In order to custom build our caravan we have invested in a digital online business. What that means is we can travel disguised as grey nomads and do what grey nomads do, either on the black top or off-grid, while running our business from our mobile office.

The term “grey nomad” is common in Australia, meaning someone past retirement age, or more than 55 years old, embarking on long-term trips in specialized vehicles like motor homes, camper trailers, or caravans

Making Things Happen!!!

Our goal is to work from anywhere, any time, on any device as long as we have access to the internet.

Having the means and opportunity to operate from our setup anywhere, anytime, on any device is a game changer for us. It is now possible to run our digital and traditional home office thanks to the technological advancements in the Caravan and Camping Industry.

We are in our 21st year of running a traditional marketing background https://www.teknacool.com.au and now we can make the most of our door to door and direct marketing skills help us connect with those in the Caravan and Camping industry Australia-Wide.

Our prospects could either be locals or other travellers doing big lap trips.

Ford Ranger Wildtrak: Meet legends Sam and Ryan (shaking my hand) from NextRide Malaga. They looked after us to make sure we were happy with our purchase. Look them up. Many of you know we only ENDORSE those who look after their clients. They did an excellent job of "sprucing up" our Ford Ranger Wildtrak and went the extra mile not knowing the influence we carry not only in Western Australia, but Australia-Wide and Internationally through our Global Business.

So go talk to Ryan or Sam and tell them we sent you. At NEXTRIDE Malaga we found our tow vehicle, so we can tow our camper trailer comfortably so we could operate our mobile home office where ever we find ourselves. Our 2011 Ford Ranger Wildtrak has a bullbar, winch, snorkle, spotlights, roof rack, awning, 3 inch lift, dual battery system and much more.

Action speaks louder ...

We are pleased that our mobile home and office on wheels will allow us to take on the challenges of living off the grid before needing to stock up. We balance our life doing our work and enjoying the grey nomad way of doing things.

This was the Ford Ranger Wildtrak when we bought it and they went the "extra mile" to present to us a smick vehicle. Once again they had no idea of who we were and treated us like we were special. Oh yeah we had a lot of fun in the process too!!!! One of treasures of being Digital Entrepreneurs with a Global Business across many nations including Canada, USA, Europe etc etc is it helps us fund what we do and we help a lot of people find Financial Freedom.

Starting the Right Way: To ensure we are able to do the things we want to do, and have cash reserves so we don't have to worry about money, we have decided to settle for a Camper Trailer to get us started. It was a choice of paying $160,000 now and freak out or pay $2,000 to get started.

Financial FREEDOM starts when you turn your finances over to God. He is the owner and we are His money mangers.

We must steward well our time, energy, money, talents and gifts.

When it comes to our caravan we are needing one that will host a club lounge. To get us used to the whole club lounge concept check out this overview of the Austrack Plenty X Model.

We love that this model has a Club Lounge (that could be made into a bed) and 2 x double beds. (front and rear of the Club Lounge.)

How awesome is this?

The Austrack Plenty X is cost effective and we are in great health so we could pack down and set up without breaking our backs. Besides the Plenty X has plenty of you beaut stuff ... as well.

Our Camper Trailer Upgrade Plans: Since we modifed our way of thinking in the way of doing things; we are able to achieve a lot more by doing things gradually. It's a lot more effective and easier way.

What that means is we can upgrade gradually and we have done our due diligence on the Austrack Plenty X Model. This upgrade is about $30,000.

Note Well: Money is not the most important thing by any means BUT it does affect everything that is important.

In fact Jesus spoke more about money than heaven, hell and love combined.

This video provides a comprehensive walkthrough of the Plenty X camper trailer, covering its features, setup, and annex. Darren, the host demonstrates how to set up the camper, including extending the poles, attaching the annex, and securing the boat rack.

With practice we will absolutely master it. Lol We pray!!!

Our Caravan Upgrade: After we have done a bit of travelling across WA and a trip across Australia on our Austrack Plenty X Camper Trailer we will then need to choose which caravan manufacturer to choose from. Urban Caravans OR Great Aussie Caravans. Both around the $160,000 mark.

We believe that during our trips on our Camper Trailers we will be able to see what works for us and our needs. We are also expecting that by being in the field we will be able to ask relevant questions with those whom we come into contact with.

We are aware that there is no perfect caravan setup and there will be problems, that's why there are warranties.

JUST A MINUTE!!! It is Thursday 8th May 2025 and while browsing YouTube I came across one of my favourite people, Graham Cahill.

He doesn't make endorsements unless he has tested the products himself.

We have discovered OPUS Camper Trailers.

Wait, Wait, Wait!!!

So I had to do some due diligence, didn't I?

As business owners we totally understand that Google and Social Media are our friends. I just love the power of YouTube and search engines.

Look at what I have found. Wow! I was fascinated with the OPUS 4 TLX and its setup and pack down capabilities thanks to Air Beam Technology.

The price: $36,999 + On-road costs and extra for accessories.

Several factors we have found that contribute to the rapid growth of the Caravans Market:

1. Portability and Mobility: The compact form factor of Caravans allows users to carry them effortlessly, enabling seamless productivity and connectivity anytime, anywhere.

2. Versatility and Flexibility: 2-in-1 convertibles and detachable laptops offer the flexibility of using the device as both a laptop and a tablet, catering to various user preferences.

3. Advancements in Technology: Continuous advancements in processor technology, battery life, and connectivity options have significantly enhanced the performance and efficiency of Caravans.

4. Remote Work Culture: The global shift towards remote work has accelerated the demand for portable devices that support remote collaboration and productivity.

This is where technological advancement rocks!!!
