Trips that maintain social distance : The new, uncharted trend

1

Following the outbreak of COVID-19, a new way of relaxing and recharging emerged: camping and sleeping in a car on a road trip. Making reservations at camp sites has become so competitive, with people starting to head to camp sites for a prolonged stay in nature instead of going home after work. Car camping, parking a car in a scenic spot to spend the night in the car, also creates time for healing and refreshment. Camping in itself and car camping are expected to continue to be one of the most popular forms of recreation as a non-face-to-face travel option in line with the trend of R&R.
