I like being outdoors and things like hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, etc. but not camping. I'm by no stretch of the imagination a people person and the idea of sleeping in tents with a bunch of other people.....no thanks.

I do enjoy camping. I hadn't been camping for over a decade until I went this last July. I love hiking, so that is something I enjoy doing when I do camp. I hope to do more camping in the future, but it's hard to when I need someone to feed my cats.
I haven't been out much recently due to this COVID stuff, but I do go tent camping, both modern and medieval sometimes (yes, I'm a medieval re-enactor too).

Yeah, the whole point of camping is that you get chance to be anti-social, isn't it? If you wanted to spend time with actually people you could stay at a hotel or book a group tour.
Oh, last time I did that was when I was in Mongolia! We did a Yurt Stay, where you got to spend a week with a family of traditional Mongolian farmers. Looking after the goats and horse riding was fun. Pooping into a hole not so much.
When my parents used to take us camping in the Lake District they told us if we were able to catch a lamb we could take it home as a pet. So my brother, sister and I spent most of our camping trips chasing sheep.

I never experienced camping, just short picnics at parks.
In my country as I was growing up it seemed to be unsafe.
Now that I am an adult and I get sick all the time there is never an opportunity or a chance.

I'm not a camping person, not at all
we never did so as a family, because my mum hates it with a passion. I've only done it on sports camp, and that was just camping on the fields.
I don't see the point of downgrading for relaxation. I don't enjoy working, especially physical labor, I just want to either do something fun or relax. I'd rather go to a luxurious cabin or just stay at home.
