My partner and I have a rented campsite that we go to once a summer.
All of us have slowly gotten better at it.
At first we used to take our family minivan and all sorts of camping equipment. My partner and I would pitch a tent, make a fire and be fine, once we had kids they informed us that it wasn’t good enough. All of us then tried using a camper; Driving the camper was a problem since I was the only one who could drive it. If I wanted to get drinks, toilet paper or a book in town, I would take our family bed, dining room and toilet. The kids complained bitterly about the beds too. My son hates that his bed was so close to the ceiling and hot. My daughter basically did not enjoy sleeping in our dining room. My partner and I didn’t want to lose our camping spot. So I started researching and found that you can get a mobile shipping container setup somewhere. It can be almost like a tiny home. My partner and I now have a shipping container camp home. It has a dining room, bathroom and two home offices. My kids share a part and our partner and I do. All of us have electricity, plumbing and Heating and A/C in there… Everyone loves this set up way more. My partner can leave some canned goods and non-perishables to save cash on food. The kids leave some clothing in the place. I now can drive our small truck to the campsite and anyone can borrow it now. It is so much more convenient.
