The first step to love mountain
Caption: This is my first mountain hiking over my life. I have waited for the long time to get my hiking time. For me, hiking is the best time to retreat your soul into your Creator.
I always love how God talk to me by His nature. I am the small one and He is the greatest.
I choose Mt Papandayan to be my first. And I didn't regret it. It's my awesome experience to be here.
