Stevew, this is something i have been wondering also recently,
A european large spec mobile home might be a perfect solution to a lot of our needs......
There is a company in Cebu converting seafreight containers into habitable conditions.
A mobile home would be an instant "plug & play solution until such times as we did more on planning and self builds.
The only issue in a lot of the provinces would be delivery access!!
Certainly worth more investigation i think......
Hey Alan I've been looking in to those converted sea containers...very interesting
If you have a good look on youtube, there are basic, to spectacular homes built from several containers.
me too think it would be a great idea, lots of land with fantastic views and just a caravan on it , what more would we want
Sim, i have seen some expanding ones used for military hopsitals etc they are awesome. It would be so easy to make 2 or 3 story with easy facility to make veranda,balcony etc etc.
Im sure though planning permission would be similarto a brick build, but if like SteveW says a caravan with "wheels" it should change things in our favour...
Im sure Doc will buy in to "Skeggie in the east".....
Stevew, have a look at this http://containerliving.net/
Not sure which one Sim is familar with....
Alan yes it was that site...Matt Wilkie who is a member here www.tropicalpenpals.com
Great stuff!
if there was a good market for british style caravans i would be there like a shot- as its my line of work
the company i currently work for- tho another division- build modular units- which are taking off in a big way, and having been inside one they are fantastic inside

might be of interest
You can buy cheap pre-fab nippa huts in Mindanao,they erect them in a day,got to be better than a shipping container(think of the heat)or a caravan
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
I read the thread title half expecting you'd had a brainwave of touring around the Phils with a 6 birth Eldis on the back of at trike or a jeepney
Ian if we had the jeepney we wouldn't need the Eldis...im sure we could have fun converting that icon to resemble the V dub camper............

Very true Alan
i dont think it needs any converting, you can easily sleep 2 on each side bench, throw a foam mattress on the floor and an other half a dozen will fit there. Who needs catering and toilet facilities?
Pinoys are very adoptive when it comes to assembly...if they can build a jeepney am sure they can knock you together a caravan
Yes, I can spell, Just can't tpye
