One of my dream in my life is to get a motorhome and to travel all around the world. There are so many places to see, but travelling in an aeroplane is sometimes too expensive and you cannot enjoy the landscape you pass over to get to the place you want to go to. Travelling in a normal car, you always need to stop somewhere to lend a room, what also includes more costs. I suppose, with a motorhome you can see the landscape, rest wherever you want and spend the time you want. What's your opinion about it?

Well both of form of traveling has their pros and cons.
While traveling by air, you could do everything hassle free. You don't need to worry about how you room will smell, what are you going to eat tonight, who is going to cook etc.
But if you are into landscapes and enjoying doing everything on your own rather than paying others. Motor-home might actually be a very good Idea.
Also keep in mind, anything gone wrong on the motor-home could ruin your vacation.

It's a nice dream and a longlife project to build up your childrens future and I wish you good luck. I have got two children too. But life doesn't end there, as its offers us much more than that. Of course, our children are the most importan project and dream in our life right now, but we can dream and realize much more than that.

So maybe it's time to start to think about something else!? In my opinion, we should need some goals in our life, we only live once and should use this time completly.

Maybe, there are already some motorhomes with wings! Otherwise, there will be surely a cruiser I may use.

Back a few years ago like 2005 to 2009 I had dreams of getting a motor home. I used to look at the ones as small as a car with 2 beds inside and the ones with a triangular roof with a kitchen downstairs. In my home country we are in an economic downturn and petrol costs have increased a lot.
I passed my practical driving test in February 2010 and I had a car to drive in. I still have that car but now my son is almost 6 years old and so heavy I am saving up to buy a car with a wheelchair space plus ramp. Last summer I drove my car down to Cornwall for a week with my children. I love being able to drive on a vacation. It gives excellent freedom and all days out are then possible.
I don't think I will ever be able to afford to get a motor home with four beds. Also my 3 year old daughter suffers from travel sickness on long motor journeys. Good luck getting your motor home. It will be excellent for you.

My smaller son also had sickness problems during the travels by the car even by short journeys when he was younger, but with the time this sickness left. Maybe within some years you also will be able to realize more journeys.

yes me to I wanted to travel and get in a motorhome and go whenever. but now I cannot do those things because of gas prices and money. even thought about living in one pay it off and live in it in a few years, that way will not have to no longer pay rent and have a little money ..between bill, and rent and everything else it is hard to save up enough to do anything, unless you already have some put back...good ideas , good places to go..just be careful and if you can just do it..be happy..

Nowadays, it's really difficult to afford all the costs of a normal life. But even so, we should not leave to dream and to fight for our goals. As I usually say: nothing is impossible!

That's really a nice dream.Travelling around the world or in your country would be an unforgettable experience.But motorhomes are costly,very costly.I too would have loved to travel in a motorhome,but I can't afford buying it.
One of my long cherished dream is to travel across my country,India,on foot.Walikg long distances has been my hobby since when I was a teenager.I dream of travelling across my country on foot facing all troubles that it involves.

India is also a nice country which I would like to visit once in my life, I've never been there. But if I have once the possibility to travel across on foot, I rather would prefer to walk through that places Jesus travelled through. I hope that you will reach once your dream.

I've already read a bit about your country and saw some films and saw some reports. It must be really beautyfull there. One place I would like to visit is the Taj Mahal. It must be very beautyfull there.

I recommend that you go to New Zealand. It is a beautiful country and one can easily rent a van to travel around the country and they even have a radio just for travelling. That radio can follow your whereabouts via a GPS system and they can point out to you places to visit and make comments about history. One feels as if one had a travel guide coming along with you! Fantastic idea, so that is my opinion.

This option sounds nice, maybe I could consider it. Thank you for your advice.

I agree with you, just to travel between the country each other is unspeakable pleasure, because traveling by plane person can not see the contents of the road between the country of stunning scenes and breathtaking nature.

And you can stop wherever you want and take your time you need, just more independently.

I have not seen a motorhome before in my life. At least not a real one. The first time I saw some people using it was in a American movie or drama. I was wondering how are they able to live in their car. So I had always been wondering how it is like to have a motorhome and travel and stay in it at the same time. I guess I won't have the chance to see one unless I travel overseas. It should be fun.

A motorhome is really nice, like a very small apartment on wheals, you find inside basicly everything you need. Hopefully, you may see one or more in your life.

That's right, some dreams need like a special preparation, before we will be able to realize them.

If we have a landscape near to where we live, we also may go by bicycle. If we don't have any goal in our life, we don't save for it. But if you have one, a goal, we usual sit down and think about how we can realize our goal, our dream, we search for solutions and then, you surely will find the way to catch it.

That's right, the world offers many places, cultures, idealogies and history to show. Travelling is an interesting way to study all of this and many other interesting points.

It's really hard to say because the cost factors in all of these situation are different and is always changing at times. But like I always say, do whatever makes you happy.

Almost everything costs money. But having a purpose, you can start to save for it and think about how to get the money you need.

Travelling is also a way to learn from other people, countries, cultures... I think it makes the person (the traveller) rich in a special way.

Back in college, all my classmates told me they want to buy a house the moment they earned enough money when they get their first job. I told them, i would buy a car because i love driving and i like travelling. I wanted to travel by land and enjoy scenery. AFter a couple of years, i met one of my classmates and the first thing she asked me was if I was able to buy a car already. I said no. The truth is, back in our college days, I already have a car of my own. I just didn't drive it to school since i live nearby and i could just walk.
So you can just tell what my opinion about this.

Travelling by car is also very nice. When I was a child, we usually went by holidays by car. I also got my first car when I still went to school, but I only used it when I didn't reach the bus. I rather prefered to go to school by bus (my school wasn't near enough to walk to it).

Thank you for your wishes. You are right, every dream has got its moment to be realized. It's up to each one to recognize this special moment. What about your dreams? Do you have any special one?

Life is all you have in there and depend on how you handle it, if you handle it so curiously its left to you and if its so simple its also yours, but we need to work toward our aim and achievements in life

That's right, at the end the only thing we take with us when we leave is what we have done with our life.

That's beautiful. I want one, too. But what about the costs of fuel when you drive long distance? Hahah

I suppose, who buys a motorhome also thinks about those costs. You also need an insurance and other items to fill it in. But even so and as you said, it's beautiful.
