Question

What is Glamping?

Answer

High Class Bougie Glamorous Camping - essentially it’s a way to experience nature and the great outdoors without giving up all of the amenities that civilized nations have enjoyed for centuries. You get to “camp” while sleeping on a king sized bed, in AC conditions with running water & a full kitchen. Once you go Glamping, you may never go Camping again, haha
