If you have interweb access a 6 month diary would be great. A friend of mine has just been laid off at Bombardier and that is his plan now, until they find a property in France to renovate.
enjoy it, but it wouldnt be me doing that.
i would be on a narrow boat. lol.
OP do you let your house furnished or do you have to shift all the furniture out & put it in store every time?
Dam wish i could do that im jealous,but best of luck. Would be good to see some pics!
Folk round here do similar for winter, because winters are usually so harsh in the area I live people just hook up to their campers which are about twice the size of the biggest damm caravan or motorhome in the UK and head off to Florida or the gulf states. Sdaly I can’t afford to do it, giving up my job for winter would be very risky and would result in loss of all benefits and security.
Enjoy it while you can.
Good on yer Matte 
we have got loads of them over here called The Grey Nomads, some of them set off for six months and carry on doing it for a couple of years.
