Alle reden oder schwärmen vom Campen, welcher Camping Typ bist Du eigentlich? Oder überhaupt. Es werden unterschiedliche Camper-Porträts vorgestellt: Alleinreisende, ein Paar, eine Familie oder eine Clique von Freunden. Dadurch fällt die Identifizierung und die Einschätzung was man selber mal ausprobieren möchte gleich viel leichter. Könnte aber auch sein, Du stellst fest, Camping ist nichts für mich. Dann kannst Du wenigstens mitreden und Dein neuerworbenes Wissen, bei jeder Diskussion zum Besten geben.
