There are not many things that can put a damper on your carefully planned camping or adventure trip faster than not sleeping well. And with so many sleeping solutions available on the market today, there is no excuse not to have a good night’s rest even when roughing it. Last month we looked at trailer tents, hitting that sweet spot between space, comfort and value.

Loadshedding was the last thing I thought I would ever mention in an article on any of our platforms, but it has become a reality for us in South Africa. From an overlanding perspective, though, the many products developed as a countermeasure to loadshedding have brought ample new options to ensure power while out in the bundu.
