Hi, I’m Emily
I grew up exploring the great outdoors with my childhood friend Rick, camping in the beautiful Oklahoma hills. After a few years away from nature, I found my way back during a camping trip to Robber’s Cave. That moment of rediscovery lit up a new passion for sharing my journey and helping others connect with nature. Now, I’m proud to be contributing to GlampingorCamping.com, where I can share my experiences and offer advice to help others find peace, adventure, and healing through camping.
