I love to be outdoors and enjoy, surrounded by nature. When I lay my head on the floor of my tent, I feel safe and peaceful. When I see a deer, a snake or a bear, I feel joy and connection. Not everyone shares my level of comfort. Last summer I took a good friend on a camping trip. She had never rested before. While I am a type of gal who digs his own backyard, regularly uses power tools and maybe can pick up my car in an emergency, my friend Carol lives in a condominium, has her nails and hair twice a month and, as a rule, There is a macho guy in his life. I was shocked when Carol asked to go hiking with me, but welcomed her company. Our trip went surprisingly well, and here are some tips that can help.
1. Prepare by doing some research online. See what camping is. Choose a pretty campsite, which is located next to the house and not too isolated. Check temperature, wildlife, recreational opportunities and any known hazards. If there is any wildlife in the area that could pose a threat, such as a venomous snake or bear, learn how to identify an animal and what to do if you see it. Most likely, if you camp in the village, you will not see any wildlife except the closest guys.
2. It makes it easy. If you are traveling with seasoned vacationers, insist that your first trip is very short. I recommend a night trip for your first experience. If possible, choose a camp two hours away from home. Also, insist that you are not included in any athletic marathon assets. Take a hike, but keep it less than 2 miles away. If you want to take another hike later, choose another hike less than 2 miles away. 2 miles in the forest is much more vinous than 2 miles in the gym.
3. Keep an open mind. You never know how you will feel surrounded by nature. Some people feel that they are being born for the first time. Other people struggle with panic attacks and shorten their trip. If you feel uncomfortable, remind yourself that this trip will end soon, take a deep breath and see what you can find for the rest of your trip. It is very common with new vacationers to experience joy, boredom, fear and excitement.
4. Light the light, but bring a variety of clothes to cope with the heat and cold. Get ready to let go of vanity. Pack a swimsuit (even if you hate how you look at it), a warm outfit (such as a sweat suit or a fleece suit), a cool outfit (and shorts and a tank top), and comfortable walking shoes.
5. Select and pack other items for convenience and safety. You will need a warm sleeping bag and pillow, a portable bag to place under your sleeping bag, drinking water (checked with campsites), a working flashlight, a toothbrush, personal care products, an error spray or wipes with DEET and food. Many campgrounds have lists of recommended items for packaging. I like to wear a small pocket knife, a first-aid kit, dental floss or a small rope, as well as a small pocket product called a screacher (it's great to use if you get lost in the forest).
6. Pack a few items to fill your mind. Bring a comfortable chair and something non-electric so that you can focus your mind. Books, magazines or crosswords are good. It is also fun to bring an open game, such as darts or croquet. Many first-class tourists are not accustomed to so much free time and often struggle with boredom, except for their trained ones.
7. Do not make an independent trip. If you are single and want to try camping for the first time, try connecting to a group in your area. Many sports shops are aware of well-respected camping groups. If possible, always go with an experienced camper.
8. Take care of yourself. If you and your camping site got scars during the night, sleep in the car, the windows are slightly cracked, the doors are locked and your keys are in the ignition lock. Thus, everyone can sleep, but you do not need to reduce the time of the trip. If you are afraid and your friends are not, tell someone that you are sleeping in the car, lock the car doors and break the windows, but make sure that your friends have car keys so they can come to the car if necessary. Most people learn to love sleeping in a tent, but others feel very vulnerable. Sometimes it's nice to sleep in the car if you don't feel safe in a tent.
Nothing looks like the world in a tent and listens to crickets and other wildlife when I sail to sleep. Tent camping is a great, inexpensive hobby. But, it is not for everyone. If you like camping, but you need a comfortable bed at the end of the day, book your reservation in a state or national park. Many of them have affordable rustic cabins or hotel rooms that have excellent access to nature.
