Campgrounds

Visiting as many camping sites as possible and make a short review about family-friendliness, location, and facilities within our journeys. Reviewed the places with short description. Sharing our personal experiences with you to help make traveling easier.

Cities

We are not collecting much information about the cities but this page will give you the selection to search for possible camping sites at the location.

Roadtrips

Our road trips are mainly made to head correct direction and stop when needed. Sometimes boon docking at parking places is a must, and the camping sites vary in quality. The most difficulty is to find the overnight places, as the camping areas are not well-marked, no real common app or web page can be found to check with.

Sightseeing

I don’t know how many stairs climbed in the mountains and how many old houses i have visited, but it is always interesting to see, especially the old villages. Tasting of local homemade delicious dishes and just enjoying the views at the mighty mountains

Law/Information

What is the regulation in China Road Safety Law, what else you need to consider? Questions and answers about the driving license, rental, and tips when you renting an RV / Caravan in China. Must know checklists if renting RV/caravan. Reviews of some of the vehicles used

Rental and APP's

Collection of different RV / Caravan apps and rentals that we have used in our travels. Navigation apps for use in China and apps to finding camping sites or where to get service or rent an RV

Where to find, how to rent, is it a good place and tips and tricks

We are a Finnish-Chinese family living in Shanghai and have always been interested in traveling to different places in vast China and around the world whenever possible. This is where the RV/caravan comes in, feeling the freedom instead of following bus schedules, jumping on trains, and making your own decisions about when and where. This is why we decided to start traveling in China with something else. Our previous traveling experience mainly included flights and hotels, except for two trips to Australia and New Zealand, where we had a motor home for rent and enjoyed the freedom with those. This is how the blog Foreigner Traveling by RV/Caravan in China started. And I want to share all the information with you. For the website name, I had immediately in my mind as were are crossing China to be CrissCrossChina, maybe not the best one but I liked it.

What we do?

Opportunities for challenging trips and pleasant findings are scattered all over this country. You need to know where to find them. We do, one by one, and trip by trip, we explore this vast country.

The emptiness on the roads for travelers by this means made us make the decision to try for ourselves. Many interesting topics have come up: what is needed, where to find it, and the local laws. The highways in China are out there, waiting for you to drive all over them. We’re proud of what we have managed to collect until today. We will try to provide the answers as well as we can.

大P

Hi, my name is Petri and also known as 大P (Da P=Big P). This is my second time in China and we moved from Finland 2014 for work. Been here for some time and wanted to do something new.

Got a brainstorming and thinking why never seen trailer on the road? Most of my previous travels have been connected to my work round the globe and now ready for free-time trips with my family. Never been really active in social media and regardless not Clint Eastwood in front of the camera or Steven Spielberg behind it. Also to be mentioned not even close to any Shakespeare qualified text. I will try my best to make stories and sharing the information with everyone.

Mother Bear (熊妈妈)

Hi, this is Lanny, a middle-aged lady with a young spirit (at least much younger than her actual age)
Coming home from work for more than 10 years has made me a little lazy in various activities, but deep down, I am still the person who has a lot of dreams, step by step to make it come true.
As I wrote in 9th grade:
I want to read a book that lasts four years,
And chat with people from different continents,
I want to fly over the ocean and play with dolphins.
At this moment, life continues, and the exploration of the world is also continuing,
Sharing our experience is continuing, welcome to follow us

CrissCrossChina

This is where our journeys together started

Short description, needed 888 reasons, 99 roses, 20 unfamiliar witnesses, and an exceptional place to catch her. I was able to bargain from 999 reasons to 888 reasons why I wanted to marry her 🙂

 

Memorable moments from the many journeys in China

Many journeys and even more memories. Seeing the pictures reminds you of the fun, joy and the places.

Camping sites what we have experienced

Pictures of camping sites we visited in the past year by RV or caravan. Most of them have been good but there are some places that need some improvement. For example facilities needs upgraded

 

By vehicle and light hearted, I take to the open road, Healthy, free, the world before me, The long black path before me, leading wherever I choose.
