I love Brighton (my first camping trip to Brighton is what made me apply to uni there years later) but also the Lake District is just insanely beautiful!

1. A tool kit for a start! Which includes duct tape!

2. Secondly, I'd say a gas stove, hot drinks and food is an absolute blessing on chilly evenings or after a long drive or hike!

3. Lastly I'd say my little portable solar panel, it's great for a quick charge up of the leisure battery, phone, torch etc. And it tucks away nicely behind my driving seat!

I am genuinely a nervous driver, I passed my test just before the pandemic so never really had a lot of solo driving experience. Having to drive around a big old brick has definitely helped boost my driving confidence! It also really helps my anxiety to be able to know if I ever need to escape to a beautiful nature spot to calm down and clear my head, I can.

being able to take yourself to places you may never have experienced otherwise. For me, not just physically either. The emotional connection I have to some of these beautiful places is almost healing.
