    First overnight overland trip

    Great. Enjoy. I have been camping with my kids before they even turned 1. Below some personal tips: - Do not drive more than 4h, do regular stops. - iPads aloud during boarding trips but not at the campsites (not they they ask for them) - Arrive early before sunset. Expect more time to set up...

    Diesel Heater rain cover for all-in-one unit?

    Yes. It does in the beginning. After it worms up properly it improved. I have been thinking for many different solutions to this problem

    S/how do you carry paper maps and books?

    With me it’s quite simple. I don’t. Everything is digital and backed up in at least two devices. Maps are good to plan in advance but I do not take them with me. Offline GPS maps are in my opinion the best.

    Storing Portable Power Station

    Please keep them fully charged. You may connect them to a charger like CTEK that trickle charges them continuously or intermittently

    Recommendation on ground camping mattress or air mattress

    Please avoid air mattress. In the winter, air remains very cold.

    I use a Coleman petrol stove and a wood burning stove in the winter. Both work very well for me.

    Pita breads do not need refrigeration. You may use them to wrap canned food and vegetables.

    Solar Panel recommendations

    I fully agree. Very well trusted company the Renogy. I used the Honk Kong based custom made solar panels called Lensun Solar. Sent them my drawings and created custom made ones for 500 USD.
