The road trip of a lifetime will be sweetened by the taste of home for South Australian caravanning enthusiasts Linda Bloffwitch and Grant Hanan.
As winners of the Dometic Follow the Sun campaign the couple received a $25,000 caravan makeover to enjoy as they journey down the East Coast fundraising for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support life-changing research.
They were given the pick of Dometic’s premium leisure range, selecting a new air conditioner, fridge, toilet, awning, privacy screen, hot water service, gas heater and caravan door.
A wine fridge was another addition the Kangarilla couple could not pass up.
“We live in the middle of South Australia’s wine region and have a 1000 bottle wine fridge at home. We always travel with some decent bottles and it will be lovely to keep them at a good temperature rather than in socks under the bed,” Ms Bloffwitch said.
“It is like we have bottled up a small piece of home, which is a nice treat when you are on the road for a long time.
“The new technology in the fridge uses far less power, which is one thing everyone strives for, and the air-conditioner oscillates. Anyone who has slept in a caravan during summer knows what a wonderful difference that will make.”
Linda and Grant will join their fellow Dometic Follow the Sun winners in Cairns on 1 August to start their journey. They will be holding ‘Follow the Sun – Happy Hours’ at pre-determined stops along the way.
