Six Shortcuts to Stress-Free Camping
- Molo, you will start. Take advantage of the ready-to-camp or rustic chalets to quietly introduce yourself to the reality of family camping.
- You will benefit from twinning. Go camping with friends or family to benefit from their experience and equipment.
- You will bring ready-to-eat meals. Why not complete your batch cooking menu with a few dishes that require little or no preparation?
- You will do the setting up and visualization. Take the time to prepare in advance the food you will need during the stay and to plan all the necessary kitchen utensils so that you can fully relax when the time comes!
- You will not sulk about your comfort. Do not hesitate to bring what is necessary for your comfort and happiness! Camping equals smiles, not martyrdom!
- You will not neglect to practice. Avoid the "I should have" by carrying out a pilot afternoon or a test night in your yard!
