Blog: www.nilipod.com Instagram: @nilipod & @idknia | Snapchat: nilipod Camping Vlog in the School Holidays, How to Put Up a Tent in Garden Campsite This was our very first time camping together and I'd been planning this for ages with my YouTuber friends Orla and Tess. We thought that it would be fun to practice camping in the back garden first, during a weekend in the half-term school holidays, vlogging the weekend fun. We'd never put up a tent before in our lives, and so we watched some YouTube videos first, which show you how to put up a tent, with step by step instructions, and some that were speeded up as well. We wanted to practice, as hopefully we'll be going on a camping trip for real in the summer, maybe hiking or backpacking - if any campsites will let us! Our particular tent is a four-man / 4-berth / four-person tent (with 3 poles), with a suggested pitching time of 30 minutes, from start to finish. It has standing height, is very lightweight, has a sewn-in groundsheet and a double lining with ventilation - to reduce morning dew inside. It is a HiGear Rock 4 Tent which was purchased as a special offer from the Go Outdoors store, with 2 large sleeping pods. It was relatively easy to put up and secure the guy ropes with the pins. Ideally we wanted to go camping in the New Forest or some woodlands, or maybe Exmoor National Park or Dartmoor, or at the Glastonbury Music Festival, but the back garden was the next best camping site this time - there are lots of trees but no wild animals! Once we'd set up the tent and a wind break, we blew up the inflatable mattresses (double mattress / double airbeds from Asda - made by Ozark). We found plenty of things to do on our camping trip, cooking vegetarian Quorn burgers on the gas barbecue / BBQ (from Ikea), playing games, lighting a bonfire in our small fire pit, toasting marshmallows, drinking hot chocolate, and other outdoor recreational activities, etc. We had lots of camping gear, battery powered LED lights / lanterns for inside the tent, a fold-up table and chairs, and other campsite gadgets / inventions, and we learnt some camp tips and hacks along the way.
