472 Richard Hill ~ Adventures in Stealth Camping

I'm excited to introduce this week's guest, Richard Hill, otherwise known as Day Tripper. I first discovered him earlier this year when I was looking for videos on the Coast to Coast. From there, I started watching his other videos about his outdoor adventures.

I was particularly interested in his videos on stealth camping. This is a type of wild camping that’s commonly done in more urban or semi-urban environments, where the aim is to go unnoticed. I’ve been wanting to try this for myself, so I thought I’d get more tips from an expert before getting started.

There’s some great advice about stealth camping in this episode, and I hope it inspires you to give it a try. 

 

About Richard Hill

Richard has a busy stressful job managing properties on Regent Street and found he needed to find time out each week to recharge his batteries. So just over 2 years ago Day Tripper was born where he heads out for an outdoor mini adventure every week. Sometimes it’s hiking part of a long-distance footpath, other times it’s wild camping or stealth camping for the night in his local area or further afield.

He likes to challenge himself to do new things and recently completed the 190-mile Coast to Coast hike which included camping in some very unusual camping locations in bad weather. Richard posts his adventures on U Tube to hopefully encourage others to venture out more into the great outdoors and become Day Trippers, and explore all the benefits it offers.
