<\/span><\/h2>\nIf you aren\u2019t going to an established site, forgoing it for a more secluded spot, you open yourself up to more natural hazards. You need to exercise extreme caution so that you can enjoy yourself instead of ending up in the emergency room. There are no \u201cglospitals\u201d yet, unfortunately. Follow these tips and cast off your worries:<\/p>\n
\n- Never, ever go hiking when there is no marked trail.<\/strong> There\u2019s a reason the trails aren\u2019t beaten and worn from other hikers\u2019 feet. You will likely get lost, and there\u2019s no telling what you may encounter. Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!<\/li>\n
- Keep your food stored in airtight containers.<\/strong> Find some adorable little Tupperware bowls and leave your leftovers in them. Wild animals are attracted to just about any food. Go ahead and use your camping kitchen to whip up something nice, but never leave it out. Aside from dangerous predators, flies might walk with all over your meal with their grubby little legs. That is unsanitary and definitely not glamorous.<\/li>\n
- Stay out of flood zones.<\/strong> Your dreamy little yurt can get swept away during a storm on low ground and turn your trip into a nightmare. You\u2019d be stranded with no shelter!<\/li>\n
- Close up your tent before bedding down.<\/strong> Snakes and other creepy creatures could be interested in what you\u2019ve got going on and want to join the party. These animals may mean no harm, but if you get scared and they get scared, someone is going to get hurt.<\/li>\n
- Be mindful of your fires.<\/strong> Do not leave your firepit unattended. Take Smokey the Bear\u2019s words seriously: only you can prevent forest fires!<\/li>\n
- Plan ahead of time for emergencies. <\/strong>Call people and let them know where you\u2019re setting up camp (in this case, glamp) so that if you go missing, they know where to look. Pack a standard first aid kit. We want everything to go smoothly, and that can only happen if you put in some effort before relaxing.<\/li>\n
- Check weather forecasts.<\/strong> Try and plan out your vacation when the chances of thunderstorms are low.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Combine your tips with common sense, and you shouldn\u2019t have to worry! Sit back and relax in the plush chair you brought along with a nice book and some tea.<\/p>\n
<\/span>I dont want to build a campsite on my own; where are the established glampsites?<\/span><\/h2>\nYou can still go glamping without trying to set up all of your gear; that is because established \u201cglampsites\u201d are popping up all over the world! Each site is unique, and not all are just in tents on the ground. You will likely spend more money per night to book a place, but if money isn\u2019t an issue, here are some of the coolest glamping spots around the globe:<\/p>\n
\n- The most luxurious, classy glamping experience comes from Mirano, Italy!<\/strong> Inside of the spacious tents, you\u2019ll find elegant four-poster beds and crystal dinnerware. You can also take a nice soak in a private tub. What DIY glampsite offers that? WiFi is available on-site for all of the tech-savvy campers out there. That\u2019s not all, though. If you aren\u2019t sold on the material things alone, wait until you hear this one! Venice, one of the cultural hubs of the country, is only 20 minutes away by train. It\u2019ll cost you about $580 for 3 nights.<\/li>\n
- You can glamp in a treehouse in Monterey Bay, California!<\/strong> It is pet-friendly, can house up to 4 people, and it\u2019s furnished with a kitchen and a fridge. No need to forage for food here. After dinner, take a dip in the jacuzzi with some friends or a lover! All said and done, the next available dates will cost about $240 per night.<\/li>\n
- Book a tipi in Tasmania, Australia! <\/strong>Included in the amenities are a bathtub, cell service, and actual toilets. If you\u2019ve always wanted to explore Down Under, now you can for only $70 per night! Leave your pets at home for this one, though.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
