trying car camping with my jimny and making a bowl

i wanted to try my jimny for camping and also make a bowl for this month’s video.

i’ve always been interested in camping food, especially cooking over fire, and i ended up using this bowl for many different meals.

in the past, i used to do bikepacking, so i was used to traveling light and carrying only lightweight items. because of that, the idea of making a ceramic piece for camping never felt right. but after switching to car camping, i realized this could actually work.

for this bowl, i tried an epsom salt technique and made some simple, soft lines inside. i usually add epsom salt by eye, and so far it has worked well for me. i haven’t had issues like cracking or problems during the process.

i shared the whole process on youtube. if it sounds interesting to you, you can watch it through the link. the video includes not only the pottery process, but also some simple camping meals.
