stop beating yourself up.

We all make different choices about how to live our lives, and fortunately we are not all the same. Find what makes YOU happy and live that life. No apologies.

That said, camping is awesome. But, there are risks associated with going alone, so take appropriate precautions.

Have fun! Sounds very cool.
