This really
depends on where you are. For me, one of the best things about camping is
eating local cuisine (for breakfast and lunch though, dinners in my camp is
always the same, pasta and knacki and sauce- cooked in one pot, on
the little cooker).
In Belgium, eat frites and waffles! In France, go to the baker’s
first thing and line up and bonjour your way to some amazing fresh bread. As my
camping holidays usually involve sitting on a French roadside waiting for the
cyclists to whizz by, lunch is usually a rustic affair- French bread and ham,
but breakfast is where its at! Pastries and cakes and waffles !
Ok, I got a little carried away there, lets go back to basics.
Little camping stoves. Pretty easy to use, make sure you keep
your matches out of the rain, have a kettle you can put on a hob, and if you
only have 1 hob rather than 2, plan meals you can just put in one pot- stews,
pasta etc. Washing up wise, there will be some nice big sinks in the
sanitaires, it’s a nice time to make polite conversation with fellow campers- I
know it’s very unbritish- but you’re not British anymore, you’re a camper.
Also, if you’re in Europe, you’re in the perfect situation to
sample the local alcohol! If you’re in northern Europe, you’d be an idiot not
to try those Belgian/Dutch/polish beers, obviously if you’re in France, wine
and champers.
Even if you hate camping, you’ve got to love drinking and
eating.
