Before parking (with my motorhome, equipped camper van or van), I will make sure the place and its access are authorized by local regulation or the owner of the place
- properly, on one parking spot only
- without gathering several vehicles and without staying several nights at the same place, especially if the place is free, very busy or limited in capacity (=itinerancy)
- and respect a distance of courtesy and greet other travellers
I will avoid “camping behaviour” on public roads because unpacking accessories (wheel shocks, awning, table, tents…) can be forbidden or can harm the nomad travellers’ image
- I leave nothing but footprints. If I can’t throw/sort my waste, I will take it with me
- nature is everyone’s responsibility, I won’t hesitate to pick up waste found on the spot
- I won’t light campfires or barbecues in nature, unless explicitly authorized
- I will be discreet and respect the quietness of the place (no loud music, TV, pets…), both during day and night
- I will choose another spot if it’s already “full”
I will drain my black and grey waters only in areas designated for this purpose, never in nature. Thousands of designated areas exist on the app! And I accept to contribute to the costs of services that may have a fee
- I will introduce myself when I arrive
- I will respect animals and the life rhythm of the place
- I will ask permission before getting out my outside belongings (including barbecue) and my pets
And I will support local business at most (markets, local producers, restaurants…)
