In order to live a comfortable camp life enjoying the summer, Charlermann's camping technique

Speaking of summer is the outdoor season. It will be crowded with Japanese campgrounds to the sea in the mountains. I am surrounded by great nature, a moment of bliss. In the night that sleeps in the tent, you can feel the earth full of bodies.

Hello,Takuya Sudo @ circle around the world bicycle @ Charridermanis. In Australia and Patagonia, I can not forget the night when I put a tent in the wilderness without anyone. I spent a lot of nights in my tent. I would like to summarize my own camping life that I learned like this one this time.

◆ Bedding
After I finished driving a day, I arrived at the campground.


Luggage down ......


Switching from shoes to sandals, I realize that the running of the day is over. Since wearing off the shoes at camping is troublesome, sandals are essential items


Blue sheet in place to put the tent. There is no problem if the ground is beautiful as much, but in the uneven places the bottom of the tent can be broken, so we use the ground seat.


If you cross the assembled pole through the tent body, the tent will stand up quickly.


I am using allente's "Trek Rise IThe model called.


Carry the baggage. One row on the long side is luggage, and I sleep with laying mats in one row.


Completed by covering the fly sheet. Let's keep the fly seat and the tent body apart by a peg so that it will not stick together. If you do not do it, the tent and body will be moist by rain or morning dew.


It is easy to use clothespins to keep the fly seat at the entrance of the tent open.


If you put rain wear that you do not use into the cushion cover ......


Completion of a simple pillow. In the past I did not mind, but now I can not sleep like my favorite item.


Take out the Thermaist air mattress ......


When inflating the air, it bulges to a shape with elasticity and elasticity. I can relax and feel tired compared to silver mat, so I like it and I use it.


Sleeping bags and pillows and mats ensure a comfortable sleeping environment at camping.


Let's make garbage bags as well.


◆ Cooking
I made something with macaroni on hand, canned mackerel, cheese, onions as I failed to buy dinner.


Prepare water and fuel.


My favorite cooking stoves are "MSR Whisper Light International"A long-selling item called. Gasoline for automobiles is fueled, so excellent cost performance. And even in the wilderness of Australia and in the outback of Africa, gasoline is easy to supply if the place where people are living. It will be different if traveling with "only Europe where gas cartridges are available" "only Southeast Asia where eating out is the only one", but I think that gasoline stove is a safe option around a long cycle bike world.

This stove requires work to vaporize gasoline called preheat. Pour a small amount into the saucer like this ...


Heat the spout of gasoline with a fire.


After a while the fire disappears, so once you open the valve again gasoline becomes vaporized gas, if you turn on a light with a lighter and succeed it is a blue flame. If play heat is incomplete or nozzles are clogged, maintenance will be necessary as red flames mix.


First of all, boil water.


Boiled hot water in a 1 liter thermos bottle. With this, I can cover coffee and tea after meal and next morning.


And, poured water again and started cooking.


When boiled, throw onion and macaroni, boil for a while ... ...


The finish is left over with residual heat.


Cut the hot water and put canned mackerel and 8p cheese and seasoned with salt and tomato paste. After I ran around a day I am hungry, so I can have anything delicious.


Clean up when you finish eating, if you have bread, wipe the rest of Kochel and eat it and you will be beautiful. Pour hot water from the thermos bottle, wipe it with a paper towel and store it. There is a frying pan for a long journey, and the range of cooking also increases, but Europe is traveling with only Kochel for emphasis on light weight.

Cooled after hot water with hot water of the thermos.


I start up my computer in the middle of the night and keep a record.


The next morning
The night is getting cold, the tent is drenched with morning dew.


The tent that puts out the luggage to the sky is stored upside down and put out the garbage.


And I will run again today.


When I put up my tent, it makes me feel like this. It is fun to stretch and cook a tent while being blown by the nature's wind. Even though I finish my bike trip, I think that I can not stop this much.
