SBN (below: S)☆ Tell me why you are addicted to camping?
Mr. Neil (below: N)Since I was little, my parents loved camping and I often went camping with my family.If you think about it, you might have been living like a car complex since you were a kid.
Rather than being addicted to it, I feel like camping in the flow because I want to be in nature as much as possible, and the idea is that camping is a part of my life.
Last year, I put up a tent in front of my house and slept alone when the weather was nice (laughs) It's nice to go camping far away, but I didn't throw away the front of my house either.The air is fresh, and when I wake up in the morning, I can hear the birds' voices, and the awakening is completely different.
S: ☆ What are you doing at the campsite?
N: The sea and rivers here are actually quite cold, and I can swim solidly in the river for about a month in August, so I wonder if I often enjoy hiking.Hiking equipment, always in the car, and again
There is a way to hike from the campsite.The rest is a hot spring! (Laughs) Hokkaido has hot springs near the campsite.
S: ☆ Where are the most impressive campsites and places you've been to?
N: In Hokkaido, there is a very beautiful campsite in the mountains of Shakotan, and there is a very beautiful waterfall beyond that.
There are many places where there are no people like that, and the population is 500 million, but the land is vast and it looks like New Zealand, it is quite deep in the mountains without anyone, and the stars are very beautiful.
Another good thing is that I forgot all the names of the campsites (laughs). The small campsites near Lake Mashu and Ainu, a small lake on Lake Kussharo, were also impressive.
S: ☆ How many people usually go camping?
N: Nowadays, I often go with three family members.
S: ☆ What are you enjoying at the campsite?
N: That's right, playing the guitar super fake (laughs), enjoying BBQ and cooking.
S: ☆ Where are you procuring food?
N: Local procurement group!If possible, I want to eat local food.Like ...
Before arriving at the campsite, I buy vegetables that are sold on the roadside, and buy them at a rural shop.I don't prepare much.It's a hassle (laughs)
S: ☆ What are your favorite dishes?
N: I'm addicted to the Dutch oven I bought last year, and basically I love steaming vegetables and meat as they are.
Put potatoes, onions, bacon, etc. in half of the cabbage and steam it, or make whole chicken!Hokkaido is usually sweet and super delicious, so I wonder if I can just bake it and eat it.The best!
S: ☆ Tell us about your car?
N: I like to drive in at an auto campsite and camp next to it, rather than a campsite where cars can't enter.
S: ☆ What are the measures against heat and cold?
N: Hokkaido has a huge temperature difference, so even if it's hot in the daytime, it's cold at night, so it feels like I always have down jackets, windbreakers, and rainwear all year round.Sleeping bags are always OK up to -1 degree down, and I haven't been concerned about measures against heat in Hokkaido, but measures against cold are more important, so if you think "that? It's cold!", You can use it immediately. I wonder if only the preparations are solid.
S: ☆ What is your sleep fashion?
N: Basically, all season first layer!I don't want to expose my skin even in a sleeping bag, so I wear a long one, and it is a thick first layer in winter and a thin first layer in summer.
S: ☆ What are you doing to prevent insects in the camp?
N: I wonder if I just apply insect repellent.
After that, don't wear black things!In Hokkaido, if you wear something black, it will come to you anyway.Wasps, aedes, and gnats all come from black.
I went camping with my friends before, arrived at the campsite with a black one-box car, and got off saying "This is good", and the wasp was banging!Bachin!I ran into his car and hurriedly ran away and evacuated about 100 kilometers away.Oh, I was really impressed that he was coming.
S: ☆ Where do you usually get camp information?
N: For the time being, I have a Hokkaido hot spring guidebook and a campsite information book.
The guidebook is quite old because the information does not change so much, but after all word-of-mouth is more important!There are many people around me who like camping, so I get more and more information, and what is written in the book is not very reliable.
Hokkaido has a good network, so more real information comes in, and I wonder if it has changed a little since I became a family.
Get good campsite information for your family from other families.I used to like the fact that there weren't many people even though it was dirty, but now it's changed a little.

SBN (below: S)☆ I heard you're addicted to camping.
Mr. Shinya Nakagawa (hereinafter: N)Isn't it huge that you can get a lot of things from nature when you are in nature?
S: ☆ Why is it addicted to camping?
N: Well, the main reason is that you can slowly enter nature, rather than what time you wake up after camping, it's time to wake up when the birds sing, or when it gets brighter. I wonder what that natural cycle is!
S: ☆ What do you usually do at the campsite?
N: Well, fishing and edible wild plants, I sometimes go there if there is a good point. Recently, I like walking in the woods and I like mountain climbing, but I don't want to go mountain climbing. I think it's really fun to do a small trek and walk slowly to see the natural flowers.
S: ☆ What was the most memorable place in the campsite or place you went to?
N: Where I've been so far ... When I went to the Makkari campsite near Niseko in May, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, there were no customers, and morning and evening under the chartered cherry blossoms. The camping life with a view of Mt. Yotei while watching the cherry blossoms was a wonderful word.
S: ☆ Is it an ordinary campsite?
N: Ordinary Makkari youth camp.
S: Hmm.The campground is cheap, isn't it?
N: The campground is a town-run, so it's very cheap.
S: Is there a lot of such styles in Hokkaido?
N:is that so.There are many such styles in Hokkaido.
S: ☆ How many people usually go to such places?
N: I wonder if I usually go with her together (embarrassed).
S: ☆ What are you doing at the campsite?
N: What are you doing at the campsite?I do yoga and throw frisbees.
S: A must-have!
N:is not it.It is a must-have item.
S: ☆ Where do you procure ingredients?
N: If the time and timing are right, I bought the ingredients at the roadside station or the vegetable shop and baked them, and recently I got a Dutch oven, so I wonder if I'm addicted to it?
S: ☆ Are you using a Dutch oven?It doesn't have to be a Dutch oven, but what is your specialty?
N: What is your specialty?What did you make recently?What are you going to make?Rather than saying that I'm good at cooking, I usually bake fish (laughs).
S: ☆ I think you own a car, can you tell me what made you decide to buy it?
N: I'm riding a 3 camper called ISUZU's Rodeo, and I bought it for about 150 million yen just three years ago, and after shooting Car Complex 1, I found a slightly larger car. I thought about it and looked it up, but I couldn't find it even though it was good, and then there was a guy at a camper shop that I stopped by, so I signed up the next day I saw it.
S: Ride on!
N: Yes, this is it!Something like that.

SBN (hereinafter S):What is the purpose of going camping?
Kei Sato (K):After all, I want to take good pictures, so the purpose is what I want to take, and that's what I feel like camping or living.
Well, the purpose is to shoot.
S:Rather than being addicted to camping, do you inevitably do it for shooting?Is it like that?
K:I agree.
S : So what do you do at those campsites?Fishing or picking edible wild plants?
K:Depending on the time of year, I wonder if it's time to climb mountains or pick edible wild plants.
I don't fish.
S:I've been to campsites and other places so far, so I think there are many memorable places, but which one is the most impressive?
K:I wonder if I really like Rishiri.
In the winter, I hang out in the car and do BBQ.
S : How many people do you usually act on?
K:I wonder if it's almost alone.I went to shoot and met up with my friends on the way.
S:Then, I don't think it's easy to go to a campsite and play, but what do you do to play?
K:Recently, I got a fixie, so I can go all over the island if I have time, and it's a good exercise to go around by bicycle while watching the scenery.
S:If you are hungry, where do you get the ingredients?
K:Rishiri is very expensive for vegetables, so I wonder if people who send me from Sapporo or get along with marine products will share the hem.It's not self-sufficient, but it's like that.
S:Do you have a specialty?
K:Sea urchin bowl!Hahahaha.
Even before this, I had a sea urchin bowl because I had Sato rice, but I didn't have anything, and I ate salt ramen together, but it didn't match my expectations ... After all, the sea urchin bowl is the best!
S:Please tell me how much you owned the car to accompany your trip and the purchase price!
K:I got a Tomboy camper from an acquaintance three years ago, and I can't say the purchase price, but ... I got it at a fairly low price.It's not like a camper because there are some parts that can't be used without a lot of repairs (laughs).
S:It may not matter much because it is a car, but are there any measures against heat and cold?
K:Since it's Hokkaido, there is no measure against the heat, but I like silk sheets and wrap them up to sleep.When it's cold, I use a sleeping bag that can handle -XNUMX degrees Celsius.
S:Is there fashion for sleeping?
K:It's basically hot, so I often sleep naked, but when it's really cold, I feel like I'm wearing a first layer or something.
S:What is the insect countermeasure?
K:As a measure against insects, first of all, do not leave the door open!
Well, after that, there are almost screen doors, so I don't take much measures against insects.
S:How do you get information about camping?
K:A friend of mine works at Shugakuso in Sapporo, where you can see the information and actually get it.After that, I sometimes search on the net to find it.
S:Kei has a car, so it feels like camping is a lot of camper life?
K:I agree.In fact, unlike a normal person, I'll go with this guy in the second car or anywhere!The reason I chose this guy in my camping life is to shoot skis and snowboards in the winter, so I don't run in the morning and go there to shoot.I went to the mountains the night before, and if the weather was bad there, I would wait for recovery and shoot from the beginning of the morning, so it would be nice to have a one-box for that.After all, I thought that the camper was the best, so I chose it.

SBN (below: S)☆ Tell me why you are addicted to camping?
Mr. Tamaki (hereinafter: T)I agree.
It's also attractive to be able to be one with nature, but since I was surfing originally, it's about time to see the waves in front of me!It would be great if it could be done in front of the place.I was addicted to it.
S: ☆ What do you do at the campsite?
T: I play a lot, but I always bring a fishing rod with me.Eat the fish you caught that day!It's ideal ~ ♪
S: ☆ Then, do you mean that the prey is locally procured?
T:indeed.Once upon a time, when I forgot to bring a fishing rod, I made a bamboo rod. (Laughs) But I also cooked and ate with the locals in a big catch.Well, if it's not the worst, I'll check supermarkets and so on, so I buy them at such places.
S: ☆ How many people usually go (camping)?
T: I think I usually go alone.
Most of the time I go with one or two people, so I wonder if there are so many!
S: ☆ What are you doing at the campsite?
After all fishing?
T: I also fish, but in the end I don't bring any ingredients, and even if I do, I sometimes only prepare light meals, so I have to think about getting my prey somehow! (Lol)
S: ☆ Are there any impressive campsites you've been to?
T: That's right.There are many, but if you dare to say ...It's interesting to hear various stories, such as Oki beach in Kochi prefecture, where I was addicted to surfing, and when I set up a tent, I was next to Pilgrimage.Also, the side of the river is very ideal.It's convenient because there is water!In Hokkaido, I love Erimo.
S: ☆ Zubari!What is your specialty?
T: After all, I always bring dashi because it's a dashi shop. (Lol)
I wonder if there are many simple dishes that make use of soup stock.Just add a little salt to the soup stock and it will serve as a soup, and Risen "san no Odashi" is very convenient and is recommended because it can be used not only for soup stock but also for pasta by breaking the bag!From Japanese-style pasta to tomato-based kelp from Rishiri Island with shiitake mushrooms and etrumeus sadina.Anything is OK, so I often use it.
S: ☆ Why do you own a car?Please let us know if you have any purchase price or reason!
T: I used to ride a big car, but the car doesn't have to be that big!I'm riding a mini car now because it's becoming quite compact nowadays.The fuel economy is quite good, and the purchase price is 95000 yen, which is a friend's price.
S: ☆ Do you take measures against heat and cold?
T: I wonder if the cold is adjusted with layers.
Also, a sleeping bag!But sometimes I make a mistake and wear down and shells and get into my sleeping bag.When it's hot, even when it's close to the map!
S: ☆ What is your sleep fashion?
T: The first layer is black top and bottom, isn't it?
Haha.
S: ☆ What about insect repellent and insect countermeasures?
T: I think Japanese Kincho mosquito coils are famous overseas, but I wonder if they often burn mosquito coils.I also have an Insect Poison Remover, so I was killed!If you think about it, you'll smoke it right away.But is it effective? (Lol)
S: ☆ Where do you usually get camp information?
T: There are a lot of troubles, and I often go on a random basis without deciding where to go.At that time, I think there were a lot of things that happened, such as collecting information at a local convenience store.But recently, it has become convenient because you can get information on your mobile phone. GO-GO- CAMP !!
