Camping:
-
If you don’t have outdoor access, try setting up your tent in your living room. Plop the opening in front of the TV for an exciting theatre setup.
-
Gather all necessary supplies to make this as comfortable as possible, especially flashlights/headlamps and some bug spray!
-
Pile up all the fluffy blankets and pillows your heart desires, no lugging around equipment this time around!
-
Hang some string lights at the top of your tent for an extra cozy atmosphere.
-
Lie back and enjoy the stars, if they’re visible. How often do you take the time to do this?!
-
Share some scary stories to really get into the camping spirit.
-
Lastly, leave all cell phones outside of the tent until the morning. Try to stay as disconnected as possible and live in the moment!
