i don’t mind sleeping in a tent, and love a campfire, and breakfast in the morning and going hiking. but the bathroom situation and packing up all the stuff when you’re done prevents me from going camping much.
when i was in the teton mountains, years ago, i befriended the camp hosts and they recommended i consider being a camp host. they said all i would need is a truck and a camper. they collect money, and sell firewood, and clean the bathrooms as job responsibilities. you can travel all around to different national parks or whatever seasonally getting different jobs. i thought i might like it, being in nature all the time.
I love camping! But I only do it a couple of times per summer because it’s so much work and takes so much planning and energy. I haven’t gone camping with my new dog yet. I wonder if he’d like it or if he’d bark all night in the tent with us (he doesn’t usually bark at night unless we have the house windows open, I think because he hears people or cars outside and it worries him). If the dog could hear all of the other people moving around and talking all night, I wonder if he’d bark, being an alert / guard dog breed.
My husband and I might go camping for our 6 year anniversary, at the end of July.
Camping is great, but unfortunately in the uk wild camping is illegal. The only place that let’s you do it is Dartmoor. I went there a couple of years ago and had a pretty good time. It is a shame we can’t enjoy open spaces like the peak district and places like the new forest though.
I get paid $12 a day. I am free to choose what to do. I am making contributions like this one on the internet. When i won’t treat my live as a day to day job, I think i would quit living. I love camping and my back is buggered to do the campsitework. Maybe someone someday somehow love me that much taking me camping.
I used to go camping a lot back home, lots of nice spots to camp there. Here not so much, the mountains get pretty cold at night and lots of bears, don’t like cold or being lunch for a bear
