Why bring a trailer????????
Have you ever tried to tow a trailer off road? Probably not. Wait til you try it and observe how it slides sideways (sometimes) with gravity and makes going through even quite wide gaps/corners a nightmare.
What do you propose putting in it? There are shops the world over to buy food and all important stuff (a very relative term), I'm sure you could live without HP sauce and 6 ipads quite easily and probably be the better for it.
Many moons ago I managed to travel round the whole of the former Warsaw pact countries with a small gym bag. Even then, I managed to find a shop when I needed to buy something (particularly socks because I only brought one pair) and places also exist to buy food....
Couple that with needing an extra spare or two for the trailer, waiting for the trailer chassis to crack somewhere, trying not to get the trailer stolen and just trying to do a U-turn anywhere.......
Did you ever get stuck trying to U-turn a trailer, or even with a trailer attached? Well its just triple fun compared to just getting stuck.
1. Trailer off
2. Recover vehicle
3. Recover trailer (and its unlikely it will pull out forwards IF its loaded properly
4. Try to find a firm enough spot to align trailer to rehitch and not ...................................get stuck again.
Rethink your vehicle choice and get something with a bit of boot space. Although my Aunt, Uncle and 2 cousins managed 6 weeks touring Europe every year in the 70/80s in a VW beetle with a roofrack.
