Dan Goes Hiking's video: My Camping Pillow Journey - from Crappy to Comfy

I've had such a love-hate relationship over the years with camping pillows. While I consider them to be a necessity to get a good night's sleep while backpacking, finding the "right" camping pillow has proved challenging. Follow along as I discuss my camping pillow journey in search of the "perfect" pillow (or, at least, perfect for me). I mentioned the YouTube channel, Schill Brothers Outdoors, in this video.

If you haven't already guessed, my name is Dan. I was bit by the backpacking bug in 2014 and since then haven't gone one day without thinking about my next adventure. I'm from Chicago, a great city but...not so much known for its bountiful backpacking opportunities. Nevertheless, I haven't let that stop me from enjoying the outdoors. Hope my videos leave you with one or two takeaways, or even better, inspire you to head out on the trail. Thanks for watching! Have fun out there! - Dan
