Why You Should Do Camping With Your Travel Mates
Romance comes in many shapes and sizes. A lot of us may associate it with occasional candlelit dinners but there are also those who are content with a less upscale form of dating such as exploring a new city with a backpack, or crawling under a tent and camping, while watching the stars, for example.
If you think that romance can be ignited — or reignited — in unconventional ways then I suggest you try out crawling under a tent to watch the stars with your special someone.
1. It beats the summer heat

2. You get undistracted time with each other
Why not enjoy the peace and quiet in nature and grab the chance to talk to each other without gadgets and other distractions.
3. You get to escape from reality for a while
Living life means dealing with so many stressors: the boss, work, bills, gym, appointments, the list can go on. Camping somewhere that cell service can’t reach you is a big plus and it gives you that much-needed break from day-to-day living. A day or two, maybe even more, of camping in a remote area beats any amount of romantic dinner dates and movie nights.
4. You will learn to work as a team
5. You get to see each other’s true selves
No make-up or fancy clothing, no candlelight (just the stars and the moon will do), and no waiter to serve you.
6. You get to see each other’s worst personality
7. It’s an affordable way to go on a date
Let’s admit it. Going on dinner dates in a fancy restaurant every week can create a huge dent in the budget. Instead of spending it there or on a romantic getaway in an all-inclusive resort, why not go camping for a week? You just need to spend some money on food and transportation and borrow your gears from friends. Not only are you able to get an extremely cheap vacation but you get to spend your money on more practical things like your loans, mortgages or even add it up to your wedding fund.
8. You learn to appreciate each other’s strengths
9. You learn to enjoy the simple things in life
It usually becomes so much easier to appreciate things in life when they are no longer there or when they are hard to attain. Cold nights? That’s when you take pleasure in something as simple as a warm fire. Long treks? That will make ordinary water taste as good as wine. No food? I’m sure you’ll enjoy every single bite of that grilled sandwich you packed up earlier. Camping allows you to take appreciation of the simplest pleasures in life.
