Some of us love to go outdoor and to stay to a place surrounded by trees, by the river or by the sea. Therefore, we do camping. However, it is not always easy to camp. Imagine, you will carry a tent and camping items on your back as you travel (or these things occupy your vehicle's space).
Then, you'll have to set up everything own your own. And since your backpack can only carry a few things, you can't even bring your favorite pillow and comforter. All these hassle you bring them with you when you just wanted to relax and camp.

Thanks to glamping, now you can enjoy camping more than before. All the things mentioned above, forget about them. You will just relax and chill as you lay down in soft and fluffy bed with an airconditioned tent. You sip your coffee while mesmerizing by the beach. And you'll just say, "this is life".
WHAT IS GLAMPING
Glamping is a portmanteau of "glamorous" and "camping", and describes a style of camping with amenities and, in some cases, resort-style services not usually associated with "traditional" camping.
WHAT TO PACK FOR GLAMPING
Here are some things you might consider bringing with you for your day tour / adventure:
- Stylish face mask
- Water container/tumbler to rehydrate
- Sunscreen for skin protection
- Goggles for swimming or snorkeling
- Stylish Swimsuit
- Travel backpack / luggage
- Reusable vacuum storage packs
- Selfie stick
- Waterproof phone case
- Acion cam
- Camping tent
- WiFi kit
- Power bank
