Coachella camping ⛺️

Transcript

It's day zero of Coachella, so let's set up my campsite. I got here at 04:30 in the morning expecting a crazy line, but it wasn't that bad. I will say security is not playing games. They were flipping bags inside out. And this year, I wasn't playing games either. I got two camp spots. We went from a studio to a one better, and we have a convertible sofa bed, a rug, and a wooden dining table. What can I say? I'm just an interior designer in the Coachella Better. This is my fourth year camping at Coachella, and it's honestly one of my favorite things to to do. I feel like I've nailed my setup to perfection. And most of these things I already have at home, which makes things better. The forecast says it might rain this weekend, which could actually be insane for us campers. So somebody please pay an Etsy witch to make sure that doesn't happen. This sofa bed is the way to go. You have so much room during the day and a bed to sleep at at night. I'm so hyped up for b brachella. There's gonna be so many good artists that I wanna see this weekend. Also, some pretty good parties too. Some of you guys have already spotted me and said hi. I think my better might have given it away. I am not looking forward to the porta potties this year, but there's something special about camping at Coachella that makes it all worth it. At night, it gets super dark out tier, so I brought extra battery powered lighting this year. I got tired of using my iPhone flashlight. I also got this ceiling rank, which is actually so cool. You guys know I love curtain draping, so why not bring some to the desert? Just be happy I didn't install my bed canopy out here. I'm seriously so excited for this weekend. It's gonna be so much fun. Let me know what you guys wanna see more of, and I'll check-in with you guys tomorrow morning.
