We first discovered camping 18 years ago. First with self-built buses and since 2010 with luxury factory vans. We think the nice thing about a bus camper is that you get to places where the large campers cannot reach. For example, on holiday in the south of England we came to campsites where the hedge along the road was literally too tight for everything that was wider than our bus. We ended up in a true paradise.

We would like to camp instead of camping. It doesn't have to be extremely luxurious, but we do want a few necessary facilities on board. For us, these are spacious beds for 4 people, a cooker, a refrigerator and a toilet. In a compact format as possible, the Nugget was the most ideal camper van. We have now exchanged it for a slightly larger one that really has everything on board and at 5.41 meters is still compact enough: a Pössl Vario 545.

With the big holiday we usually go to France, Germany, England, Norway, Sweden, Austria, Switzerland and Spain. France is our absolute favorite.

I am a Nugget fan and I am active on the Dutch nugget forum. I can also always be found at the annual Nugget meeting.
