Solo Camping for Two episode 1 recap

The first episode of Solo Camping for Two brings us the character of Gen Konokura, a 34-year-old male who discovers serenity and peace in solo camping. For Gen, solo camping is not a reflection of loneliness but a life of luxury from the endless noise and stress of daily living. He spends hours on the train and another hour on the bus to arrive at the destination this time: the peaceful Iwatani Bay hidden deep inside the mountains.
Upon his arrival, Gen quickly establishes his camp, enjoying the independence of doing everything on his own, from selecting a flawless riverbank site to setting up his tent and collecting dry sticks for a campfire.
He takes great care in determining the direction of the wind before igniting his tiny campfire, showing his great thoughtfulness and expertise. Even being an experienced camper, Gen pauses momentarily when he first tries using his new fire starter but is able to eventually achieve a warm, satisfying flame. Alone by the campfire, he enjoys the comfort and ease of solitude.

After a short walk in nature, when Gen returns to his camp, he is surprised to see a young woman sitting beside his tent. She introduces herself as Shizuku Kusano. She mentions that she had also booked the same spot for solo camping. However, since she is new to the adventure, she lost her way.
Gen, who is there to escape from people to enjoy nature, advises her to look for another place to stay. But Shizuku clarifies that it is too late now. She also mentions that the manager's office is already closed down, and no buses are running anymore.
When he comes back, he finds Shizuku preparing dinner. While Gen at first resists her presence and asserts he never invited her to stay, seeing and smelling the food stirs an old repressed interest in shared camp cooking. Even though Gen tells her that he doesn't want to eat, Shizuku happily offers him a try. Surprisingly, Gen likes the dish a lot, which makes his heart melt.

Later in the episode, Shizuku reveals why she wanted to attempt solo camping. She confesses that she always wanted to give camping a try but failed to gather like-minded friends, so she opted for solo camping.
Gen treats her kindly by informing her that solo camping takes preparation and preparedness—qualities she appears not to possess. However, Shizuku proclaims that since she is naive about solo camping, he can teach her. She then proposes the idea of solo camping for two. Gen refuses the idea and calls it ridiculous.
As night becomes chillier, Gen allows Shizuku to sleep in the tent while he stays outside near the extinguished fire, shivering all night. Shizuku discovers him cold and fatigued in the morning. Grateful, she prepares him a warm clam tomato risotto with convenience store food, which Gen secretly consumes despite pretending otherwise.

Shizuku jokingly confesses that she packed a lot of food but no proper camping equipment, laughing at her lack of experience. She thanks Gen for allowing her to feel the peaceful scenery surrounding them.
When the sun comes up, Gen informs her that she can finally return home. But Shizuku surprises him by demanding they share the same bus and that they should once attempt camping together. Despite Gen's objections, persistence eventually gets the better of him.
What to expect in Solo Camping for Two episode 2? (speculative)

Since the last episode was mainly about the introduction of the main characters and how they meet, the upcoming Solo Camping for Two episode 2 will start the first adventure of Gen and Shizuku together as solo campers.
The episode is expected to be packed with comedy, drama, and a lot of solo camping tips from Gen and delicious foods from Shizuku.
