On 27 July Germany checks motorhomes and trailers on the A31 and A30. Also: a diesel tax in Finland has left motorhomes parked up for most of the year.
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.

Organizers of Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf announced dates and ticket prices for 2026, while Caravana fair in Leeuwarden will run from January 28 to February 1.
The largest camping exhibition in Northern Netherlands, Caravana, will take place at WTC Expo Leeuwarden from January 28 to February 1, 2026. In addition to displays of motorhomes, caravans, and accessories, the event will host expert presentations, family activities, and appearances by known guests. Children up to 12 years old have free admission, and parking is also free.
A Dutch campsite owner fears large motorhomes are creating a 'white wall' effect, blocking views and spoiling the atmosphere. Small campsites are popular, but their cramped layout causes irritation.
Camping De Kleine Wereld in Onnen, Groningen, is fully booked with 400 guests currently staying. The campsite has existed in its current form for two years and is located on the site of former Camping De Fruitberg, which operated until 2000, and from 2013 to 2017 was used by the Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers (COA). Owners Bas van Engeland and his wife Elsemieke have transformed the area into a place for young families.
Dethleffs has added two new dealers in the Netherlands: Linberg Caravan Centrum in Molenschot (West Brabant) and CCR in Lemmer (Friesland). The first caravans are now on display. Linberg has been in business since 1968, while CCR sells Laika and Etrusco motorhomes and plans to expand.
In the Netherlands, parking a caravan or motorhome on a public road for more than three days can result in a fine of 130 euros plus 9 euros in administrative costs, totaling 139 euros. The rule applies in most municipalities, though the exact time limit is set by local regulations. Parking on private property is subject to different rules, and violations may lead to more expensive penalties.
Marjon van der Ven (58) from Wamel shared her experience of traveling in a camper. She started with a rental, then bought a Volkswagen van, converted it for high tea and high wine during the lockdown. After her husband's death and other events, she changed her outlook on life, travels without a plan, often with friend Janine, staying at small campsites.
Dutch conversion company Vantrac has started mass production of the Lightcamp electric camper based on the Kia PV5. Its key feature is removable modules, allowing the vehicle to be used as a cargo van on weekdays and a camper on weekends. Inside, a sliding bed measuring 188×129.5 cm is installed, and a roof pop-up tent is optional. V2L capability provides up to 3.6 kW for external devices without a generator. Price in Europe: €65,000.
The 3-3-3 rule, promoted as a camping trend for summer 2026, limits daily driving to 300 km, arrival by 3:00 PM, and a minimum stay of three nights per site. Adapted from the US version (300 miles), it aims to reduce driving stress and campsite booking pressure. In Italy, the rule suits mountainous roads and traffic, allowing travelers to explore regions more thoroughly.
