Boondocking.......its great !. You can still find the odd camp site where there are no rules and regulations, pay a few quid and please yourself how you camp, in the van or under a tarp, cook on a wood fire.
MB is very lucky, boondocking seems to be the norm in the States.
When you look at caravans remember what looks great when the weather is good, when you spend your time outside, sitting, eating and cooking on a barbecue etc, and using the van just for sleeping is a lot different in bad weather when you have to do everything inside.
You need space, space for storage (bedding, clothing, food, cooking utensils etc), you want decent size beds. You even need somewhere to hang wet clothing.
If like me you think your caravan may be your BOV and a specific camping site/place your BOL you’ll need plenty of storage for much more stuff, and more living space.
