21 Urbanite Long Weekend Essentials

From Comfortable Camping Couches to Luxury Camping Coffee-Ware

— May 13, 2013 — Eco
Any city-goer who plans to immerse themselves in the wilderness this long weekend needs to prepare themselves carefully to ensure the transition from their cozy city apartment to a cottage in the forest is a pleasant one.

With May's long weekend just around the corner, many urbanites will be escaping the city to confide in camping parks and cottages alike for some well-deserved R&R, but this can be a tricky transition when metropolitans are use to the convenience of disposable running tap water, comfy beds, bathrooms and fully-functional kitchens. Here's a great list of long weekend essentials for any urbanite to easily transition from their favorite city comforts to the wild. From countryside-approved expresso makers to convenient outdoor bathroom kits, these urbanite long weekend essentials will help any city sleeker feel at home in the great outdoors.
