My job is conservation work like trail maintenance, and I've been outdoors all of my life. To answer your questions, I like to make a log cabin with the wood starting thicker and going thinner to the top and then filling it with easy burning fuel like lint or dry moss, then once those are going put more pencil sized sticks on the top so that there's fuel every direction. Site optimization is pretty preferential but I like to put the kitchen right in the middle, my tent not far but a good distance from the kitchen so wildlife doesn't go near me and then a latrine on the opposite side of the kitchen but when I go solo there's much less organisation than at work. Proper sleeping bag care is a little easier, only put them in the compression sacks when you're packing them to camp because extended compression isn't good for the sleeping bag, also clean them often because when they get dirty they lose insulative properties, aside from that I don't have anything to add. Enjoy your hikes!
