As much as I love being out in nature, I have no desire to stay in it overnight. I have done some pseudo camping, where I stayed in a yurt and had a shower and toilet facility. I would not consider that actually camping.
Real camping to me is being out where none of our modern conveniences exist and I have no desire to do that. I like to shower daily and use toilets. The idea is romantic and I think about it a lot. Now that I have the pain disorder the idea is even less palatable. Pain is hard to manage at home with all my tools and options.
I admire people who can do it. People who do it properly without leaving a trace of themselves in nature. It is a beautiful thing.
