Camping Tips - What Are the Essential Items to Bring?

1. Safe space

Safety is the most important thing when camping outdoors. Before going to sleep, check the surrounding area to make sure it's safe - are there any loose branches in the trees above that could fall, have you dug drainage channels in case of rain, etc.

2. Flat sleeping area

A flat and comfortable area is very important for good sleep. Try to avoid uneven or sloped ground when setting up camp.

3. Take care of the tent

Keep the tent zipped up at all times to keep out mosquitoes and bugs. Roll up your sleeping bag before going to bed to prevent dampness.

4. Bring a set of clean sleepwear

Camping conditions are harsh, so it's easy to get food smells and dirt on you. Remember to pack a set of clean clothes to sleep in.

5. Prepare for keeping warm

The outdoors is unpredictable and the weather fickle, so always be prepared to keep warm. Bring thicker clothes and sleeping bags, just in case. Put the clothes you'll wear the next day inside your sleeping bag before bed, so you won't be cold when you put them on.

6. Bring a flashlight

Camping outdoors at night is full of the unknown. So make sure you're prepared for emergencies. Put a headlamp or flashlight next to your sleeping area. That way you can quickly find your way in an emergency, and a bit of light can help you relax.

7. Bring ample food and water

Based on the number of people, prepare enough food and water. Divide up responsibilities - have each person bring some food and water, to avoid potential shortages.
