Is there a better way to relax than a trip to the desert? The fresh air, wild landscape and cozy campfires are some of the reasons younger generations are now reliving this favorite pastime. But, forget practicality and take a leaf from the new generation’s book to modernize and revamp your next camping trip or Kashta outing this winter. So, take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, and follow this quick and easy guide for the perfect desert trip using JYSK accessories and furniture.

#1: Location, Location, Location
First thing’s first, what’s the ideal backdrop for your Kashta? Is it a scenic desert escape or a sandy beach? Whatever you decide on, remember to plan ahead! Make a list and scout out locations to fit your needs, and make sure you’re nowhere near ant farms, desert holes (where critters and snakes can be lurking) and noisy highways. Then, for the best pictures, get to your chosen location before sunset to hit golden hour and make sure your Kashta setup is perfect for your photo. Don’t forget to clean up before you go!

#2: Staying for the night?
So, you’ve decided on your perfect location, time to think about your perfect tent. From sturdy desert tents to waterproof beach ones, ask the advice of our Kashta experts in deciding what’s best for your needs.
Only taking a day trip? Then, a simple tepee or umbrella should do the trick (pssst!. JYSK experts can help with that too).

Lighting, seats, and rugs, oh my!
The basic necessities of any Kashta are cozy seating, rugs and festive lightings to make this experience truly a home away from home. Starting with the rug, we recommend bamboo or straw rugs for practicality’s sake and its natural design. Add more warmth to it by incorporating floor pillows and warm blankets. Sitting on the ground is not your thing? JYSK has a variety of foldaway lightweight, portable chairs and tables that are easy to assemble and aesthetically pleasing, or if you’re looking to get extra cozy, sink yourself in one of our comfy bean bags. To really take your Kashta to the next level, JYSK has a variety of lounge sets and furniture that’ll easily fit in the back of your truck and make your Kasha truly stand out.

A quick nap or a night under the stars
Whether you’re there for a day or three, sleeping equipment is an often-overlooked necessity when it comes to Kashta setups. Bring your favorite sleeping bag and JYSK blankets and pillows to bring next-level comfort. Don’t forget to bundle up with your bisht!

The finishing touches
What takes your Kashta from just a camp in the desert to the perfect escape are the accessories. From candles to pillows, incorporating them into your Kashta setup will add warmth and comfort to your desert escape. And if the light from the firepit is not enough, JYSK has battery operated fairy lights to make your experience in the desert all that more magical.

Don’t forget the food!
Although this isn’t a guide on the perfect Kashta menu, this will help you pick what it’s served on. The cop-out option is to use disposable cups and plates, but that will take away from the glam of the whole set-up (and sucks for the environment). Instead, JYSK has many easy to transport cutlery and plates to fit any vibe so that you can serve your menu on dishes fit for a king (or a queen).
Whatever your setup vibe, this guide (and JYSK) has you covered. Follow these tips and tricks to make your desert escape a night to remember.
