Most of the time people come up to me, asking how I make do travelling around all the time. And since I'm still studying, my budget can be tight at times.

The national park can be a little bit hard to find as the signboards leading to it is kinda small and hidden away. After driving uphill for about 10 minutes we arrived at the entrance of the park.
