Comments:

We were working for the first half of February, not traveling and staying for free with family. This kept costs down, although we did spend nearly $500 on the caravan. Once we started traveling again mid Feb, we  traveled the mountainous NSW South Coast, so fuel consumption was more than usual. 

We managed to get a discount deal on accomodation in a caravan park while staying on the coast. The deal with Travel Auction meant our stay was under $20 per night! Perfect! 

Overall our expenses are on track, given we stopped for work. They are even slightly below what we would normally expect.
