My husband and I also do a “Latte Walk” every morning. It’s not first thing because we have kids but after everyone’s gotten ready and had breakfast he and I take our coffee outside and walk around and talk about the day and the garden. Almost year round even though we live in New England! Best part of the day
Hey @amandaoutside, I know you plan out your trips as I’m sure you are conscious about the weather but perhaps you could show a video of rainy camp days and what your routine is? It’s April but the winter weather storms seem to keep on rolling in 😊
Thanks so much for the reply. Yes! Not a lot of precipitation comes to one of our favorite lakes that we like to fish and hike but lately it’s been non-stop snow and rain with no end in sight. Hopefully these April showers bring many wildflowers 🌼
I have two types of journals - nature journal and camping journal. Of the two I’m much more disciplined about writing in my camping journal. I include info about the campground/campsite, local sites I visited, other campers I’ve met, meals I’ve made, notes on any problems that have cropped up with my camper. I love reading my past entries of my camping experiences.
Been doing morning pages for 101 days as of this morning, and what a difference in my day! I use my phone for meditation music while I journal, but it is tucked away so I can hear it not see it. Been journalling outside lately seeing the manitoba weather is nice and warm now.
WOW Amanda, what a morning. I usually wake up and think about my dreams. I heard that some of us dream about the future. Then I think, are my teeth in. Then I say good morning to my guarding Angels. Let's not forget a trip to the bathroom. Then coffee. Have a nice day, Amanda !
@Gary Pitoniak, sounds like a lovely morning 😊 I also say goodmorning to God and my guardian angels. Blessings from Poland 🇵🇱 and my channel 😀. Feel free to check out!
Thank you Amanda, it is good to keep away from the screen when you can. And Nick, I love your camera work! When I see a slight shift in the back ground, I know it's you holding the camera and not a tripod. You make a good team!
Funny; I have the opposite approach to first-thing screen time. Typically, when I wake up, I have a ton of emails piled up. Most are junk, but some are "important" (or so the writers think). Until I get through those, I don't relax. I want to get that out of the way, and not worry about them any longer. Then I can start my day!
Lol. Don't think I've ever checked insta or email first thing in AM. But, as soon as I start brushing teeth or getting shower ready I search RUclips!!! If I added up all the hours I've used RUclips it would be horrific to see!!
Morning journaling has completely changed my life. For me, it involves bible study. For others it may be something else. It is essential for peace. I also do the morning electrolyte drink while I'm doing my bible study/journaling.
'I' wake up, crawl out of my nice WARM sleeping bag, get dressed and go visit the bushes... THEN I make my coffee and enjoy the sun waking up too.. my 1st cup is a SOLO thing... then we start the day... LOL been missing you and your vids for a bit, no notifications...
I love your videos, have watched almost all of them. This one is no exception. Can hardly wait to start our camping in a month. Still snowing here in Oregon.
Lovely as always. But…girl, how in the world do you brush your teeth Before drinking your coffee? I’ve never understood that lol. Thanks for another good video and have a great day!
I make my own electrolytes. Redmans sea salt, nu salt and magnesium.. The only thing in this world that has stopped 20+ years of non stop muscle spasms
Journaling is such a girl thing to do for relaxation I’m so glad guys don’t need to talk about their feelings. The reminder of your morning was relaxing have fun stay safe.
After watching this video I am not going to look at my phone when I first get up. I will read my morning meditations, say my prayers and have a good cup of coffee first.!
I loved everything about this video. I actually was jealous of how you just pop out of the tent and start your routine. When I get out of a tent like yours I need 500 milligrams of ibuprofen, heat pack, a chiropractor adjustment on my spine and a buddy system so I can get myself into a sitting position. Oh. No. I'm become what I have feared growing up....a grumpy, whining old curmudgeon. But we all know that the first coffee in the morning cures all ills. Keep your videos coming Amanda. Your top shelf!
Hey Amanda, love the morning coffee walks. My son Nick and I often walk the campgrounds in the mornings. It’s great to feel the morning air with a nice mug of coffee. 😊☕️
The peace and fulfillment one gets in the naked outdoors is the payback for the effort, plus so much more. Recollections of the past, an eye to the future. Sometimes sad, often revelatory, always worth it.
The coffee walks are so awesome! We do one almost every morning and we both really love it. It feels good to get some movement and sunshine in first thing. Thanks for commenting Mark!
Love it and totally agree about device's. My routine is all about the coffee. I love firing up my little burner for coffee outside first thing. Everything's better outside. Thank you.
My morning camping routine: 1. Wake up. 2. Brush teeth. 3. Wash face. 4. Open beer. 5. Make bacon. 6. Drink beer/ eat bacon. Not necessarily in that order.
I have what i call my brain dump notebooks. No rhyme or reason or organization. Literally just a brain dump. Usually filled with things to work out, calculations or prioritize larger lists into smaller lists, writing out brainstorms for projects and materials that if they become more refine make it out of the brain dump into its own notebook.
Where can i gind electrolyte mix? My husband needs some when hes working outside. My old boss had them for me when i worked summers outside too but i dont know where to find it.
Amanda I find better then a morning coffee and walk is an early trip to the stream and to throw a few cast to some rising fish. What happened I thought you were bitten by the fly fishing bug last year
Oh no! I'm glad you're recovered and feeling better. The electrolye drink really makes a difference in how I feel throughout the day, especially when I'm outside sweating in the sun!
went camping down near Saint George this weekend & it was much needed! we were nestled in between canyon walls and the mornings were stunning! ☀️ ready for summer! ✌🏽
Another amazing tip for hydration! There are many choices but you always have a great list of good choices for us the fellow outdoors people. Thanks Joe & Christina from California
Who else LOVES the morning?! 🙋♀️ Hope you enjoyed this relaxing vlog! Thank you for watching 💚

I love to hear it! We try to do it year round as well. It's become such a great time to connect!
A dream❤
Hey @amandaoutside, I know you plan out your trips as I’m sure you are conscious about the weather but perhaps you could show a video of rainy camp days and what your routine is? It’s April but the winter weather storms seem to keep on rolling in 😊
I would love to do that! In general we don't get a lot of rain here in Utah, but this Spring has been wild... it just snowed!
Thanks so much for the reply. Yes! Not a lot of precipitation comes to one of our favorite lakes that we like to fish and hike but lately it’s been non-stop snow and rain with no end in sight. Hopefully these April showers bring many wildflowers 🌼
Ditching my smart phone and interacting with nature and people more was and is a big positive for me.

I LOVE MORNING!!! I have to wake up early for work, but I get up EARLIER on weekends, because I don't want to miss a minute!
Yes!! The mornings are such a special time! I love the quiteness and possibilities and excitment for the day to come! 🤗
Been doing morning pages for 101 days as of this morning, and what a difference in my day! I use my phone for meditation music while I journal, but it is tucked away so I can hear it not see it. Been journalling outside lately seeing the manitoba weather is nice and warm now.
love the coffee walks! What a great idea! I'm gonna try that with my BF 🤗💕
Yes!! We've been doing coffee walks for years and love it!
What good ideas,sunshine before screens and coffee walks. That sounds like something I could do!
Absolutely! I really look forward to that time in the morning now!
WOW Amanda, what a morning. I usually wake up and think about my dreams. I heard that some of us dream about the future. Then I think, are my teeth in. Then I say good morning to my guarding Angels. Let's not forget a trip to the bathroom. Then coffee. Have a nice day, Amanda !

Thank you for an awesome video. I like the idea of not looking at the cell phone first thing in the morning.
I really look forward to my mornings now! I just love having my coffee and sitting quitely before the crazyness of the day! Glad you liked the video 🤗

I love all your videos, but this video and the last were some of my favorites.
I'm so glad! I really loved making this one. I think it might be one of my favorites this year so far! Thank you for watching 😁
I love your videos, have watched almost all of them. This one is no exception. Can hardly wait to start our camping in a month. Still snowing here in Oregon.
We had a few warm days, but now it's supposed to snow again this week. I'm so ready for summer to get here!!
Very well structured morning routine. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome!!
Love your pants! What brand are they please??
They are from Athleta. I linked to them in the description! I love them so much I bought them in 2 colors!
A great reason to eat more gelato 😆 - great video, thx !
loved this! although not mornings so much.
Morning sunshine
Lovely as always. But…girl, how in the world do you brush your teeth Before drinking your coffee? I’ve never understood that lol. Thanks for another good video and have a great day!
such a relaxing morning routine!!! so curious.. what coffee do u like and use ??? 😋
We love to try all different kinds! I usually prefer a medium roast though 😁
I make my own electrolytes. Redmans sea salt, nu salt and magnesium.. The only thing in this world that has stopped 20+ years of non stop muscle spasms
I'm sure the salt is healthy but the coffee fresh looked unbeatable.
coffee in the morning really is what gets me out of the tent 😂
Love this video! And great tip about no phone in the morning. Where are your shoes from?
They are from Vivobarefoot. They don't sell the exact ones anymore, but I liked to similar ones in the description.
Come camping in Australia 😊
Waw
Journaling is such a girl thing to do for relaxation I’m so glad guys don’t need to talk about their feelings. The reminder of your morning was relaxing have fun stay safe.
Its good for us to disconnect from tech. Do something old school like pen and paper
Absolutely!
After watching this video I am not going to look at my phone when I first get up. I will read my morning meditations, say my prayers and have a good cup of coffee first.!
Love to hear it!

Thank you Bob! Coffee does cure all ills 😉
Hilarious
I know exactly what you are talking about. Still fun. Sometimes us older folks just go out to cook a meal, come home to my soft bed.
Loved your morning routine, especially getting your coffee and journaling before screen time! Thanks for sharing and have a great week.
You're welcome! Thank you for commenting. I hope you have a great week too!
This video was so cute and so helpful!!
I'm so glad!! Thank you for commenting 😊
Hey Amanda, love the morning coffee walks. My son Nick and I often walk the campgrounds in the mornings. It’s great to feel the morning air with a nice mug of coffee. 😊☕️
This was another fun watch! I'm in the planning stages now for my first camp of the season! Your tips and recipes have been a great help!
The peace and fulfillment one gets in the naked outdoors is the payback for the effort, plus so much more. Recollections of the past, an eye to the future. Sometimes sad, often revelatory, always worth it.
Sunshine before screens! this is so awesome. I always read about it and how its so good for you. But now I will enforce it thanks!
I love your videos. I've been camping since the 60s. You do a lot of the same stuff we do but more streamlined. Your recipes are fantastic!
Completely agree with putting away the devices. Take in all of the sensory experiences of being outside - in nature! Love the coffee walk idea!
The coffee walks are so awesome! We do one almost every morning and we both really love it. It feels good to get some movement and sunshine in first thing. Thanks for commenting Mark!

Oh u do the ground coffee when u camp..i always do instant coffee..i need that caffeine as soon as I get up 😆
Can you share the location of your camping spot in this video?
I love your morning routine! I stopped using a smart phone completely a year ago and use a basic mp3 for music on the go. I love it so much.
It's just so easy to get sucked into other things when you pick up the phone. Love the idea of going back to a basic music player!
Where did you get the coffee grinder ??
Love your channel my wife loves pancakes in the morning when we camp.
Pancakes are a go-to for me because they're so easy, quick, and delicious!
@@amanda.outside I agree we are going to Blanding UT in July for a camping trip and they will be on our menu
What are your boots?
Good water drink, I was in the hospital with severe sodium lost, too 2 months to recover, wear a hat 👍😁 take care and have fun!
Oh no! I'm glad you're recovered and feeling better. The electrolye drink really makes a difference in how I feel throughout the day, especially when I'm outside sweating in the sun!
Take me with u
I wonder if you enjoy boiled eggs with a dab of soy sauce
@snakebite210, sounds actually delicious 🌞. Greetings from Poland and my lifestyle and freedom channel 😀
Very relaxing and lovely video!!
So beautiful, amazing, and wonderful. Much Blessings to you. Thanks for sharing, Lord-Jesus-Christ com
Love the morning routine! But I love all your videos 😁🥾⛺️

Thank you so much! 😊 I appreciate your comment!
Wonderful advice!!!
went camping down near Saint George this weekend & it was much needed! we were nestled in between canyon walls and the mornings were stunning! ☀️ ready for summer! ✌🏽
I'm so ready for summer too! St. George is one of my favorite places, especially this time of year. Glad you had a good trip 😁
Another amazing tip for hydration! There are many choices but you always have a great list of good choices for us the fellow outdoors people. Thanks
Joe & Christina from California
Glad to hear it! Nick and I absolutely love that electrolyte mix!
Yes you overcrowd the pan with those delicious looking pancakes I bet you they still taste great.
The sure did!! 😁
