Nothing better than having your house at hand and travel with everything you want. No need to choose between the children bicycles or the kitchen utensils of Mom, everything fits in the motorhome ! And what more than being on the other part of the world.
The meeting with the local
The advantage of traveling by motorhome is also enjoying the nature (lake, forest, ..) or discover the local (regional products, tourist places, …). It is also a way of meeting new people from different backgrounds, motorhome drivers or not, to share good times.
A controlled budget
Here, we go, a big advantage of traveling by motorhome is that you can control your budget ! No need to eat to the restaurant… No need for looking for a hotel… You are hungry? Just cook what you like! Tired ? A quick nap in the camper and let’s go!
Unfortunately, traveling by motorhome is also a disadvantage…
A house a little too big…
The motorhome is a big vehicle, so it is sometimes difficult to find a place to sleep or just to stop. Moreover, the motorhome can not go anywhere, you have to be careful !
