We became a close knit team, at the same time discovering who we really were. Out in the bush, under pressure your real character shines through, and it was a fantastic almost cleansing feeling. The intense friendship and love was prominent with all of us accepting each other's weaknesses and applauding our strengths. Gone were the superficial and shallow aspects of modern life and we adored it. I think that we all underwent a change for the better and will benefit from this for a long while.
