Often and for different reasons we find ourselves in a new place. Sometimes it is due to business travel, weekend getaway or just an unplanned surprise, and we never have sufficient time to explore all the sites in that place. It is a hard to decide which sites should get our limited time. We look it up, and than we start reading reviews, facts and stories about each place. Than we discuss it with our co-travelers to make a decision, but you know how it goes - everyone has a different idea. More time is spent picking the places than actually visiting them! Are you familiar with this situation? I certainly am.

My husband showed me a fun solution for this dilemma and I will introduce it to you. It is called GEOCACHING. Geocachers are connected via phone app and they are everywhere - small towns, big cities, villages. They hid a little treasure on beautiful locations (bench with a fantastic view, near a historical monument or in a hollow tree in a park) and leave GPS coordinates in the app. The app also provides (fun) facts about the location that help you get to know the city. You, as a geocacher, can decide to search for the treasure or to hide it. This treasure is usually a log book (paper roll) where finders can sign with their nick name hidden in a small plastic box such as the round one from analog camera film. The geocachers commit to always put it back in the same place. What I love about this game is that it always takes to some place worth your time, it limits the decision time on what to visit and kids love it. We have tried with our friends and their kids, and they simply enjoy the game of searching.

Hope this story inspires you to try geocaching, and if it does let me know if you like it.
