Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back. We break down life in a camper van: where to find water, how heating works, what to do about electricity, and where to look for overnight spots. 7 countries, hundreds of places, and an honest account — from the mountain roads of Turkey to the coastline of Montenegro.
Comprehensive review of all RV and camper toilet types: cassette, portable, gravity, vacuum, macerating, dry flush, sealing, incinerating, composting and separating. Comparison of models, consumables, installation and annual costs.
British camper manufacturer Wheelhome has changed its Dashaway eRC project from a specialized capsule for a Tesla Model 3 into a universal trailer due to a lack of orders. The new Dashaway eCT model, weighing 340 kg, is designed to be towed by any car and will be presented in February 2026. It features a lithium battery, an 18-liter compressor fridge, and a water system.
The German startup Hannes Camper has updated the interior design and introduced new kitchen technology for its camper vans based on the Citroën Jumper and Fiat Ducato. The key innovation is an integrated gas stove with a ceramic glass surface for easier cleaning. The base Viica 54 model, measuring 5.4 meters, starts at 74,900 euros, but the standard battery limits off-grid capability.
The Carstay T-01 electric camper van debuted at the Fukuoka Mobility Show in Japan. It is based on an ELEMO-L commercial van, features a 43.5 kWh battery and a 370W solar panel, and has a starting price of 9.95 million yen. The company also presented a concept for mobile living and production bases, projecting the Japanese camper van market to reach 5 trillion yen by the 2030s.
On July 31, a car and caravan overturned on the N57 near Ouddorp. Two people and two cats were checked by medics; no hospitalisation was needed. The road was temporarily closed, causing long queues.
The Lansingerland First Aid Association is urgently looking for a new storage location for its event caravan, as the current site will no longer be available. The organization prefers a free location in or around Lansingerland. The caravan is used at events such as King's Day, the Avondvierdaagse, and sports competitions, and contains first aid supplies and a defibrillator. President Wilco van den Helder emphasizes that the caravan also provides shelter and privacy for treating injuries. The association, formed in 2024 from a merger of two groups, asks residents and businesses to offer a shed, warehouse, or other suitable space.
Dutch research institute TNO is developing ultra-thin solar film based on perovskite cells for caravans and motorhomes. With nearly €50 million in subsidies, the innovation is expected to be market-ready within four years. The film is much lighter than conventional panels and can be applied directly to the vehicle's surface. First models are expected around 2030.
The parking lot of the Groot Hoogwaak care home in Noordwijk, previously free for beachgoers, now charges €40 per day for non-residents. The measure aims to deter campers and day-trippers from using the private lot, after staff and residents often found no spaces.

According to RDC data, Rijswijk has 230 motorhomes and 588 caravans registered. The number of caravans has decreased from 624 to 588 over five years, while the average empty caravan weight is 1,065 kg, below the national average of 1,102 kg. The weight increase in new models is linked to added amenities like separate showers and air conditioning.
