Bike camping at Pulau Ubin

Chee Chuan Loo · edited

This video from Anything Camping SG documents a bicycle camping trip in Singapore, focusing on the challenge of fire-starting in a humid environment.

Key highlights include:

Campsite Setup: The journey begins with the cyclist traveling by ferry (0:23 - 0:45) and cycling to a secluded, tree-lined camping spot where they set up a tarp shelter (1:04 - 1:36).
Fire Ignition Experiment: The core of the video is an experiment to see if charred softwood can successfully start a fire in the high humidity of Singapore (1:37). The creator uses a compact folding wood stove and demonstrates the ignition process using a ferro rod and prepared tinder (1:41 - 3:04).
Cooking: Once the fire is established, the camper proceeds to cook a meal using the wood stove, demonstrating outdoor meal preparation (4:06 - 4:26, 6:37 - 7:02).
Return Journey: After packing up the site (7:05 - 7:20), the video concludes with the return trip, cycling through lush greenery and visiting a cafe for an acai bowl before heading home (7:34 - 8:27).

    I've been watching your YouTube videos for about a year now! You actually inspired me to try solo camping at Pulau Ubin, and I've already done a couple of solo camping trips there this year, haha! 😂

      Thank you for watching. Just some of my favorite past time to relax over the weekend staring at wood fire and enjoying camp cook food.
