But when finished, both people loved the camping car, found it more suitable for the infrastructure, roads as well as local regulations. “I take the idea from Japanese houses with multi-function design, many utilities are integrated on a small area. Along with that is combining the KISS principle of the West – the design is simpler. the more beautiful, luxurious and durable, “said Mr. Tuong. With the principle of multi-function, he calculates such that an area can be used for many purposes, making the car a simple room.

On the pine board is a stainless steel sheet with a fireproof hiflex surface treatment, which is used as a table top for cooking in the car, “he said of the integration above” mobile home “. “The space in the car is wide and airy, according to the KISS spirit. The MPV model I am using has an air volume of more than 3 m3 (3000 liters), so it is spacious and breathable. When I stop the car, when I sleep, I always pull down the windows of the 4 car doors, leave 3 cm open, there is a convection fan in the car, so the air is always full, ”he added. During the process of using, Mr. Tuong has made many adjustments to make it neat and convenient. Particularly, the water system on the vehicle is currently the 4th version, with a strong pressure shower, operated by a high pressure pump 12V DC. The total investment cost to renovate the car does not exceed 20 million VND, of which the sleeping mattress is the most expensive item, priced at 5.5 million. “Of course carry-on does not have a price, for example a cast iron pot, cooking utensils, gas stoves and other household items.” Both of them love drinking wine and listening to music, so Mr. Tuong also designed his own wine racks to satisfy his hobbies on traveling together.

Both traveled across Vietnam, exploring all the Northeast, Northwest and South West regions. “Trips are a bit risky. But when I go with a loved one, the fear of fear is gone, I trust him very much. I like the feeling of sitting together and watching the night sky the most. moon. Only two people with trees and quiet space, “Nhu said. The two have romantic trips, drinking wine, sightseeing and cooking together. Ms. Nhu said the memories of the trips are not only romantic moments, but also difficult times along the way. She remembered once going to Ba Be Lake (Bac Kan), it was dark, the car sank into the muddy section, the two of them struggled until late at night to get out. Another time, passing a very strong stream, Mr. Tuong had to carry each stone and threw it into the stream for the car to pass. When it was already dark, there were no houses nearby, nor did they know what was ahead, and the two of them just drove around indefinitely. “Thanks to those difficult but happy trips, sometimes we get angry, we sit back and look back on everything we have been through together, so we do a favor”, Ms. Nhu expressed. As for Mr. Tuong, his most impressive memory is that the time he was going to the Central region, there was news that a storm would land. “It was stormy, so it was still bright at night, the wind was screaming, and the rain was drizzling. But in the warm car, the two of us listened to music together, and at dawn we drank red wine and watched the ocean.” Tuong said that he and his girlfriend were both people who had lost a lot, so both of them always cherished reality. To him, having a companion in life is the most valuable thing. Anh Tuong – Nhu is happy to have a good companion.
