Back-to-Basics: Woodcraft & Bushcraft Experience
Have you travelled to many places? Trekked, or even camped in the wild? Do you fancy yourself a true adventurer?
If your answer to all three questions is YES (or if you’d like it to be YES), come join us for a Back-to-Basics: Woodcraft & Bushcraft Experience in nature! (We also took the team from The Smart Local out to adventure earlier this February)
You’ll have an inspiring and rejuvenating day detoxing in the rainforest with like-minded adventurers. You’ll also learn basic bushcraft (wilderness survival skills), woodcarving, and make your own one-of-a-kind emergency wooden whistle!
If you’ve been following BE on Facebook or Instagram for a while, then we welcome you to join and meet more of our awesome community of adventurers!
Our basecamp is located at Ground-Up Initiative (GUI), Singapore.
Take in the sky, the green of the trees, and the soothing sounds of nature. Spend your afternoon making new friends over bushcraft and woodcraft activities, freshly brewed tea, and a delectable lunch cooked outdoors. As we connect with Mother Nature, we too connect with ourselves — and with each other.
Look forward to a rejuvenating day out filled with friendship, laughter and great vibes!
