What does the video share?

It talks about geocaching and in the video, the creator explains how she was reminded of geocaching from TikTok.

She says:

I used to try to do it when I was little and I could never find anything.

What's geocaching?

She explains...

It's basically like different containers that are stored in like various hiding places around your area...

You use an app which tells you go and what to find. Then, you take what's in the geocache and switch it out with something you brought.

The video takes you down the hunt with the creator as she finds something. She spots a geocache 5 minutes away and heads there.

She's at a park and when she gets there, as close to coordinates as possible, she gets a clue from the app.

She finds it.

What's inside?

• A log so she can record her name and date
• A bag of marbles

After filling out the log, she replaces what she finds with some crystals and a dollar bill.
