A weekend stay in the Forest

Most of us would have done a trek in a forest at some point of time. Whenever the conversation comes up, i always hear that it was an amazing experience and would love to do it again.

Now, how about a stay in the forest? No, i am not talking about setting up a tent and staying in it. When i was in my teens i guess i could live in a tent. I need my comfort. That being said – i need a nice comfy bed with a clean toilet with Wifi. These are the necessities. Anything else will be a bonus. 🙂

As part of the trip, there was a plan to have a weekend stay in the forest located in Gloucestershire which is just off Coleford. There are a lack of pictures as i did not plan to blog this trip.

Embarking on the start of my trip to London!

 

In this post, i will talk about my journey out of SG and the return.

This is the start of my trip which i have been planning for a long time. I have been procrastinating for about 2-3 years and planning for about 4-5 months.

Backtrack a couple of months…….

 

Initially i got many comments saying i am crazy or am i mad to travel for 1 month plus to some places. Will it be boring? Will i get lost? What happens if this and that… Oh gosh.. why are so so many people just so negative? I don’t understand.

On the flip side i got people who were so supportive and said that i should do it! Do it now or never. I guess for me it would be…. Do it now & again!!

So now the main part to convince everyone is to BOOK THE FLIGHT TICKET OUT OF SG!  Yes, i did that and choose Etihad as my airline of choice. The first flight was to London which was my base as i had accommodation at a relative’s place and a friend’s place. Yeah i had 2 bases indeed!

I have been told by some friends to take Turkish Airlines, Emirates or Singapore Airlines instead of Etihad. Now i will explain reasons why i chose Etihad. Firstly, i had been flying it a decent amount of time and had a build up of points.
