Traveler in motorhome faces difficulties in Teriberka

Margarita Kulchenko, author of the blog 'Margo on the Way', shared problems encountered during a trip to Teriberka (Murmansk region). Water for the motorhome had to be poured manually, as campsites refused the service even for a fee. She also noted the large number of tourists, making it hard to find a spot with a view. Despite this, after the main tourist flow left, she enjoyed the nature and plans to visit the Rybachy Peninsula.
