Mount Trus Madi, Sabah

Everyone, meet the most resourceful tour guide ever, who hitchhike himself to tambunan from kk all alone to get our permits settled... anyone wants to get a shot at the reality show 'Amazing Race Asia', sorry... he's fully booked... haha

Picture of us before the climbFrom left to right : the guide who never talk to us, the 19 years old potter, andersen who's also 19 but look at the size difference, rachel, grace, pat and tim...

Check out the smiles and the semangat-ness...

After 2 days and 1 night :

Addidas kampung shoes which only cost RM3.90 a pair, is a MUST for climbing any mountains...

Freaky-little-slimy-blood-sucking-hole-wriggling-things...but at the end of the day, we all manage to transform into leech killers coz were so used to leech biting us... these leeches are invincible, they juz seem to attack from every direction, up,down,left,right...

one small part of the journey we took...

Beautiful flora on our way...

Pulau Tiga, Sabah

the journey started from Kuala Penyu, which is 2 hours ride from KK... from there, we need to take a 45 minutes ferry ride to Pulau Tiga, also known as the survivor island coz it was the setting of america's Survivor television series, Survivor Borneo - the first season of the show...

Pulau tiga means 'island of three' in malay... they are made up of 3 parts, first is the big main island, then the Pulau Kalampunian Demits or better known as' Snake Island' and Pulau Kalampunian Besar or 'Sand bar'.
