make it ever easier for readers to find what they want Which just goes to show that the world is fascinated by Motorhomes, RVs & Campervans. Recently our soon to be daughter-in-laws parents visited from China and were fascinated by our van. In China there is hardly any concept of camping let alone people living in a motorised vehicle. We are amazed by some of the countries that have shown interest . Places you just wouldn't think they would be interested such as KENYA, LEBANON, CHILE to name but a few. #soproud UPDATE Nov 2021 This sort of country / town breakdown is now done using sophisticated Google Analytics Still we know exactly why they are interested don't we, have your say via the comments, you just need to be logged in which is easy. Motorhomes the world over *smile* fabulous old motorhomes, c 1930s this old visitor tracker code died out as Google Anayltics got better, sadly, I used to like it Return to MENU SUMMARY The blog charts a surprisingly heart‑warming journey: how a personal motorhome‑travel diary quietly evolved into a long‑running website with a loyal, steadily expanding audience. What begins as a light, humorous reflection on “visitor numbers” becomes a deeper look at how online communities form slowly, then suddenly, over time. In the early years, the site attracted only a trickle of curious wanderers — the odd motorhome enthusiast, a few friends, and the occasional accidental visitor who probably meant to search for something else entirely. But the blog shows that even modest beginnings matter. Each year brought a little more traffic, a few more returning readers, and a growing sense that people were genuinely enjoying the stories, photos, and travel logs. As the timeline moves forward, the increases become more noticeable. The blog highlights key turning points: when regular posting boosted engagement, when search engines began favouring the site, and when social‑media shares started sending new readers your way. What once felt like a niche corner of the internet gradually transformed into a recognisable travel resource with consistent monthly growth. The most striking message is how cumulative the progress has been. No single viral moment, no overnight explosion — just steady, organic expansion built on years of content, personality, and persistence. The blog celebrates this with humour, treating every spike in traffic like an unexpected gift and every new follower as another friendly passenger hopping aboard the motorhome. Ultimately, the post is a tribute to long‑term dedication. It shows how a travel blog, lovingly maintained over many years, can grow from a personal archive into a well‑visited, well‑loved space — proof that small beginnings can lead to big, meaningful audiences when you keep the wheels turning.

By keef and annie hellinger, Mar 11 2016 11:42AM Australia in a Motorhome Australia in a Motorhome - From Carnarvon to Cooktown and everywhere the sat‑nav panicked in between, we’ve crossed deserts, coastlines, and the odd kangaroo traffic jam. Four trips, countless miles, several motorhomes, and only a few “whose idea was this?” moments. Whether it was the red centre, the wet coast, or the “is this really a road?” bits, Australia kept us hooked. Dive into our routes, pics, and videos — wanderlust guaranteed. We have now been in essence from Carnarvon on the west coast above the desert right the way across the Nullarbor and up the east coast as far as Cooktown, plus thru the red centre from Darwin to Adelaide and diversions to Broome and Kunnanarra. Loved every moment of it and most of it in a Motorhome! The first occasion we only had the motorhome in Queensland, the second was our gap year where we had a motorhome on both the west and east coasts, the 3rd after Doug & Phoenix's Wedding and the 4th with our dear pals Chris & Allyson. Why not take a look at our various expeditions, writeup, pictures and videos to maybe wet your appetite!

By keef and annie hellinger, Apr 14 2016 08:08AM Harbury Fields Farm Motorhome trip No26 : April 11th- 13th 2016 A KeefH Web Designs Travel Blog NOTTS->Harbury, Warwickshire plus Royal Leamington Spa & Kenilworth Castle ->NOTTS 134 miles Harbury Fields Farm - Testing the van after its service sounded simple… until the weather declared war. Harbury Fields Farm delivered lambs, mud, and enough rain to float the motorhome. Between crochet, Cat Stevens, and dodging downpours, we even made it to Leamington Spa and Kenilworth Castle. A short break full of views, history, and very soggy socks. A cracking little trip! Having had the van serviced, both habitation and engine, we were keen to try it out locally for a few days to ensure everything was working perfectly in readiness for more major excursions. So we chose a local one a Caravan club affiliated site at Harbury Fields Farm, not far from Leamington Spa. A lovely site that we would definitely recommend right in the middle of a working farm which does both arable and livestock and at lambing season is a must. They are so gorgeous. The owners are very friendly and told us they started the site as a CL 13 years ago then added one field and now 1.5 years ago added another field. There are 3 amenities block and they cater for the disabled camper. All in all a fab site and great 360 degree views from our motorhome. Free wifi in the reception area and good phone reception across the site. The 1st day the weather wasn’t great so after a brisk walk around the farm to see the lambs we settled down to reading, crochet and hippy music listening (Cat Stevens and Pink Floyd). It bucketed down. The next day was much better and we walked down the farm drive and caught the bus into Royal Leamington spa, rather conveniently the bus stops right outside the farm entrance. Had a lovely day in town, fab architecture, great gardens and free exhibitions in the pump and spa rooms, sadly they no longer exist but the remaining hamman spa is very interesting. We had lunch and a drink in the Weatherspoons in town but food wise one would be spoilt for choice. Again it poured down over night but no problems for the van. The next day we packed up after a nice brekkie of warmed ciabatta and set off for Kenilworth castle. A wonderful place with much history including even Robert Dudley’s attempts to marry the ‘virgin’ queen. Spent a pleasant 3 hours here and then headed off back home, arriving back about 3.30 pm ROBERT DUDLEY & ELIZABETH 1st Robert Dudley’s grand performance at Kenilworth Castle in July 1575 was less a polite royal visit and more a full‑scale Elizabethan seduction campaign — complete with fireworks, lavish gardens, and purpose‑built royal apartments. Dudley, Earl of Leicester, had known Elizabeth I since childhood, and their long, emotionally charged friendship fuelled endless court gossip. His hope was simple: impress the Queen so completely that she might finally agree to marry him. During her 19‑day stay — the longest she ever spent in a courtier’s home — Dudley staged an extraordinary sequence of entertainments. He built new state apartments, created a perfumed privy garden, landscaped pleasure grounds filled with arbours and shady walks, and even commissioned a spectacular firework display over the castle’s great mere. These extravagant gestures were widely understood as his last, most ambitious attempt to win her hand. Their bond was undeniably deep. Elizabeth kept Dudley close throughout her life, and many contemporaries believed he was her true love. But political scandal — especially the suspicious death of Dudley’s wife, Amy Robsart, in 1560 — made marriage impossible. By 1575, Dudley’s Kenilworth spectacle was a final, glittering gamble. Despite all the splendour, Elizabeth left as she arrived: charmed, affectionate, but resolutely unmarried. WE HAD A GREAT TIME A great short break which I would thoroughly recommend. kenilworth castle gardens, warwickshire, queen elizabeth 1st's suitor lived here queen liz one's suitor #motorhome #motorhometravels #travelsin2016 #campsites

By keef and annie hellinger, Jul 22 2017 09:39AM Western Australia Overview In 2017 we explored Singapore, Australia , the Cook Isles & New Zealand with our dear friends Chris & Allyson. At the end of the trip Annie & I spent time in Singapore / Malaysia with our family and Chris & Allyson visited Hong Kong. Find the latest on DECADES OF TRAVEL or our TRAVEL VIDEO BLOG sites Western Australia - Head across Western Australia, where huge skies, long roads and “was that a giant termite mound or a small skyscraper?” moments keep your motorhome entertained. From rugged coastlines to red‑dust outback stretches, this blog captures the laughs, surprises and sunbaked mischief of exploring WA. Expect epic views, quirky stops and a motorhome working overtime in true Aussie adventure style. A lot of planning and pre booking went into this adventure to ensure we had a great time. We flew to Singapore for a stop over of 2 days to break the journey down under. We visited East Coast Park and the wonderful Quentin's restaurant. We arrived in Perth a bit jet lagged but excited and cruised the Swan river to Freo. After a few nights we picked up our Britz motorhomes and initially explored Monkey Mia (sadly no dolphins due to inclement weather) then onto the tropics of Western Australia and a spin in Apollo 11 at Caenarvon before doing the loop thru the Wheatbelt and Wave Rock back to Perth via Albany. Esperance and Kalgoolie at this time were off limits due to some massive rains which washed out essential roads. We then took the luxurious Indian Pacific Railway to Adelaide across the Nullarbor Plain. After that its was a quick flight to Alice Springs where we visited the fab Desert Park , ate Roo, avoided the cockroaches and pondered the insoluble Aboriginal problem. Then it was back to Adelaide to pick up another motorhome to explore some of South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales (NSW) before ending in Sydney for time with families. K&A flew down to Launceston in Tassie to visit rellies before returning to Sydney. From here we touched down in Auckland briefly before spending a fab but somewhat wet and humid week of chillin' in the Cook Isles in the Pacific ocean on the main island of Rarotonga, snorkeling, BBQ-ing or whatever took our fancy, i. lager at the Rarotonga brewery. Then its was back to Auckland to pick up another pair of motorhomes to explore both North & South island of New Zealand, crossing between the two via the Interislander ferry. After much Boysenberry ice cream we returned to the UK via 2 weeks with family in Singapore and C&A 3 days in Hong Kong. Saw so much and had such a fun time shared with our pals. What an amazing journey - travel definitely broadens the mind. Western Australia in particular In our Britz hired vans. Arrived in Perth, WA from Singapore. We saw the town before picking up the motorhomes and seeing Monkey Mia, Carnarvon, Rottnest Island & the adorable quokkas, Margaret River, Cape Leeuwin, Albany, Northam, Wave Rock, the wheat belt and a whole lot more before picking up the wonderful Indian Pacific railway to Adelaide. Our van at Monkey Mia, Western Australia, sadly the only 2 days of the year the dolphins didn't arrive If you want to see the more of the 2017 trip in Western Australia then click this link thanks I have also included a slideshow of all our trips up to 2017 in map graphical format, to see it click HERE Plus a quick summary video with lovely Clannad / Paul Young soundtrack Travels up to 2017 After this major trip, we still have a pin map to fill in sometime never 😉 #motorhome #motorhometravels #travelsin2017 #campsites #majortrip #family #friends
