Hello

My name is Gwyn Roberts, an award winning British journalist currently researching a travel book based on America's love affair with the RV.

During the research and writing of this volume I hope to talk to as many people associated with this area as humanly possible.

This would include major manufacturers, RV groups/organisations, RV events organisers and, most vitally, the ˜RV-ers' themselves.

To aid me in my research I intend to spend time in the US between the months of June and September 2007.

I will travel across the country, stopping in towns strongly associated with the RV industry and/or its end users and attending RV events.

Naturally, I would appreciate any information/advice/useful suggestions you could send me but most importantly I would like the opportunity to meet full-time RV-ers with interesting stories and perspectives about their full-time lifestyle.

Please email me (gwynr99@yahoo.com) if you would like to take part and we can begin the process of arranging times and dates.

Many thanks,

Gwyn Roberts

Gwyn, I have sent you a reply to the email I received from you.

I look forward to hearing more from you and hope you are able to attend our National Rally in Branson.

I think it is entirely possible that we could arrange for you to have some time in the meeting hall in order that you may sit and chat with some of the members, if that'd be something you'd be interested in.

There is an untold number of blogs maintained by full-timers chronicling their adventures. I suggest a search of the internet may be a wealth of contacts.
