• Thanks for watching! ⛺️ I wanted this list to be simple and hopefully not overwhelming, so you can spend less time packing, and more time camping! I hope it's helpful 😁

• Just found your channel, love it 😊😊😊❤

• Loved the light part with the dancing and when you couldn't find the setting, I laughed too loud at my desk, everyone thought I was nuts. Helpful video !

• OMYGOSH LOVE THIS & YOUR CHANNEL! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

• I’m sure those chairs are comfortable but those chairs do not look comfortable.

• Party site over here!! Hahaha love it

• Great video! I also make outdoors videos for beginners for anyone interested. Cheers

• Great videos new to the channel… Love it you guys be safe.👍

• Great ideas! I’ve only been Glamping a few times with my family and friends. And I’m still learning. So thanks for sharing your amazing tips! I especially love using headlamps too! But I would like to suggest that if you’re packing oral or IV meds (and makeup), they should be kept cool inside an insulated bag or cooler…separate from food if possible. Also if only 2 people are going to be in a larger tent or cube for more wiggle room and gear it can get a little cold even on Summer nights. So sleeping in a sleeping bag on an air mattress inside a smaller tent placed within the larger tent or cube will help keep you relatively warmer. This hack also comes in handy for when there is a long power outage at home. Of course spraying and sealing the outer tent will keep you dry. But just in case of an unexpected leak, sleeping inside of the little tent within your larger tent or cube will help keep you dry. This works best for car camping.😉👍

• May I suggest getting a fleece blanket that zips up like a sleeping bag. When it's warm or hot out they will keep you plenty warm. Used as a liner for your main sleeping bag it will roast you out. For lighting I like to use a propane lantern, throws plenty of light around your site. Also runs a single burner stove. Finally, I've been tent/car camping for over 50 years now and probably have enough equipment to outfit a whole company. There's a real art to bringing only what you'll need.

• I'm alone in my living room watching this and literally went "yessssss" out loud when you said "Exped" just because they're so good and I love mine so much!!

• My husband said if I wanted an air matress I had to hand pump it. The battery operated pump is smaller but it's worth it

• We camp with 3-5 kids depending on the week, they're all little so we all share a tent right now.

• if you're going to car camp you should have a few luxury items car camp in style since weight is not an issue

• Mummy bag also works as a birth control device while in those cozy tents

• Propane stove..? We always put a pot or pan onto our campfire 😂
  I don't think these videos are for me!! Thanks though, it's probably a great video for someone just starting out!

• My boyfriend And I are going camping, I've been going camping all my life for almost all summer, every summer. And I mean camping, not camp sites, we'd go deep into the woods for months where no one could bother us, so fun!!
  It's going to be my boyfriend's first time camping.
  I bought the 2 of us a 6 person tent. I've never, EVER been in a tent the size you're in.
  For 6 of us my family got a tent that would have fit 3-4 queen mattresses 😳
  Didn't know tents were even made this small until buying one for myself this year!

  Anyways, I'm excited to show off my camping skills, since he's a city boy and I grew up on a farm and camping all my life 😂😏

• 7:14 – 7:44 LOL. I love this part so much.

• Nice channel Amanda and the way you present things, simple and easy not too complicated. Can you talk about lights? Lanterns.

• What about safety-wise? If your going solo camping and want protection against animals, or other…

• One pillow? If your are car camping I’d bring two or three🤗 but that’s just me. Video thank you I just subscribe to your channel too, I think it’s a good one.

• thank. The video is great.I go camping by car.I'll be back.

• Hey! I loved the video! It's so informative! I added it to the latest article on my blog. Feel free to check it out.

• What sleeping bag you use?

• Exped Megamats are the very best for car camping. We own three single mats and a double.

• If you are car camping you can take a tent you can stand up in. Why take a backpacking tent car camping. Utter nonsense!!!!

• What’s in your med kit?

• This has a lot of good info. I’m camping at a campground in a local state park next month and will have an electrical set up, so I’ll be eating using my itakipot- but that won’t work if I start going camping with more people.

• What brands are your sleeping bags?

• Thanks for this. Very concise and easy to follow. Thanks for listing also the items and links. Going camping for the first time next month !!

• 7:17 😂😂

• Cool party light 🤪

• What National Forest did you go to? It looks really beautiful!

• Car camping sounds like a great option for a beginner like me

• What brand is your mummy sleeping bag?

• I love your channel ❤️

• Thanks dor the video!

• How do I power everything like charging my phone and torch etc? Also how to get water and wash my hair? Do camp site usually have these supplied already?

• Diggin' the Vivobarefoot Trackers, I got my 1st pair last year and they are the best footwear I've ever worn.

• Informative video…but if you camp long term , then how do you wash and dry ur cloths ?
