Catherine Best is an award-winning travel journalist, author and editor of RV Daily who believes the best holiday homes come on two (or four) wheels. She got a taste for the RV life as a child, travelling around Australia in a 1984 Millard triple-bunk caravan, towed by an F100. Catherine and her family have since shared lots of caravaning adventures together, many of which feature in her book, Ultimate Caravan Trips Australia. A former Caravan of the Year judge, Catherine also contributes travel stories and photographs to newspapers and magazines around Australia and abroad. When she's not at the keyboard, you can find Catherine scoping out a free camp, scuba diving or sitting around an outback campfire with a glass of red.
