How to Stay Healthy on an Overnight Trip

How to Stay Healthy on an Overnight Camping Trip

Introduction

Camping with the family is always a brilliant time. We try and get out to a campsite at least once a year for a week or so and just lose ourselves in nature. We used to take a big tent that we would all sleep in but my husband bought us an RV from Halterman’s RV a few years back and we’ve not looked back!

So, when it comes the time of year where we can take the RV Covers off and finally hit the road, we want to make sure we keep healthy throughout our trip and don’t resort to any unhygienic bad habits! A healthy overnight camping trip isn’t the easiest thing to pull off. This is especially the case when you’re in with your children and you’re wondering what it will take for things to go smoothly.

Luckily, there are a number of do-it-yourself tricks that will make it easier for you and your family to enjoy your next camping trip out in the woods.

Three Healthy Tips

There are dozens of tips out there that you can utilize in order to make your camping trip an experience to remember.

However, in this article, we are going to focus on the three specific healthy tips from Outdoorsy.co that deal with staying healthy when you’re on an overnight camping trip.

Towelrod Bathroom Organizer

Keeping your toiletries neatly organized on the road can be tricky and this is even more so the case when you’re in an RV camper or trailer. It would definitely be worth taking a look through some RV consumer guides to find out more about other peoples experiences and tips to help you get started!

However, if you’re looking to keep your shampoos, gels, and soaps organized for you and your family, you should consider purchasing a towel-rod bathroom organizer.

Your different items will be kept orderly and in place, and the towel rod can be installed on the bathroom counter or on the wall near the bathtub.

Command Hooks

Whether its’ for your clothes, your kitchen supplies, or for your electrical cords, having a supply of command hooks will help you keep your RV camper safe and orderly for the duration of your trip. If you don’t already have a functioning RV Battery, you certainly need to get one. You really don’t want to be stuck in the cold with no power. If you don’t know what to look for from an RV battery, this top 10 best list will help you decide which is the best for you!

Command hooks are multi-purpose items and can really come in handy when you’re on the road.

If you want to do things like keep your clothes dry, make sure your children are out of reach from electrical cords, or have easy access to aluminum foil, you may want to invest in a command hook before the next camping trip.

Shower Lines

Lastly, if you do not have the luxury of having a place to put your toiletries on a counter or shelf, you may want to consider buying a shower line.

A shower line is effective in holding multiple small bottles of soap, body wash, shampoo, and other toiletries together by being hooked to a lanyard, which you can put over the shower head to have it hang there for you and your family to use.

While not the most convenient solution, if you don’t have much space in the RV camper and you still want easy access to wash your hair and clean your body, getting a shower line could be your best bet.

If you’re not sure where to find shower lines to buy, you can easily purchase them from Amazon.com. Here’s the link to one of the most popular brands: ShowerLine Shower Caddy

Conclusion

Whether you’re camping for just one night or for the whole week, these three tips will help you to stay fresh and healthy during your next adventure.

1byone Outdoor Sport & Shower Speaker Review

1byone Outdoor Sport & Shower Speaker Review

review

outside speaker1byone makes top of the line electronics for everyday people. Everyone I know loves music. I mean how can you not? Everyone has their genres, bands and melodies that resonate in their soul. In my house we constantly have music playing. We love to listen to the best playlists from sites like Mozaart.com. Its always in the background. In the summertime, my kids and I are outside most of the day. Last year we missed the music we love to listen to. I would try to have it come out of my cell phone but being knee-deep in their pool, working in the garden or by their water table – it was never a cell phone or electronic friendly environment. On top of that, we love going on walks and hikes in the summer and it was always hard to get the music loud enough where everyone could hear it. We went hiking with our friends and they had the soundboks 2 speaker which was just amazing. The sound quality was so clear that I needed to find a speaker like that but was a little smaller and more easily portable. This is what has spawned the emerging trend of devices designed for use in the great outdoors like the outdoor empire radios.

This summer and for now on, I am so excited to have a 1byone Outdoor Sport & Shower Speaker. There are a TON of speakers on the market. I see them online and in stores all the time. But what makes a speaker stand out? What makes you want to buy a particular one? Here are a few reasons why this 1byone speaker is the choice for you.

You Can Use it By Water

This speaker is waterproof and can be used in showers or by bathtubs and pools. Having electronic by water can be a scarey thing. I am constantly scared of electric shock. You should NEVER submerge an electronic in water. However, there are products that can survive some splashing and water condensation – the 1byone Outdoor Speaker is one of them. This speaker can be placed by a shower, tub or pool and can handle some splashing. No more fear of destruction of the device when your kids splash around like you know they are going to do. Looking to lounge in your tub and unwind to some soothing tunes? Planning a romantic getaway with your significant other? Going to the pool this summer? All these situations which you will inevitably incur, you will want a 1byone Speaker.

You Can Use it in Dusty Areas

Do you or someone you know work in a dirty/dusty environment? Construction, warehouses, factories? All these places have dust and other materials flying around. All those foreign objects can harm your technology, including your music speaker. Now you can use a 1byone speaker. No worries about it dying due to exposure to dust.

Smartphone to Bluetooth Capableby a hotub

This 1byone Speaker can hold music that you load onto a TF slot card or can play music off a Smart device using Bluetooth. Most the time I am listening to Pandora or I Heart Radio. Now I can stream my music stations from my phone to the Speaker. This makes it easy to use and gives me to variety and kinds of music I want to hear. If you are going camping and know that you will not have access to cell phone signal you can easily store music to the speaker itself with the TF card slot.

The Bluetooth capabilities makes this great for walks through a forest, or around the park. Take it on picnics, family vacations or to the gym. In fact, this speaker is the perfect size to take to the gym in your tracksuit pocket, meaning you don’t have to worry about storage. The speaker has been trialled by holding it in the gym throughout a workout in womens tracksuits and it proved light, loud and to have a strong battery!

It’s Small and Easy to Store

No one needs large and bulky items to store and carry around. This 1byone Speaker is easy to carry and store! It’s lightweight making it not a burden when its in your purse, diaper bag, camping bag, luggage or in your hall closet. If you are a minimalist, then this is the speaker for you

Long Battery Life

The 1byone Outdoor Speaker can hold up to 7 hours of uninterrupted sound before you need to recharge. The 1400 mAh battery is easy to recharge and holds the perfect amount of playtime you need. You can also keep it plugged in and use it while it charges if you choose it.
