What not to Forget before Camping.
Hi People!
I would like to share with you in this post some basic and important tips that can help a lot before going camping. Most of the tips below I draw from my experience of over 15 years as a volunteer adult Scout movement . Camping is great, it makes us more calm, serene , able to connect with a reality just lived from day to day and certainly came back to better home than we arrived. We connect us with what is most beautiful and simple in life.
I hope I can help you that you want to camp , spend a few days in contact with nature , forgetting a little stressful routine in large cities, with their problems and challenges that are sure to be several.
