It's not difficult for us to understand how much we love camping, however it's not easy to explain... but I'll try my best to enlighten you and maybe even convince you to try it!
First of all... we always check the weather before leaving... camping in the rain is no fun for anyone... let alone the kids!
Not all of these happen at the same time (obviously...), or even always, but they tend to happen quite often:
While we are camping (tent or camper van) we go to bed at 8pm, and wake up at 7am.
While we are camping we spend more time together.
While we are camping we expect adventures.
While we are camping we try new hobbies.
While we are camping we surf and swim if near the sea, hike if in the mountain and try to fish when theres water around (never succeeded though!).
While we are camping we eat many times a day, sitting on the ground, surrounded by nature and friends.
While we are camping on winter we get our warm hoodies and love to drink coffee in the early morning outside. Fresh air in the face, warm inside.
While we are camping on summer we sleep uncovered and wake up with the most amazing sunrises (plus some mosquito bites... an extra that we cherish... not)
While we are camping we eat peanut butter, gotta keep the energy level up!
While we are camping we do open fires.
While we meet lots of new species, hang around with Kangaroos, Guanas and Kookaburras.
While we are camping we meditate... and read.
Camping fills my chest with happiness and that's the main reason for me to do it. It makes me as happy as a good surfing session, or a well deserved hug. it is one of the best feelings in the world... for me :)
Here are some photos of last weekend camping down south!
Have great week Xoxo
