RV FEATURE
An Apple Watch can be a great tool for free camping .
Another good idea , if you have limited freezer space , is to run your car fridge as a freezer . Keep in mind that running your car fridge in this way will deplete your batteries a bit quicker , depending on the ambient temperatures .
If you have a small freezer in your van ’ s fridge , consider running your car fridge as a freezer .
HOT TIP :
Keeping food fresh can sometimes be a challenge , especially when free-camping . Fortunately , some very clever people have shared their food storage secrets on the internet .
For example , if you want to keep strawberries fresh , take them out of the plastic container they come in and put them in a glass jar with the lid on . Also , you can keep most green veggies , such as lettuce and celery , fresh by wrapping them up in aluminium foil .
KEEPING THINGS GOING
As a general rule , we recommend travellers have the ability and knowledge to fix most minor issues themselves . After all , caravans are homes on wheels so things are likely to fail and break from time to time . However , when you ’ re free-camping , being able to diagnose and fix issues with your gear is almost essential .
