Rooftop tent voyage of discovery: Under the stars of Holland
It was a spontaneous decision to leave the comfort zone and go on a rooftop tent trip.

The challenges of the journey
The adventure began with a late departure and led through Belgian roads and, of course, the all-too-familiar traffic jam.
By nightfall, Daniel had finally reached his destination, but the search for a suitable pitch proved more difficult than expected.
It’s not easy to find the ideal place to spend the night in the dark, which showed him how important good planning is.
Unprepared and away from his usual surroundings, the challenge of finding a suitable place to sleep became apparent.
- Finding a suitable parking space can be difficult
- It is not an advantage to arrive at the campsite in the dark
The first night in the roof tent
The night was cold and he had difficulty moving under the covers.
This meant that next time he would have to prepare better for such trips.
Despite the initial difficulties, the roof tent was a surprise.
It was spacious, big enough for two adults and two children, or even three adults.
The windows offered a breathtaking view, and the well thought-out interior design left little to be desired.
Thanks to the coziness, he was able to get a good night’s sleep.
