What is the opposite to GLAMping?

Im sure you’ve heard the term before. It is up-market camping where you the camper does little or nothing.  Some people I know say that staying in a 5⭐️ hotel is glamping. 

Since we’ve been staying here, I think I’ve noticed the opposite to this holiday style. 


Here’s a quiz?

How many people stayed in the smaller tent in the middle photo?

Here’s a hint. 


The answer was three. And everything they had (and them) fitted on to the two bikes bikes. 

The next photo shows them  heading to their next destination. 


It got me thinking about that style of camping. 

Then I spotted this group setting up. 


On the move – easily transportable, even the mattress. This time there were five of them. 

My term for this style of camping is ……

…CRAMping. 

Feel free to use it if you like. 😁
