How I Convinced my Reluctant Partner to Take a Campervan Road Trip with Me (and Why They Actually Loved it!)

I’ve always been the adventure-seeker in my relationship, the one happiest with a coffee in hand and sand between my toes in some far-off location. So when I first learnt about campervan travel, I was immediately sold. My husband, Nigel, however, wasn’t exactly thrilled by the idea.  

Where I loved the idea of waking up in the Outback, completely untethered, he preferred the comfort of hotels and the structure of a city getaway. So when I suggested an Australia road trip in a campervan, he wasn’t convinced. But after some careful planning, lots of conversations, and addressing his concerns, we have since gone on plenty of campervan trips together that he now admits he loves and even looks forward to!  

If you’re in a similar boat with a hesitant partner, I totally understand. In this post, I’ll share how I tackled his (very common) concerns, used effective communication strategies to make sure we were on the same page, and ultimately showed Nigel the joys of campervan travel. By the end, I hope you’ll feel confident that even a reluctant partner can fall in love with the open road!
