My Personal Experience Of What I Gain from My Camping Trip Camping is a popular activity among adult. Most of us choose forests, waterfalls and hills as campsites. This is a healthy way to spend our free time. Every year, Adventure Club will conduct activity where the place has a natural environment. Our Club decided to choose forest as our camping trip which is located at Tawau Hills Park. It is two days trip at the forest. Tawau Hills Park is 24 Kilometre away from Tawau Town. The objective of Adventure Club conduct this activity at the forest is to exploring the park. There are fifty people who join this camping trip. We already prepare our camping equipment such as tent, food, sleeping bag and many more. We reached Tawau Hills Park at 10am by riding bus. When we reach at the camp site, we find a flat place to build a tent which is very safe for our group member. I loved the campsite because the views and the facilities on the camp site was very good .The toilet very clean .Then, all of us need to assembly to hear instruction from our guider. It is important to take notes of what the guider says which we do’s and don’ts when exploring the forest. It is to make sure our safety and avoid from accident at the place. All of us always need to be in group and we also get know each other. Each of us has a responsibility to do. Gathering at the fire wood and making the campfire is my favourite part. After the campfire was built, we cooked up some chicken over the fire. We do all work in cooperation with group member such as cooking, cleaning and washing dishes. That night we do some performance such as singing around the campfire. This is to boost up our confident level. We sing all together, getting closed and new friendship was begin.
Tomorrow morning was the best experience for us. We trails to Sulphur Springs and Bukit Gelas Waterfall. The trail took two hour walking. Along the journey , we took a photo of nature environment. We see many giants commercial timbers, exotic and wild plants, orchid, and wildlife. Some trees have huge buttress roots. It give me feels relaxing with the fresh air. I was told by the guider if we lost at the forest, just hit the buttress with a wood and the rescue can hear one kilometre away. This more effective than shouting for help. After a long journey , finally we reach at the waterfalls. We go swimming at the river and luckily we see the elephant at the waterfall. After we exploring, we going back to the campsite and cleaning the rubbish and packing to going back. We also took a group photo for our memories. The trip was the great experience for me and I feel lucky because when we camping, the weather is good. It feels me get out from stressful. The camping trip gives me many things other than camping skills. It taught me to build new friendship, cooperation in group member, relaxing and appreciate the mother of nature. It is one of the unforgettable memory for us. I hope Adventure Club will conduct the best activity and I hope the next trip will climbing a Mount Kinabalu at Kundasang.
