Do you know what geocaching is? I didn't until a few months ago, and I hadn't tried it until three weeks ago. It's an activity where you look for caches that other people have hidden all around (you can see which caches are near you by checking the geocaching website). It's a very cool activity for a lazy Saturday and it doubles as exercise if you go for caches on foot. When you sign in on the website you can search for caches around the area you want to check and lock a certain cache as your goal, the app will let you know when you're a few meters away from it and some even have clues.
There's levels of difficulty on the caches and also different sizes. Most caches (at least the ones I've searched for) are a tiny container with a list - bring a pen so you can write your name on the list as one of the people who found it. Even though I haven't found any yet since I've just started, some caches contain objects that you can find and keep, or objects you need to swap for one of your own.
It's a great way to go out, bring a friend with you and have some fun. Maybe you can even meet new people, one of the times when we were out geocaching a guy saw us walking around a pole to see if we could find the cache and he tried to help us (he said he had found it already in the past). It's also very satisfying to actually find a cache - in all honesty we've been out around 4 times geocaching and we only found one, so we were pretty excited to find it.

Did you ever go geocaching? If so, what did you find?
