Well, one of the most random thing I've ever done in Netherlands is going "Camping", yes camping.. sleeping in a tent for 2 nights, and just relaxing and enjoying the nature, it was a nice option to do. So, I met this guy on internet (crazy I know), and he seems a pretty expert "Camping Guy", so I decided to go camping for a weekend. We picked Landgoed de Hoevens, it's a camp-site just in a border of Belgium, so you can actually walk there. Camping here is quite different than in Indonesia where you can just go to a mountain (for example Gunung Putri), hike, and put your tent randomly. In NL you can only set your tent in a designated area, and you have to pay certain amount of money per tent or per person. It depends on which campsite you're at.
In return of that money you paid, you got a pretty decent facility, like wifi, clean toilet and bathroom, so you can actually take a decent shower, instead of going to a river or find some water source just to wash your face.
My First Day Camping, I didn't do a lot today, just learn how to build a tent, and went shopping to a supermarket nearby to buy some food to survive. After we had our dinner we joined a bunch of people sitting around the campfire, just try to warm up ourselves, because it was one cold night of September.
Second Day, we woke up quite late and just enjoy the sunshine, luckily the sun shine nicely so I can wear my shorts to take a walk in the forest, yes the mission today is to walk to the Belgium border, it took quite a long walk 4-5 hours in total back and forth, but the view was stunning and it was worth the effort.
We end this camping trip on our 3rd Day. We got exhausted because of the coldness and the walk.. Before we went back home we make a stop at the city nearby and take some random pictures.
