People go to Europe for a lot of reasons, but many people don’t realize the abundant amount of places to camp there. If you like camping you can see a lot of Europe much more cheaply than you would if you stayed in hotels, and you can get back to nature with some beautiful places to stay and see the scenery. One of these is Three Cliffs Bay, Gower. It has huge, panoramic views of the coastline and the beach is accessible from the site even though the climb up and down is a bit steep. It’s never a packed place because there isn’t a car-park close enough for a lot of the campers who...

What they will have, though, are a lot of different people from different walks of life and different places all over the world. You can learn a lot about...

Camping can be a fun and inexpensive outdoor vacation for the entire family. It provides fresh air, stunning views and a chance for the family to bond. There are some downsides to vacations in the great outdoors though; pests can be a nuisance and even a danger so come prepared and know what to avoid. Wasps are a species that includes yellow jackets and bees and they’re common in warm climates. They nest in trees and under overhangs in the late spring and early summer. Sometimes they’ll nest in the ground which is particularly hard to see and therefore more of a danger. They’re attracted...

A LOT of my favorite childhood memories involve family camping trips. We loved to spend time in the outdoors. We saw the beauty of nature up close. Our summers were full of nature and fresh air.

There are three basic types of camping tents: those that leak, those that let the mosquitoes in, and those pesky ones you can’t set up at all. Be prepared to bring a tent that leaks along on your trip. You’ve waited all year for your hard-earned vacation week, and it is sure to rain in buckets. Most camping tents feature mesh screens; it turns out these are simply for ventilation, and not even intended to ‘screen’ out insects. Remember: the more remote, rugged, or secluded your campsite is, the more varieties of hungry indigenous insects. The seasoned camper won’t...

In Europe, hotel charges bite far deeper into budgets than you would sometimes expect. In Britain there is the inexpensive alterative of bed and breakfast. This does not exist to such an extent in the rest of Europe. One way of getting around this, particularly for friends planning to travel together around the Continent, is hiring a car and, in summer, staying at camp sites. Europeans are fond of the outdoors and there are camp sites wherever people holiday. There are, perhaps, three types of camping: luxury, pretty snazzy and bring your own tent. Which you select is up to your budget and style. But...
