About Who We Are We’re April and Wally Stocks, two adventurers who met, fell in love, and got hitched… all thanks to the great outdoors! Turns out, sharing a love for crackling campfires and exploring hidden trails was the secret sauce to our happily ever after. For years, we dreamed of doing something together, something that combined our passions and let us share our camping knowledge with the world. So, here we are, launching this blog, fueled by our love for the wilderness and each other! April Stocks An experienced educator and passionate writer, April brings her expertise to Best Camping Pro as the blog’s resident wordsmith. By day, she ignites young minds in the classroom, while her evenings are dedicated to sharing her love for camping through informative articles. April enjoys exploring the outdoors with her husband, Wally, and their close circle, and weaves these experiences into valuable tips for fellow adventurers. Wally Stocks Wally leverages his artistic talent and passion for the outdoors to create engaging illustrations for Best Camping Pro. A dedicated husband and adventurer, he finds inspiration for his work in the shared experiences of exploring nature with his wife, April, and their loved ones. When not illustrating, Wally can often be found under the stars, sketching the very landscapes he brings to life on the page. What We Do Think of us as your friendly neighborhood camping guides. We’ve been there, pitched the tent under a million stars, battled the occasional mosquito army (don’t worry, we’ll share our battle tactics) and learned a thing or ten along the way. Together, we’ll be sharing: Camping tips: Learn how to build the perfect campfire, pack like a pro, and navigate like a seasoned explorer. Gear reviews: Wondering if that fancy new tent is worth the splurge? We’ll put the latest gear to the test and give you the lowdown. Destination recommendations: From hidden gems to classic campsites, we’ll guide you to the perfect spot for your next outdoor adventure. So, grab your backpack, dust off your sleeping bag, and join us on this camping journey! We’re excited to share our love for the outdoors and help you create memories that will last a lifetime.
