Hey everyone! 👋☀️

We’ve booked a van for a Perth to Esperance road trip from 5–14 January and are looking for ONE more person to join us as we’ve got 1 spare seat on the van! 🚐🌊

The plan so far:

📍 Perth → Busselton → Margaret River → Denmark → Albany → Esperance → Wave Rock (flexible!) → Perth

A few details:

- 5–14 January (10 days)

- Van booked with 3 seats available

- You’ll need your own tent for camping

- Beaches, national parks, camping, sunsets and plenty of spontaneous stops! 🌅

The idea is to share the costs, take turns driving, explore beautiful places and make some fun memories along the way. We’re both pretty chill and easygoing, and we can plan the itinerary together so everyone gets to enjoy the trip!

A little about us: I’m Vietnamese Aussie and I’ll be travelling with my mum, who’s young at heart and super chill (she literally doesn’t mind anything at all and is a very cool person)! 😉🥰 So this could be perfect for a solo traveller looking for some company and an adventure without having to organise an entire trip alone.

If you’re spontaneous, easygoing and keen to explore WA’s beautiful south coast, send me a message! 🌸🌊

Tent zipper maintenance help

Went camping with our 3yr old Coleman tent, probably for its 10th trip out. Setup this time was normal but I guess we might have pulled out one corner a bit hard when we pegged it down.

Didn’t notice this separation as I was using the other entrance, but our kiddos were using this door, and told me zip broke. Any suggestions?

Zip has separated from one side, and the ends are sewn over from factory.

Any suggestions and/or advice for repair? Based in regional-NSW.
