Hate it. The bugs. The sticky tents.
The lack of cozy comforts like crisp sheets, a firm mattress, and a/c. The nasty lonely scent of the woods. The terrible food cooked over a campfire, when you really want delish tapas or Chinese. The weather. The critters. The nasty rashes and itches and god knows what from brushing up against all manner of mystery shrubbery. The hiking along twisty ankle rocky terrain. I HATE iT. |

Ok.
|
| Lol at “nasty lonely scent of the woods.” |
| Hopefully the person/people for whom you are making this sacrifice will appreciate it! |

My problem is that I agree with some of those things (like just wanting a comfortable bed or a meal cooked in a kitchen, and no one likes mosquitos) but actually really like other aspects of camping. I like hiking, I like sitting around a campfire, I like the smells and sounds of the woods.
I’m a cabin person. |

Agreed op. Glamping isn't real camping.
Then if you do real camping, who enjoys a trip where you can't even shower for 2 days, have to eat food cooked out of dirty dishes repeatedly, bugs, and potentially crapping in the woods? Or there are campsites with absolutely vile bathrooms. It's disgusting. |
| I agree with you on most items you highlighted except for the food part. You should have married someone that was better cook. |
| I’d rather cut off my arm than camp in a tent. That’s not a vacation. Period. |
| I am the OP amd forgot the foul aroma of nasty Porta Potties. And peeing in the woods. Omg. Help |
| Camping is for poor people. |
| I agree 100 percent. |
+1 Nicely written although I love that smell. |
| The best thing about camping is coming home. No matter how shabby your own home is, it's like a palace compared to camping. A refrigerator? A bathroom with a door that closes? Heaven. |

DH always wants to camp. He likes the feeling of hiking a hill, building a fire, roasting a piece of meat, accomplishing masculine outdoor things.
Not me. |
Haha I also like the smell of fresh mountain air. I do not like the smell of all your stuff after it’s been near a campfire. |
