He's simply part of the scene, at
best to be as conscious as possible:

The trash can in the camper van

It's astonishing how much waste we produce, even though we take great care to buy as little packaging as possible.

How do you separate waste on a camping holiday?

The desire to separate waste as rigorously as at home is somewhat difficult due to the limited space in the camper and the irregular recycling options available on the road, but it's doable. We try our best to avoid packaging waste from the start; completely eliminating it is honestly unrealistic for us, because at home we know our shops, our personal selection, and our favorite products, but when you're in a new place every day, it's not so easy, and often not even possible abroad. Some supermarkets offer the option to recycle paper and plastic directly at the checkout after paying.

Trash can for the camper

We've created a designated spot in the cupboard for general waste because we don't like the look of a garbage bag hanging around. For plastic and paper waste, we either carry two pretty reusable bags/cloth bags, or on short trips we use the back of our spacious garbage bin in the camper van, separating the waste later at home.

Shopping without packaging in your camper

Shopping without packaging works really well in southern European markets, and we avoid products where the ratio of contents to packaging is disproportionate. Glass and cans are the only items for which you'll often find recycling bins, but yellow bags are often nonexistent in southern countries. We've created a designated spot for general waste because we don't like the look of a garbage bag hanging around, but we have two nice reusable bags for plastic and paper recycling.
