Mr. and Mrs. Gibbons traveled around Australia with three children (Domain photo)
When any "dreamer" perceives that he or she is not fit for a nine-to-five painful job, they make a decision to travel, often at the expense of past or future savings.
Conceptually, we can`t price the experience clearly. But is it possible to travel around Australia for a small amount of money?
The Tasmanian couple Kabi Gibbons (Kirby Gibbons) and Jacob Gibbons (Jacob Gibbons) spent most of the year traveling around Australia with three children at an average cost of A $5 a day, according to Domain.
Jacob said the couple had discussed traveling around Australia many times, but not seriously, just that one day they would pack up their bags and travel. Later, after Jacob finished a rather painful job, the two thought it was time to leave.
The couple sold their 35-hectare Tazhou farm and other pointless things to travel around and took three children on their way.
Mr. and Mrs. Gibbons drove a fully functional, self-sufficient electric vehicle. Jacob thinks it`s the best investment they`ve ever made.
"the RV is designed for free camping and can store hundreds of litres of water with bathrooms and showers," Jacob said. So, we can stop somewhere for two to three weeks, completely self-sufficient, and the electricity comes from solar energy. "
Jacob revealed that he used multiple software to reduce spending, such as Fuel Map, the oil price software, and Wiki Camps, the camping software.
During the first year of the trip, the Gibbons spent an average of A $5 a day on accommodation because they could find low-cost or free camping places.
"We were surprised that living on the road was much less expensive than living at home," Jacob said. Maintenance costs are low and bills are low. Moreover, there is no mortgage. We are also very attentive to expenses and do not often eat in restaurants. "
