In an increasingly fast-paced and complex world, it's vital to remember how humanity spent most of its existence: connected with and within nature.

Reconnecting with nature is not just natural, but also beneficial for health. Spending time in more natural environments is essential. That's why building a DIY camper, in my view, is a remarkably healthy hobby. It enables swift getaways to nearby forests or parks without the need for extensive planning or expensive flights. Everything you need is right in your camper. Just turn the key, and you're on your way to a well-deserved rest, not far from home.

My Recommendation:

Forget the hassle of long flights and detailed holiday planning. Finished work at 17:00? Why not take a small detour on your way home? Park for a while by a lake, enjoy a chapter of your book with the windows down, and listen to the local birds. It’s remarkable when a vehicle, a mere tool for transport, transforms into your personal escape. To emphasize the importance of spending time in nature, consider this significant 2016 study (click to see study). It shows that spending just 30 minutes a week in a park – not even every day – can help nearly 10% of people with high blood pressure regulate it to healthier levels. This demonstrates our inherent need to be surrounded by nature.
