Two caravanners are gearing up to set off on a 10,000-mile journey across 27 countries as part of their wedding celebrations.
James Kenny and Donna Collins tied the knot on July 31st and will be taking a honeymoon with a twist, in a journey that will see them complete 1,000 miles for every year that they have been together.
Mr Kenny told the BBC: "People [either] think we're completely insane or they think it's a great idea and wish they were doing something like it themselves."
In a journey that may show the importance of caravan insurance, the couple will be travelling across Norway and Finland, Russia and Ukraine and then Spain and Portugal in their 25-year-old Swift Corniche caravan.
They then hope to take their vehicle overseas to Morocco.
"It's just to do something a little bit different," said Mr Kenny.
"We've both had fancy holidays before but this is life on the open road."
Caravan enthusiasts hoping to undertake a similarly long trip should ensure their caravan insurance covers all possibilities, such as meeting the costs of repair should their vehicle break down while abroad or have an accident while driving on unfamiliar roads.
