#Less is More:
When I first use to go camping, I use to bring SO MANY clothes and tools that I ended up not using! My husband would get so mad at me because it would take us forever to pack the car!
Over the years I figured out what was most useful during our camping trips and mastered my packing skills. It minimized how much STUFF we were bringing, and it also was less stressful.
#Packing Cubes for the WIN!

Amazon – Compression Packing Cubes OR REI – Cotopaxi Travel Cubes
#Lightweight and Compact items
Items such as fast-drying towels, packable pillows, and pots and pans that nest into each other were things I knew NOTHING about when I first started camping. We would LUG around big pots and pans from home and all of our kitchen utensils. But there is a sea of items that are designed for camping and backpacking and are compact, good quality, and lightweight!
#Solar Powered Lights and Battery
These items can be a little pricey, but are such a good investment! It eliminates the need to bring batteries, and worse having to remember to bring batteries. Solar powered items are the best because you can just wake up in the morning and lay everything out to charge, so that when the sun goes down everything is charged up for the night.
Some of our favorite items that I use are:
LUCI Lights- charge them up in the Sun all day and I night they are READY to. One of the best features is that the brightness is adjustable!
I like to wrap them around the canopy for some night soft light around the campsite.
REMEMBER to always have FUN, go with the flow, breathe, and relax
Then again you will be in the great outdoors!
LOVE,
That PISCES GIRL
