Aside from all the above..
being in touch with your surroundings. e.g. when you are camping you notice whether the sky is clear and starry, whether it's a full moon, what time the sun goes down and how dark it is, when it comes up and first touches your tent in the morning.
The temperature, the wind and of course whether there might be any chance of rain.
Many of these things don't matter and go unnoticed from the comfort and security of your home. Camping brings you closer to nature.
