    I've tried a number of camping pillows and the Trekology, Aluft Ultra is the most comfortable.

    Weather looked great, I always used my coat as a pillow, then I bought a camping pillow, I normally forget to take it with me, but when I do it's great, the trick is not to over inflate it. Great film thanks for sharing, now looking for that book 🙂

    Lovely video, thanks! It looks like a really beautiful spot! There really is something special about being alone (or just me and my dog) in nature at night. And I also love a stop at a bakery for a good coffee in the morning afterwards! Re pillows, I've found the Nemo Fillo Luxury Elite and the Trekology 2.0 are both pretty good. The latter is pretty cheap and has a strap for attaching it to your pad, which is useful. For winter, a pad with good R value, like the Nemo Tensor All Seasons (R5.5) and a good quilt (I like the Katabatic Sawatch) or sleeping bag (I use the Western Mountaineering Antelope when it's super cold). I like tarp and bivy camping when possible and have used the Borah Gear Cuben bivy in sub zero temps with a tarp, but when I'm expecting windy conditions I use either the Durston X-Mid 1 solid or the Hilleberg Niak. Keep the videos coming 🙂

      @@UKCARRIEOUTDOORS A tip I forgot to mention is double pillow up, get a decent cousiony neck pillow, put the neck pillow on top or underneath your Eurohike flannel camping pillow for extra comfortability, the Eurohike flannel pillow is comfortable on its own but adding that neck pillow as well might be even more comfortable and the neck pillow can also support your neck even more and support your shoulder adding that cousin between your neck and shoulder so you're not causing shoulder cramp. I swear by this, I even do this method just sleeping in my normal bed at home

    Ive always used an air pillow due to a sport injury when i was 25 . My neck hurts if i cant keep my spine inline & an air pillow allows some adjustment in height by releasing air until im comfortable. Hope that helps. Massive hugs, Mick X

      I've had 4 German Shepherd"s & everyone of them was loved & brought up with lots of tlc so they were all beautiful & soft as cob webs. Be careful of adopting a big dog because not everyone is kind to them & it's possible you could end up with a lot of problems, a puppy is always best. Stay safe & pain free , Gigantic hugs, Mick X

    Coincidentally, the other day, a colleague asked why I go wild camping and spend an entire evening sat watching a fire or listening to an audiobook. I call it ‘guilt free relaxation.’ ie. If you were at home and sat down to read a book or chill, you feel guilty, because there’s always loads of chores or odd jobs that you should be getting on with. Whereas when you’re in the middle of nowhere, you can relax without guilt.
    I got into stoicism a few years ago and it’s really given me a much more relaxed, laidback outlook on life. There’s loads of books and teachings, but the bedrock of stoicism is basically understanding what you can and can’t control in life, and being able to quit worrying about things that are beyond your control. I’d recommend stoicism as a life choice to anyone.
    Another great video Carrie 👌

    I'm really glad you've managed to get back out again. I managed to get a night out in my van. Only 5 minutes away from home. But it's a start. I downloaded a film and cuddled up with the pups ❤️

    Firstly you don't look like 38 more like 28 ..must be the fresh air and nature 😊 second you can never go wrong with spending time in nature love I'm 45 and I'm planning my next camping trip. Keep on exploring and enjoy! ❤

    Lovely vlog, you have some real bottle...
    Tell me, did you ever go back to that place where 'you left in a hurry in the middle of the night?' That alone would have finished me...

    Camping pillows tend to be either compressible, for packing, or inflatable.
    Neither are good.

    This looks nice. When I try to solo camp, I attract busybodies, weirdos, excessively friendly people and dog walkers. This even happens to me in the middle of Dartmoor in the winter. I have now decided to get a campervan instead lol.
