Hello, respected members of #ccs I wish and pray you are doing great in your blessed passions, I am also doing good. I feel very cheerful while taking part in exciting contest camping adventures. Traveling is my passion and I always love to spend quality time with my family. I felt relaxed and calm while on the trip. Although sometimes it's frequent and it often may take time.

What is your most memorable camping experience, and why did it stick with you?

Traveling is a passion of mine and if I say I felt happy in traveling. Here I would like to share my favorite camping experience with you guys. I have traveled all around the hilly area of Pakistan but one heaven I always missed: I heard from people its heaven on the earth.

My curiosity was at its peak but despite all this, I couldn't manage my tour towards Azad Kashmir. One day we put luggage in the car and moved out towards Muzzafarabad. I have come to know that planned tours mostly failed. You can guess how much I would be excited because after 7 years I got a chance for the first time. We were near Neelum Valley Kasmir.

The view of neelum valley was mind-blowing from the car, no doubt the weather was so much pleasure, just out of words.

I request my husband to stay for a few minutes in the beauty of Paradise as it felt peaceful in any way. I take my one picture as we have to move a little forward but I would like to make it memorable in all respects. The weather and scenes, running water of Neelum attract me.

My every moment was memorable in Kashmir as I love to see it. I don't want to wwasteeeeete wish to fix all the beautiful scenery and peace in my eyes and heart forever, as it was extraordinary by all means. I couldn't capture it well but my words can tell you how much it was incredible.

What was the scariest moment you've ever had while camping, and how did you handle it?

Sorry to say but the road conditions were much miserable and we were at a speed of 20/ km. The scary moment was my mistake as my delivery was expected in the next week of my tour. Doctors gave me clear directions not to travel nor use stairs as the case may get complicated.

But I didn't care about her suggestions and moved out to see Paradise although it was a very long journey of about 9 hours from my home place. In aid way, my breath was disturbed and I got shortness of breath. I take the tablet and stayed for 30 minutes.

This moment was scary as there were no facilities ofororedical orhhhospitalizingsingggg midway. My husband was angry and said we should move home now but i resistant to it and said I must see Kashmir at any loss. Although I was going to give birth of baby after 7 years of my marriage. But thank God I got normal in one hour.

What is your favorite camping location or destination, and what makes it special?

My favorite camping location was Azad Kashmir and then Neelum Valley. After this we moved to Indo Pak occupied border I wish to see how it was and people's behavior and much more.

It was peaceful only vehicles were moving for security purposes, we were sitting on one side of Neelum Valley and the other running water of Neelum while on the de was India. I love this scene although it was permission to take pictures at the boundaries of both countries.

_{The boundaries where flags of Pakisanan and India raised and we can take pictures till that point and can not move next from this point.}

_{The beautiful houses of Indian and Pakistani people near the beautiful neelum Valley gave beautiful views to tourists.}

What is the best piece of advice you've ever received about camping, and how has it impacted your trips?

I advise if anyone is on medication must keep medicine with him. And the end thing I observed is food quality. I take all my cooking things with me even the stove.

_{The beauty of Kashmir, she gave me fresh corn.}

You should have all the cooking things it's a long journey and the food if you order or eat the quality is worst it was not according to my taste buds. I cooked it by myself. Although rates were not high.

What is the funniest thing that has ever happened to you while camping?

I was enjoying in running water of Neelum Valley water was so cool I couldn't tell you. I keep my feet in running water with shoes. A water wave splash me and I fewaswas as was assureddede was lost, Thank God I had another pair with me otherwise I have had to enjoy the tour with one shoe.

It was all about my wonderful time in Kashmir and Neelum Valley. I did stay at a hotel due to family issues camping was not possible.
I would like to invite my dear friends @ashkhan, @mdkamran99, and @rossnenye to take part in the contest.
