Camping

In the Outdoors, you want to be able to sleep soundly and this means first getting away from the elements that would keep you distracted from sleep. Since, obviously, the only roof over your head would be the great night sky, or tree branches, you have to make a shelter for yourself, and this can either be something you brought on the trip, say a tent and a sleeping bag, or if you’re a real wild and crazy explorer, making shelter using your natural surroundings. With the right cutting tool, you can take down tree branches and put them together just so, to create a small shelter. You then can take leaves and grass, making sure that the underbrush isn’t poisonous, to put on the ground under the makeshift shelter, to pad the ground in order for a more comfortable place to lay down or sleep. Now depending on what type of weather you are having, if it is raining or cold, or both, then you might have a harder time getting comfortable with a home-made nature bed. But in a time of need, say lost or stranded, a makeshift shelter and floor matt could be just the thing that buys you some time before help arrives.
