I'm not sure where Campervans ends and Motorhomes begin but, very loosely, a Campervan is like a Transit van with windows cut out and a bed and kitchen fitted. A Motorhome looks like a Caravan with an engine and steering wheel.
It's a huge area of growth currently so I think it warrants a thread.
I've camped in tiny tents, medium sized tents and huge tents. Camping with a Motorhome is in exactly the same spirit as any of the other camping I've done and I do it for the same reasons, to get out of the house, sit in a field, and/or explore.
It could be a hints and tips thread but I'd like to see some inspirational images, showing where your beloved van has taken you.
My own MH is a base for my landscape photography. It gets me into new landscapes and allows me the quiet time later to process the images.
To get the ball rolling... Here's Humberto The Hymer. My Motorhome. We've owned it 2 years exactly and used it about 150 nights during that time. It's 10 years old now.
The beauty for me is how easy it is to "change the view".
We can carry enough water for about 4 days if careful. We have several weeks of gas on board for cooking/fridge/heating. Solar panels and 2 big batteries mean we can go off-grid (without 240V) full time most of the year (Short winter days can be challenging for the Solar panels to keep up).
Many pubs in the UK are fine about staying in their car park overnight (something we do a lot) as long as you spend a bit of money at the bar (something we do a lot).
Europe is totally geared-up for Motorhomes. Almost every sizeable town has an "Aire de Camping Car", somewhere to stay for free (or cheap) and service your van (empty waste & take on fresh water). It's basically very easy to find an overnight stop in Europe.
The downside is that medieval European towns and Motorhomes don't mix very well, so we have become very familiar with local bus timetables, cycling and walking. A typical Campervan is much more suited to driving around these places.
