[quote=Anonymous]Do you have to work an intense job Monday and Tuesday before you leave? If that were me, I'd want the weekend to get ready for the vacation. If not, it seems more doable.

Also depends on how high stakes each trip is and how much experience you have getting ready for it.

Backpacking camping in the wilderness where you need to map out places to get water and carry everything you need on your back? That takes a ton of time to plan so you have everything but don't overpack. Camping at a campground where you can buy firewood and run to a store if necessary? Totally low stakes and doable IF you have the basic supplies somewhat organized.

Similarly with the vacation. If it's to a developed country where you can buy almost anything you might forget, less pressure to pack perfectly than something more remote.

Also depends on your family and how well you sleep when camping. I camp a lot but don't always sleep well since everyone in the tent ends up piling on top of me, so I like a chill week when I return. I wouldn't want to cope with jet lag and a museum-heavy vacation on top of a camping hangover, but I'd be cool going to a rental house or resort on the beach where I could relax.[/quote]
