To prepare for a trip to the countryside, consider these tips.

It's often cold at night, so you have to take warm clothes like a hoodie, not just T-shirts and shorts. Take boots too because it sometimes rains. You should also learn how to put up your tent before you go.

There are lots of mosquitoes in the countryside on summer nights, so you should take a net. Then you don't have to worry about bites. You should also take a torch as it is usually dark on campsites at night.

Remember to bring money to buy souvenirs or snacks and sandwiches, because you shouldn't be hungry when you walk a lot. A camera is also useful to take photos of birds, trees, and your friends.
