Camping Flash (inbunden, eng)

Camping Flash o?ers a direct and uncompromising portrait of the world of camping inFrance. A true champion in this field, the country alone accounts for nearlya third of all camping spots in Europe — a record that reflects how deeplythis mode of vacation is rooted in the national culture.

Behind the half-open doors ofcaravans and motorhomes unfolds a way of life that is at once ordinary and fascinating,marked by joyful proximity, shared rituals, and a celebrated simplicity. Here, people livein T-shirts or swimsuits, sleep just a few meters from their neighbors, cook lunch facingthem, and meet again in the evening at the washrooms — toothbrush in hand, flip-flopson their feet.

Long regarded as a modest pastime, camping remains today one of the lastspaces where a form of sociability is experienced in both its simplest and most intenseform: closeness, life outdoors, daily rituals. And despite the evolution of facilities, in-creasing comfort, and the rise of permanent structures, the spirit of camping in Francehas ultimately changed very little.

What endures is an atmosphere of humor, lightness,and small details that reveal a distinctly French summer culture. Since 2022, I havebeen traveling across France to photograph campers framed in the doorway of theircaravans or motorhomes, while also capturing the ambiences and details that embo-dy this unique culture — one that takes me back to my own childhood holidays.
