Hello and welcome to the forum  wave  I'm sure you'll have a great time with your new van. We have a Symphony which is similar.

Welcome to the forum. You'll not regret your new buy and I wish you many happy years with it.

Don't try to share things between home and the van. That way you are bound to forget something unless you are very organised.  Don't let the words " It might come in useful so I'll take it..."  pass your lips !

Hello and welcome from sunny Lancashire.  It took us a year to finally get our storage right, moving things about, taking stuff we didn't use.   Have it to a fine art now, sleeping bags and pillows stuffed in the van, always replenish the staples, tea, coffee etc on our return.  Step, hook up cable, table and chairs live in the van on the premise that if I don't take them out I can't forget them. Wash bags and towels in as well.  Top tip, don't take too many clothes, you can always wash and go, we have a little hanging dryer that we put in the awning. Most of all enjoy your new 'toy'.

Two things that help if space is limited: use cushions instead of pillows so that they double as scatter cushions during the day ( put a pillow case on them at night ) and buy some of the roll- up ( ie the ones that don' t need a vacuum cleaner to suck the air out )vacuum storage bags to keep spare clothes eg fleeces etc when you are camping " between  seasons" . It's surprising how much you can pack away in them.
