Champing was such an unusual and beautiful experience! Coming from a catholic country (we’re from Italy), allowing people to sleep in the very heart of churches (we did it in the choir) may sound a bit… destabilizing! On the contrary, we found a very welcoming place: I was expecting an icy and damp church, but we found a dry and warm one; everything looked prepared (kettle and tea and coffee facilities, sleeping bags and pillows, electric candles) with love and was spotlessly clean. Waking up in the morning with the sunlight coming through stained glass had no equal! I think there’s a way to enjoy the stay for anyone: for who’s looking for quiet, for a place for thinking, for a sort of religious approach or for simply sharing an out-of-beaten-track experience. As a suggestion, I may add to try to arrive at the church with still some daylight, since entering in darkness may be a bit scaring indeed! Thank you warmly for this opportunity I hope to have again in the future.
