What does Getaway look like?
At about XNUMX:XNUMX, I found our campsite and followed the signs to our small forest. The appearance of Getaway House is really compact. It is the size of a truck container and surrounded by woods. At first glance, it looks a bit empty. For too long in a city surrounded by tall buildings and crowds, seeing such a large forest and such a small house is still a visual impact.
Here is the tree except you.There are about 25+ mini cabins in the camp. Between each cabin, there is almost half a playground as far away. On the one hand, you can be sure that you are not alone, but you don’t have to worry about being disturbed at all. It is completely private. Small forest.

(I.e. 9:00 PM watch the stars
This is my favorite part. The forest at night is pitch black, standing outside the door of the cabin, surrounded by trees, the moonlight is too white, the woods are all painted white, especially like the soul of a tree, the degree of the air seems to be very high. Take a few deep breaths, a little floating.
The forest has never been the home of human beings, surrounded by this unfamiliar aura, panicked, feeling that it will be taken away by the tree spirit in the next second.The two little counselors hurriedly hid in the house within a few minutes and locked the door.
Fortunately, the large windows in the room are very transparent, you can clearly see the stars above your head, the sky is beautiful, the stars are huge, the mana of the moonlight is psychedelic, and the mana of the stars is calm.Just lying in bed and staring at the stars in a daze, like when I was a child.
(I.e. 10:00 PM lights off and sleep
At ten o'clock in the evening, the long-lost sleepiness came. I took a hot bath and applied a mask without drawing the curtains. After the lights were turned off, my eyes were dark. I closed my eyes and glanced at the stars above my head.The world has not been so quiet for a long time.
🕡 6:30 AM Woke up by the sun
I slept very peacefully. When I woke up, the sky was already bright. I could see the forest at the first sight when I woke up. The winter sun was very soft, and I closed my eyes at all, ah, so happy, don’t say much, and sleep again. A return to sleep.
🕣 8:30AM breakfast
Eat my favorite Indonesian dry noodles, a bowl of sweet seedless grapes.
Eating in the wild is always better than eating at home~
Sitting at the outdoor table, woodpeckers are eating bugs, I am eating breakfast.
Good morning everyone, duck.
🕤 9:30 AM Check Out
The rule is to check out before 11 o'clock. We tidy up the room, wash the bowls, and make up the bed. Such a good cabin, just want to cherish it, let me sit on the bed and enjoy the large windows.
I have to praise the humanity of the cabin. On the last page of the cabin manual, there are actually check out Lists, reminding you not to forget the clothes on the hook behind the door, and remember to turn off the lights and lock the door.Goodbye, heal my cabin, goodbye, forest.
