Team Building at Camp Lookout, Valencia

I took the chance to go with this year's faculty and staff retreat seeing that I have never attended one before and I also kind of needed to see a new place, what with all the work I had been doing in front of the computer recently.

The ride to camp lookout was a long one. I first thought it's only a little bit further away from Forest Camp but no. On board our jeepney, we passed through broken paths, roads under repair and a lot of trees. It was clearly what you would call a bumpy ride. It was fun though, because we get to laugh and joke about it along the way.

I found the place very relaxing and very reminscent of Baguio. Not that I've ever been to Baguio, no. I just think it reminds you of the place because of the trees and cabins. It could actually pass as a place somewhere in the Netherlands.

It was very peaceful and there were so many flowers and plants. Indeed such a great place to have a retreat and be at peace with nature. There were about five cabins where you could also spend the night if the retreat activities call for it.
