Top 5 AMAZING Camping Spots







Summer time offers many outdoor activities, hiking, swimming, and of course camping. Whether you are traveling to another country, or looking for a new adventure closer to home,  camping is the most affordable and scenic way to spend a vacation. As a regular camper, I am always looking for a new spot that offers something more exciting. Here are the Top 5 most insane and amazing camping spots across the world!


5. Tree Camping, Germany




These awesome hanging tents, or portaledges, are the specialty of the Waldseilgarten camping resort in Germany. For roughly 200 dollars a night, the resort will give you an elevated tent high in the trees or on a cliff-side, provide you with all the gear, and they even feed you!

4. The Human Nest, California, USA





Treebones Resort in Big Sur, California is a totally unique experience (this one I definitely want to go to) since you actually get to sleep in a human sized bird nest. The structures are built just as a bird would, and to keep the natural feel they are not waterproof, so bring a tent just in case. Watching the sunset from a nest high in the tree tops is well worth the risk.


3. Sahale Glacier, Washington, USA





The incredible site offers views of snow-capped peaks as well as alpine meadows, lakes and the breathtaking Sahale glacier. Campers are able to wake up to fresh mountain air and some of the most stunning views in the world. A short walk from the camp and you can also discover glacier lilies in the summer, mountain blueberries in the autumn and even a local population of marmots!


2. Mud Huts, Sweden



Camping in a tent too boring for you? What about a hut-style tent, made out of real mud, no electricity, no heat, or running water? I say "YES!" to the STF Kolarbyn Hotel in Sweden. Get truly connected the earth in this truly primitive camp site. 


1. Cliff Camping, Worldwide




It takes some serious guts, and love of heights to pitch a tent off the side of a 4000 foot cliff. With the right gear, and ability cliff camping can be done almost anywhere. If climbing the side of cliff isn't thrilling enough for you, then camping there should be perfect for you!

San Gregorio, San Mateo County, California  The small town of San Gregorio, home to only 287 people is just south of San Francisco. This is the oldest nude beach in the United States.

Top 5 Mistakes to AVOID this Summer

      We all make mistakes, but when you are hiking, or going camping, mistakes can be deadly. Anything from wearing the wrong shoes, to not having enough clean water to drink can be inconvenient at home, but in the woods it can turn into a matter of life and death. Here is my life of top 5 mistakes to AVOID this summer. 5. Over/Under Packing When getting ready to go on a hike it can be so easy to cram a weeks worth of stuff into your pack, even if you are only going for a day or two. Extra clothes, that really cute sun hat you never get to wear, towels, extra shoes etc can all add weight to your pack that you don't need or want on a long hike. While you may think it is worth the extra weight in your pack, your back and neck will be hating you for it later. Packing light and only bringing the necessities can be scary at first, but once you realize you don't NEED all of that stuff,  you will find yourself less tired and sore than you would with a heavier bag. ...

LEGENDARY FEMALE PIRATE

Anne Bonny (left) and Mary Read (right) Anne Bonny was born in Kinsale, Ireland around 1697, and was the illegitimate daughter of lawyer William Cormac and his maid Marry Brennan. After William's wife made this news public, his reputation was ruined, so he left Ireland for a fresh start in the New World. He settled with his new family in Charleston, South Carolina where he started a new legal career, and bought a plantation. Anne's mother died in her late teens, and she had to take care of her father's household. There are many stories about Anne's teen years, claiming she murdered a servant girl with a knife, and another about a man she put in the hospital for attempting to sexually assault her. When Anne was sixteen years old, she fell in love with a pirate, James Bonny. Anne's father was against the relationship, but she married James anyways. William disowned Anne, and this is when Anne Bonny's life changed forever. James took his new wife to New Prov...
