Read moreWow, what a trip to the desert we have experienced! We travelled from Zagora straight into the Sahara, not far from the border with Algeria. Hour after hour through three types of desert: sand, rock and what is neither one nor the other, but perhaps the bottom of a dry lake.

The tents are really just everywhere and it feels like they never runs out. It looks rather sad, but is of course an important production from an economic point of view.
Read moreNow we have come to Roquetas de Mar, located on the Spanish coast just west of Almería. Here we have, thanks to Lena and Jan's blog (rullandeteamet.blogspot.com), found a nice big campsite by the sea.
Read moreNaturist campsite in Corsica, at Aléria on the east coast. The campsite is on a huge area and the motorhomes, caravans and tents are scattered here and there on the beaches and in the forest. It doesn't really feel like being on a campsite, but rather in a huge natural area. We have positioned ourselves so we have the Mediterranean Sea through the window in front of us - not a bad view! Join us at a naturist campsite in Corsica!
