Hi all, I'm a second-year Product Design student working on a project to develop a product that improves the wild camping experience. I'm trying to get some genuine insight from people who actually do it regularly rather than just guessing.
I'm looking for anyone willing to have a short informal chat (call, voice note, or even just typed responses if that's easier) covering things like:
- How you plan and prepare for a trip
- What gear you consider non-negotiable
- Any moments where you've felt unsafe or underprepared
- What you wish existed that doesn't
No experience level required — whether you're a weekend warrior or you've done multi-day solo trips, your perspective is useful.
Drop a comment or DM me if you're up for it. Really appreciate any help.
