My former girlfriend didn’t like camping from childhood excursions, but it’s important to me and I wanted to reintroduce her right. So the first trip we took was to a tent-camping only campground in the late fall with really close hiking and lots of wildlife. I made baked brie in the campfire the first night, and Moka pot lattes in the morning.
Now we’re married and backpacking and bike-packing are in the cards.
