Glamping

When you mention camping at a party or among your relatives and friends, people around don't seem to be feeling enthusiastic about it. If you mention glamping, everybody's eyebrows rise. Few of us know very much about this modern trend, but it's becoming fashionable little by little.

Glamping is upscale camping in which a tent large enough to walk through replaces the pup tent, bedding takes the place of the sleeping bag, a nice rug covers the plastic floor. In short, it's more comfortable, civilized camping. People have turned their attention to it because it's more comfortable yet it has all the advantages of being closer to nature. If you go camping, forget the shower and comfy slippers in the morning. When you go glamping, you can enjoy all those things. Comfort is really important if you plan to spend a week or more out there, in the wild. As you probably have already understood, glamping is a word made out of 'camping' and 'glamorous'.

So, what might be necessary if you want to transform your camp into a glamp? First of all, you will need a tent large enough to walk upright all the way through. Don't forget a couple of small chairs for the tent – one on the inside and the other outside near the main door. You might also want commercial rubber kitchen mats for the exterior at the door of the tent. These are also handy for the floor of the camp kitchen or around the picnic table. Having these eliminates or at least greatly reduces problems related to mud in high traffic areas or in case it rains.

Having a shower is the dream of any camper. With glamping the shower stall will have no floor (a small plastic mat to cover the ground will do to avoid the mud and grass issues) and be made of lightweight polyethylene. To complete your shower you'll need water. Experienced travellers say a tank with a hand pump works just great. To heat the tank you'll need a propane heating stand. This shower system isn't luxurious by any means, but after all it enables you to take a shower and wash and rinse your hair. With some economy, you'll need between 5 to 10 gallons of water per person.

Then comes the problem of bedding. Glamping means you get in and out of bed without crawling on your hands and knees, so put your bed on a stand. Bring your sheets and blankets and pillows. If you really want your camp to be glamorous, buy a 'bed in a bag' – these come with a comforter and pillow covers. You might also go for such options as an inflatable mattress or a foam mattress topper.

The rest will be totally your choice. You may want some extra indoor or outdoor carpeting or coolers to hold plenty of block ice (nice on a hot summer day!) or lanterns with remote control, a camp kitchen, tablecloths for the picnic table. One thing is for sure – you will definitely need a small trailer to haul it all! Enjoy your glamping trip!
