Lots of people say that they don’t see the point in camping. Staying in what really is poor conditions whilst only just covered from the extremeties by a canvas sheet. However, having just returned from 3 days of camping I ca definitley see why some people love it.
It is not wise to go camping and think your going to get 5 star luxury. It’s basic, it’s “of the earth”, it’s getting lost in the wilderness! We had torrential downpour right through the stay but I loved it. Not one item of clothing came back without mud on it! Thank g-d for washing machines.
The camp site I was at had no phone signal, and you know what? It was utterly refreshing to be able to get away and not be bombarded with calls, emails and texts. Technology hey, ironic but it does get old!
ThIs weekend i’ve spent a pound on showers, got attacked by Mosquitos, been freezing cold at night, ate package food, been afraid to use the toilets and you know, I’d do it all again!
