The "WHY" of Present Day Nomad

Hello everyone! It's your Chief Nomad here.  

At Present Day Nomad, we believe that there is simply no better way, no better place, and no better method to get connected, physically, mentally, and spiritually recharged than back out to nature. 

Too often, we use the excuse, "We are so busy..." to get back outside and back into nature. Well, the truth is, its not that we are too busy.

We simply don't prioritize it.

Many of us look at a camping trip or outdoor adventure as exactly that...a trip. A hassle. A burden that is going to draw a lot of energy and a lot of coin. Something that we need to plan for, research, pay loads of money for amenities...all of that.

But it doesn't have to be like that.

In fact, it shouldn't be like that.

No one wants a vacation from the vacation.

So we look to take the excuses out of it. With Present Day Nomad, we do our best to provide tools and resources to help make it easier to plan your outdoor adventures so that you can concentrate on the fun. We will give you some great family ideas, tips, and tricks - simple ones - that will take the burden off of you and your wallet. We will even provide you with some bushcraft and survival techniques to train your whole family. And of course, we will provide you with the products you need to make these adventures as memorable as possible.

Outdoor adventures can be had every season of the year. Even in deep winter (you can check out our list of 12 outdoor activities to do that aren't skiing here. We really love the hot chocolate picnic!).

Or, check out our Ultimate Guide to Packing Your Backpack. This is the post that shows you the art (and science) to packing your backpack. This one will help you to make those great hikes easier on your shoulders, back, knees, and legs.  

Even better, jump to this post and download our family camping gear checklist. Refer a friend by using their email, and you'll not only get the checklist, but a 10% discount code for anywhere on the website!

Let's, make 2025 the year where we all get out and create memories. And I hope that you would make Present Day Nomad your first stop for your outdoor family fun. 

You supply the adventure, we supply the gear!

See you outside!

Chief
