Jungle Trekking in Jasan Highlands - Tears of The Sun

Early in the morning all of us wake up around 7am in the morning. If you want to know one secret, most of us did not bath.. well it wasn't on purpose but since we gonna have a jungle tracking and some "army training" later on, most of us decide to just wash our face and brush our teeth. By the way.. the water was really cold!

 

We started our day with some warm-up exercise before we headed to the jungle trekking activity. Warming up is really important to avoid any injury. So, make sure any of you who want to do any activity, at least have some light exercise to warm up ya. Stay healthy...

 

We started our journey by going down the hill. Somehow I prefer that we climb at first place instead of walking down the hill. I prefer to do the difficult thing first instead of the easy things. Since we gonna feel tired afterwards.

 

This jungle trekking is basically to teach us about enjoying our environment and at the same time to treasure it. Ask yourself when is the last time you go to a jungle? For me, most of my time I spend in city.

Some of the unique jungle creatures. Somehow, this is my first time I see with my own eyes + touch the mosses

 

Once we get out from the jungle, everyone checked their body if they have any leeches. The moment Bella open her socks, there have plenty of leeches.. haha... Basically, Leeches are segmented worms and their bodies are much more solid. For those how do not know, they also have two suckers, with each sucker located at the end of each animal.
