In Brief

Residents of Oostdijk on Goeree-Overflakkee offer free overnight stays for camper vans via WOMO. Season lasts until October.

Piet and Astrid from Oostdijk on the island of Goeree-Overflakkee have opened their driveway for free overnight stays for camper vans through the platform Welkom op mijn Oprit (WOMO). It is one of three such spots on the island participating in the international network.

The WOMO community has 26,000 members and 550 driveways across Europe, as well as in New Zealand, Canada, and Ecuador. Unlike the previous initiative Welcome to My Garden, where guests could pitch a tent in the garden, here campers only stop on the driveway. The stay is free, but campers must be self-sufficient; hosts may offer electricity and water.

Over the summer, the couple hosts guests almost every week, with visitors coming from Germany and other regions. Piet and Astrid, themselves campers, note that talking with guests lets them discover new places, such as Kapelle in Zeeland or Seroskerke. The season lasts until October, after which the hosts will set off on their own trip.

Camperbeurs Hardenberg, held from 18 to 20 September at Evenementenhal Hardenberg, will feature a record number of activities: 50 presentations across three theatres and more than 150 exhibitors in eight halls. The programme includes talks by influencers, experts and builders, covering topics from travel to technical advice. Organisers call it the largest edition of the show to date.

The Welkom op mijn Oprit (WOMO) network connects motorhome owners with around 550 hosts offering free overnight parking on private property. Founded in 2024 by Lieke Kooyman, the initiative has about 26,000 members. Stays are typically limited to one night, motorhomes must be self-contained, and hosts cannot charge. WOMO only facilitates contact, leaving compliance with local rules to the parties.
