Their story, in their words….
First of all, we would like to thank you greatly for the opportunity we were provided with to be able to face a challenge while also enjoying ourselves. Our team went hiking in the South Downs for 3 days and during that our map, problem solving, mental, physical, friendship skills were all tested to their boundaries.
The trip turned out to be more of a challenge than we initially thought but also came with a greater satisfaction when we officially completed it allowing us to be very proud of ourselves. What we found difficult was the actual hiking part as the bags were quite heavy and had to walk long distances; however we managed to keep the morale up by playing music and taking sufficient breaks. Apart from that everything else went smoothly and as planned meaning the planning was very good and sufficient. In addition, what we found enjoyable was the stars at night where we were able to see how amazing the sky is at night and being able to witness several shooting stars.
Overall, we feel very happy and grateful to be able to have experienced such a privilege. It was a big opportunity for us to take a break from a daily dynamic life in London and indulge more with nature. It also allowed us to challenge ourselves differently and complete something that normally wouldn’t happen.
