Camping – Definition
Camping portrays a variety of activities. Most campers begin with little more than their boots, whereas caravan travellers arrive equipped with their own camping tents, water, electricity, heat, and courtyard furniture. When people are camping most of the times they do it in conjunction with many activities, such as fishing, mountain biking, hiking, canoeing, hill walking, climbing and swimming.
There are people who spend their vacations in permanent camps with cabins or camping tents and other facilities (such as children’s summer camps), but a stay at a camp like that is typically not considered “camping”. The term camping may also be applied to people who live outdoors out of necessity such as homeless people or those who are waiting overnight in queues. However, the term camping does not apply to cultures whose technology does not include sophisticated dwellings.
