Many people prefer to the places which are some quiet, remote with few people and complete facilities at their first camping trip.
These places are good. They are quiet, and have good facilities. But for beginners, it is better to choose places close from your home.
It is because the remote camping areas may need you to take a few hours to arrive there. Then you have to take some time to assemble the gears, make the fire and cook the camping meals. After finishing these series of things, you find it is the sunset. But you haven’t enjoyed the pleasure and relaxed in the beautiful nature yet. Usually, most camping places have mountains. So the sunset happens earlier in these districts than cities.
Moreover, after the camping, you have to cost large of time to organize the equipment and clean the place. If there is a traffic jam on your way back home, I’m afraid that you can’t arrive home until two or three hours later. If so, what the camping brings to you is exhaustion and pressure, but not relax and pleasure.
Tedious Cooking Meals May Make You More Tired.
I just wanna say, tedious cooking meals may make you more tired. For example, camping BBQ, you need to prepare many materials, such as grills, charcoal, meat, beef, and kinds of vegetables.
If you choose to take some food which is easy to store in the camping, it maybe easy for the cooking meal. You don’t have to prepare many cookwares. Give up BBQ. You can save a lot of time in making a fire and roasting. And you could have more time to experience the nature and relax. What is more, you can save a lot of cost.
