Go camping? No way! I don't want to stay in the wet woods for the whole night. I don't like mosquitoes(蚊子)even poisonous snakes around me, many people think.
But I think one of the best ways to get back to nature is camping. Because you can see wildlife during the day and watch stars at night.
Camping is becoming more and more popular in North America. One reason is that travellers can now get more information about camping online. More people feel that they are prepared enough to try it themselves. As many as 18 million households in the US and Canada go camping three or more times a year. To enjoy camping, one doesn't have to travel far. Fifty-nine percent of campers in the United States and Canada stay within 160 kilometers of their home, Forbes reported.
So a short camping will be fun!
