tips for females travelers -serious thread- no males joking please

1. An extra tip regarding the amount of water used for washing up. Instead of squirting washing up liquid into a bowl full of water, just put a small amount of water into your bowl, an inch or two, and squirt a small amount of washing up liquid onto a sponge. As long as you only put the sponge into the water very briefly then you ill be able to wash up with very little water and just a spot of liquid.

2. Forget cleaning products, a small bottle of white vinegar, very cheap to buy, and a small packet of bicarbonate of soda will clean everything. You can also make a mix of part vinegar (10%) part water (90%) and put into a spray bottle. The bicarb is only really needed for stubborn stains.
 
in my van I use a largish plastic mixing bowl for my washing up bowl... it has a small base, angled sloping sides and holds less than half the water of a traditional bowl - I also use the sponge way of washing up too...

another slobby way to not use too many resources is to eat food out of the receptacle you cooked it in

We don't do balmy sunny evenings up north it's a poncho blanket or if you are from the posh parts of Yorkshire a smangle silky doesn't get a look in.

No way! Himself can eat far faster than me! Mind you, I do try to COOK it all in my nice deep frying pan, which saves on pans, and there is nothing like a wipe down of a plate with a bit of damp kitchen towel to save too much washing up. Wasn't it Quentin Crisp who used to advocate the re-using of un-washed plates, as it added extra flavour to the next meal, but he did say you should never go past what he called the fish barrier! :tongue:

What you want is a warm pair of arms & a pair of soft lips nibbling your..............................

Oh, stop it you silly old fool, give it good whack with a table spoon, that'll sort it out.
 
Water usage is not something we've ever felt the need to restrict, from day one the whole 'raison d'etre' of building the trailer and now the Mercedes conversion was and is to provide as a bare minimum a decent toilet and shower. We've slummed it too many times to not want them, even if we are miles from anywhere.

However frequent or infrequent your lovemaking may be, getting too regimented over 'where and when' tends to spoil the intimacy of it, all you need is your chosen lubricant and a box of tissues, shower afterwards or in the morning. Youngsters probably don't need the lubricant. In our case no condoms either, I had a Vasectomy back in the early 80's when both of our sons were well grown.

Yes, blokes tend to relax and have more time for intimacy when on holiday, is that surprising? :)

Most of the other stuff is OK, but is it such an issue to wash up 'normally' ? We use a fair bit of water, we have three 40L Aquarolls, but don't find it a big issue to wash up in a sink once or twice a day. We don't waste water either.

I did appreciate the input from the OP, it makes a nice change to get the feminine viewpoint on such things.
