A minimalist approach to being one with nature, yet retain your own home comfort amenities

Over the years, I’ve been able to experience camping over a broad spectrum – ranging from just the basic essentials on my back, to camping in a lavish RV. It seems a popup tent trailer is an ideal setup for a family or whomever else might be looking to be one with nature, but also have many of the amenities an RV or full-size trailer have to offer, with somewhat a minimalist flare to it.

After some research online, popup campers have clearly come a long way – with many choices and setups to choose from. Here’s information about some of the popup manufacturers and their camper brands/models for 2012:

Forest River

2012 Aliner

I really like this style – feels a little safer/cozier inside with hard walls, and spacious with a vaulted ceiling inside. With six different models to choose from, Aliner clearly offers a quality product that has taken popup camper trailers to a whole new level. Check out Aliner’s camper models where they have a cool interactive that points out key features of their trailers. www.aliner.com


Starcraft
