Your guide for the summer, our 5 100% natural adventure tips! ✌🍂
Hello, sun worshippers and explorers! Pack your rucksacks, hiking boots and, above all, your spirit of adventure. Here are the 5 lesser-known summer tips we have selected for you to turn your holiday into an unforgettable experience.
1. Protect yourself from the sun with ingenuity
The sun can be merciless in summer. To avoid sunburn, you should think of natural and effective tricks. Use pure aloe vera to soothe the skin after prolonged exposure to the sun. For natural protection, mix coconut oil with shea butter and a few drops of lavender essential oil to make your own sunscreen.
2. Stay hydrated with natural solutions
Hydration is crucial on summer adventures. Always carry a reusable water bottle filled with water and add lemon slices or mint leaves for a refreshing drink. Water-rich fruits such as watermelon, cucumber and oranges are also great for keeping you hydrated.
3. Use a compass like a pro
Using a compass to orientate yourself may seem archaic, but it is a valuable skill. Align your map by placing the compass on the map, align the north of the map with the north of the compass and then find your direction. For accurate navigation, learn to recognise natural landmarks such as mountains and rivers.
4. Create an improvised shelter in nature
Sometimes weather conditions can change quickly. Learn how to build a makeshift shelter using a tarp or poncho and some ropes. Use the trees to secure your shelter and make sure it is tightly stretched to protect you from rain or sun.
5. Keep your supplies fresh
To prevent your food from spoiling on your adventures, use natural preservation techniques. Wrap your supplies in vine or banana leaves to keep them cooler for longer. Take cooler bags with you and add homemade ice blocks by freezing water bottles.
