I like it now that I live in a town. It was scary in the country and in the city.

I love sleeping outside whether in a tent or just under the stars. There's something about being outside that is wonderful and entrancing; the lack of electricity and modern convienences really allows me to get closer to God.

I have a friend who tried to tell me the same thing. But the only place where I get closer to God is in a synagogue, with comfortable chairs, lighting (both functional and ambient), and climate control. Praying in nature never appealed to me, and never will.

I do this too! I love lurking in the dark late at night. I think it's fun whenever there's someone else out and they see me, I try to scare them into going faster. I'm not a mugger, I just think it's funny to see the people get nervous.

Yes, I love it. I'm an Alaskan. I sometimes walk in the woods in the dark. Moose and porcupine are (partly) nocturnal and gentle, sweet creatures. My senses are strong at night - I navigate.

Muwahahah - the children of the night!

It's my favourite time. The black silence of the sky; you can almost drink it in and feel it on your tongue. The momentary glitter of a cat looking at you from a wall.

The mind unfolds itself after cowering from the sun and day. Thoughts have room to breathe. Endless empty streets to walk through. And there's no nightlife like the nightlife in a forest, tinted by moonlight, all the creatures of folklore crowding the trees and bushes and undergrowth.

Just buy me a cape and call me "Count"!

I love to walk at night into the city when the streets are quiet.

When I was a child one of my strongest memories is being in the back seat of my parents car looking up into the night, it was so beautiful, mesmerizing... the feeling has never left me.

There are great perks to walking at night too, less people walking around saying hello. I am not fond of making eye contact with other walkers. I usually switch to the other side of the street to avoid it.

It's scary how many things we all have in common.

Night Time > Day Time

It's true...

I love to go outside at night except the problem is I live in a middle of a concrete jungle and it is very rough and there are pubs either side of me people get attacked outside my place I have seen a couple out my window before I occasionally go out at night but I'd rather have a car.

I like to go outside in the yard at night sometimes whenever I'm sleepless.

Indeed, i love camping. I almost, while going to collage in the adirondacks, wanted to get to the summet of 1 of the mountains all by myself and camp out up their. the things that stopped me were that The whole summet is rock, very uncofortable to sleep with, u cant have a fire as banned by the DEC for obvious reasons up their, and i feared, dispite having excellent gortech EMS cloths, the wind would be too strong and the cold air would prevent me from having a good night sleep to make it back.

I lived in the country for a long time and always loved going for walks in the neghboorhood, checkin out the sky was best up north also, u can very clearly see the edge of our galexie, adirondacks is 1 of the least light polluted areas in the US.

I have walked around the streets at night on numerous occasions, even though I am not allowed to.
I just like the feeling of walking into a park or reserve, sitting underneath a tree and imagining that I am the only human being on the planet. Or course, I have to be away from houses, just so it seems real.

Sometimes, I will just walk aimlessely around the streets at night. I don't know where I want to go, or what I want, but I will feel so calm.
