    Appreciate many videos on the web are set up and edited but must admit I found this one intriguing.  Shows a lone female erecting a tent in the rain, then furnishing it and finally cooking.  TikTok video so may not play correctly on a mobile, unless you have tiktok installed.  Sound by default tends to be off on TikTok but on this one the main sound is the rain.

    OMG, that's amazing...and I'd call that "glamping".  What a posh way to camp.  Love the tent, her dog and the whole stile of her camping experience.  She really brought in technology for the best comfort.  I noticed she even added the exhaust pipe for cooking safety inside the tent.  Cool!

    I like the inflatable method or erection.  I've never actually camped, slept outside once of the deck of a ship but never actually had a camping experience.

    Inflatable tents does seem much easier than erecting and balancing those poles to frame in a tent.  I've camped a number of times in my childhood, either with the Girl Scouts, or through Church trips with my family.  It's easier when you're younger to "rough it".  Sleeping on a deck ship would be peaceful.
