Completed 0.5 peak out of 3 peaks challenge

This is my first time camping in UK (Yorkshire Dale). Thanks SJ for tagging me along :p

A night before. Simple barbecue. Single use disposal barbecue tray. First time seeing it though. Thanks to SW for bringing it :)


Horrible face!


Our tents


I find this tent is quite interesting!


First stop, having my ‘brunch’ in Pen-y-Ghent café, ‘a pint mug’ coffee, 2 croissants and a book with me.


Start having fun by taking pictures of myself by setting the self timer of my camera.


My camping equipment. A Tesco plastic bag with 2 croissants, 500ml water, a broly, and a book. In fact, an old man keeps calling me the girl with a tesco plastic bag :S

I was on the way hiking up to Pen-y-Ghent. Honestly I had no plan to do hiking that day. I was actually with my friends. They were hiking with their company mates. I clearly understood that I wasn’t fit enough for this hiking, so I decided to stay on my own, enjoying the sun and peace. I had no idea how I found the hiking route. So I decided to take videos as a memoir of Chek doing her first hiking on her own.









Done with my self reflection! Feel happy!


Mission accomplished!

I have a good weekend though. I consider it as another breakthrough for myself. I never do hiking on my own. Moreover, I don’t have any right equipment with me, no map, no compass, no clue etc. However, I enjoy the peace along the hiking journey.

I do self reflection when I was arrived at the half peak. What I shall conclude is we will never know our potential until we really push for it. My friends said that sometimes I may be too harsh for myself. Yes, I do! My philosophy is simple. I cannot have expectation on anything or anyone but myself. That is the only way to keep pushing me further.

Do check more pictures on my facebook! :)
