As we go down that uncertain and exciting path that is life, we look back to remember the moments that mark us. In them usually appears the memory of the holidays of our childhood and adolescence , in which there was nothing more than the here and now, trying to squeeze every hour of that freedom without study, without teachers and with the friends and the family as great companions on our adventures in nature.
Memories of swimming pools, of sunsets among the trees or on the beach sand, of bicycles, of first kisses, races and laughter. Many laughs. Memories that in many cases are located in those campsites that, for a few weeks, ceased to be a simple ground on which the tents, motorhomes or bungalows , to become the gateway to a magical world where everything was possible.
