The Experience

Off-Grid Living, Redefined

The Gaz66 — nicknamed Shishiga — is a historic 1980 Soviet military vehicle, transformed into a fully equipped off-grid campervan on a hilltop overlooking Lake Moacșa-Pădureni, the largest reservoir in Covasna County.

Conceived by Larisa Vlad after returning from the Emirates — a unique accommodation capturing the spirit of van life without driving. Inside: full kitchen, hot shower, king-size bed, two bunks, and all-season heating.

The vehicle cannot be driven — it's a historic piece. All the adventure, none of the road stress.
