Hi Rose, I am just back from a camping trip/retreat in the hills of North Wales. Lots of walking, moss, wild swimming, meditation and a nature writing workshop. Bliss 😊

I'm so grateful to have stumbled across this post. You have captured so much beauty in simplicity, in nature and in your journey. I used to go camping yearly before my children were born, I loved every minute of it. Your post brought that feeling back. It’s filled with such warm, grounding energy, I love it.💚

This is awesome, great pictures and watercolors. I’ve been thinking about picking up a watercolor set for a similar project: a gardening journal. Thanks for the read and the inspiration!

This looks so magical and is getting me excited for my own camping trip in 2 weeks, also the first of 2025! You’re inspiring me to bring a craft, possibly my embroidery project 💚

You just described my ideal weekend! It looks beautiful there and I would love to explore BC more! We just took a little road trip and camped in Eastern Oregon and I’m already itching to get back out there. It’s just the best feeling ✨

So dreamy! I miss mountains. Grew up in mountainous places, now living in the very flat Mid West lol. We have a couple camping trips planned later this summer, both on Lake Huron/Michigan Thumb area.

Haven't read Demon Copperhead myself but my mom said the same thing you did about it

Fun! Those camping trips will be beautiful. And funny your Mom said the same thing! It’s a good book though :)

Lovely photos and journal entries. I like the idea of camping in theory, especially if it involves painting and reading, but I’m very weary of insects. So probably not for me, but I do like reading about others camping trips :)
