return to home-back to civilization
Paying S$250 for a 5 day torture camp isn't very smart of me, that i know. however, the fun, laughter and memories of which i bring home makes it all worthwhile. Abandoning the luxurious life to live in the wilderness, and containing the fear of anonymous creatures lurking around the corner is simply non-imaginable. Unless you've tried it yourself. here i am back from the threatening nature and back to civilization where i once again, can blog, and allow my audiences to savour my experience, together.
