A family from Hamm-Bockum-Hövel travels across Germany in a caravan with custom graffiti. They purchased a used travel trailer for 4,500 euros and invested an additional 1,000 euros in its customization by an artist who depicted the family members' favorite animals. The couple and their 12-year-old daughter primarily take weekend trips within North Rhine-Westphalia.
