RVing is not camping. It's merely an apartment on wheels.
Yah. That's my idea. I grew up and still live in a manner that many would call camping, so when I go camping a tent is luxury, only use one to escape mosquitoes. a small tarp is all I need to keep dry when it rains. Cook over a fire pit and sit on the earth, that's camping. (ideally next to a mountain stream) I will go do that again this summer. I enjoy it, just need someone to say lets go. Going alone doesn't work, might as well stay home and work.
We love camping. But Mira Vista you can get a great or good room. They have a restaurant. Bar, ball room.
Huge hot tub.
But real camping we did three times this summer. 2 times in the pines, once near the desert lake. We have a tent and a queen size bed, and everything we need.
I would love to tell you that being naked for 5 days is amazing. But I hope you all ready know. Walking around naked in the pines, all you have is your day pack and hiking sandals. Ahhh Even at a camp grounds, restrooms, showers, even a central ramada. Where everyone gathers at night to enjoy each other.
I think the best was waking up to see some of the prettiest sun rises. And knowing that you do not have to put clothes on. Ahhh
Not that easy to go naked camping at campsites in the UK, there is one advertised near Studland, but they don't accept single men unless they have kids, so the only people not allowed are unaccompanied single men. So I have to go to another campsite nearby that isn't clothes optional. But at night I will sit by my small fire naked, I sleep in my tent naked, also at night I walk to the toilet and shower building naked, in the morning I put shorts on to go to the toilets, but funny thing is that the toilet and shower block is mixed, there are no urinals, just sit down toilets with doors you can lock. The showers are also mixed in the sense that anyone can use them at any time, there are about 10 shower cubicles with lockable doors but you do have to pay a small fee to use those, but here is also an overflow type area that is free that has a few shower heads on two walls and it's open so anyone can see you if you are using them and I shower naked in that area when I shower there.
I would like to go nude camping more, but I want to try somewhere else that is a proper nude campsite.
