My Travel.. My Journey..

TO be the tourist guide??? no way bro.... I am able to be your tourist guide only at certain areas like Mars, Jupiter, Saturn.. all the planet lah.. Especially if you visit my hometown Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. If you wish to travel to Peninsular, I can be your guide as well. Others places like dalam hutan, naik gunung everest., i'm surrender.. susah, nanti kita pandai bergaduh la pulak.. Just joking... hahahaha. Where ever you want to go.. I will bring you. 

Ok la... After we done with our mission to conquer the Mount Kinabalu, on the same day, we continue our trip to Kota Kinabalu. Here, we stayed at Hotel Stay Inn. Located in the Sedco building, the budget is really ideal for us. For 3D2N, each person only has to pay a total RM40.. Really budget aaa.. !!

JUST CHECK IN.... at Stay Inn Hotel (pic above left: Mr Fairuz try to be a Porter)

 Talking about tour guide... I have been appointed to be the unofficial tour guide to my colleagues when we were in KK. Buli la ba kan... tempat sendiri jg.. bukan susah pun mau bawa drg jalan2.

My job as a "tour guide" is not very difficult.. Just took them sightseeing around the city of Kota Kinabalu... took them to the places of interest and tourist attraction places such as Pasar Filipin, Waterfront, shopping complex.. etc.

CITY TOUR.... where is the good stuff... we want to bring them back to KL.

One of my friend said to me... "ko masih pandai ka jalan2 d KK... bertahun-tahun sdh ko tggl d KL.... jadi org KL sdh ko tu.".. hahahahaha.. very funny bro... weeiii... this is my hometown bro.. tukar mcm mana pun tu arah jalanraya semua... it's not a big problem to me.

If Sarawak is popular with Ikan Terubuk masin and Kek Lapis.. Sabah is well know of the PEARL !!! yessss..... The treasure of the sea that would be the best choice to serve as a souvenier for every tourist who travel to the Land Below The Wind. Kawan2 saya juga tidak terkecuali... mereka "borong" pearl.. makanan ringan (kuih cincin), Kopi Tenom and Sabah Tea...

Althought still tired, my colleagues still have energy to explore the city.. 10am - 10pm... perrghhh!!! dorang ni nda tau penat ka... hehehehe.. we just have a day to tour the city. That's why they were really exited.


FLY BACK TO KL... while waiting for our flight at KKIA.

WELCOME HOME GUYS... just landed at KLIA.

The next day (30th April) we flew back to KL... left many sweet memories during our holiday in Kota Kinabalu.. Memories that will remain forever.

Once again thanks guys for visiting my hometown!!!! *cheers*

P/S: Looking for me?? I was the photographer and the tour guide as well... so, jgn heran la muka sya tiada dlm gmbr nie aaa... besides, I can take photos anytime here... coz, this is my hometown.

Hello there.... Thanks for keep following my story... This is the final episode.. *smile*

28th April - After we managed to conquer the summit of Mt Kinabalu... Without wasting time, we continue our journey back down to Laban Rata.. everyone is hungry.. so, we have to move fast. hehehehe.... errr... looks like my story banyak cerita pasal makan pula kan.

Beside, we also need to get ready to-go-back to the kaki gunung on the same day. Meaning, we don't have much time. Everything must be done fast.. So, after taking dozens (total 493 photos) of photos for memories, we begin the steps move down the mountain.

From the peak to Laban Rata, it's take half an hour to get there. After having a rest and enjoy some food as well.. we started packing our stuff. Promptly at 11.00 am,. we begin to move down to the foot of the mountain.. err.. betul ka tu ayat untuk "kaki gunung".. hehe.

Time to go down... Non-stop.... !!! Just relax only for 2 or 3 minutes... mau cepat sampai bawah.. Semasa mendaki kami mencatat masa 5 jam untuk sampai ke Laban Rata... Tetapi apabila turun.. kami berjaya catat masa selama 3 jam 45 minit.. perrghhhh.. 


Wait a second.. do you think we are too fast??? NO..!!!! Because there are somebody out there who are damn fast... See the picture below.

28th April - The watch is showing at 1:30 am.. With great enthusiasm we stepped out of the room and headed to the dining hall (that's only the intention in our mind at that time.. EAT)... Hehehehehe. Let's supper !!! because the weather is very cold (understand the temperature stood at negative (-3) degrees Celsius). Thus, we easily get hungry and hungry !!!!

KM 8... another 200m to go

The sunrise.....

One more thing.. actually, when we climbed up to Laban Rata.. I was not feeling well.. experiencing severe headaches. Probably due to the extreme cold weather and the pressure as well. 


"Ya Allah !!!! Give me strength to face these allegations. Amin."

I tried to ignore the pain... and at exactly 2:30 am, we started climbing to the summit. everything starts smoothly. Moving with caution in the early morning darkness. It is estimated that a total of 50 climbers (from all over the world) started climbing the mountain at the same time. Totally memang jem jalan time tu..

One-by-one and team-by-team 'over take' us! Mana buli jadi ni... hehehe.. At first, we were in the front position.. kira yang paling awal daki tu gunung la ba kan.. tapi ntah mcm mana team kami blh berada di belakang.. sikit lg yang paling last..... chayokkkkk.... hahahahaha.. nda ba.. *laugh*

The most challenging part is when you have to use the climbing rope.. perrrghhh.. I'm telling you what.. mis-step, you will fall into the ravine. So, don't play-play aaa... must be serious !!! errrr... actually safety first !!


Severe headache strikes again... langkah panjang jadi pendek! langkah laju jadi pelan! With the strong wind and very cold air.. I almost gave up!! although the distance is just 700m away to the peak.

Finally, I made ​​it to the highest peak in Southeast Asia at exactly 6:00 am!! Two of our friends conquered the peak earlier and they managed to say HI to the sunrise. The other friend made it 20 minute later.. ok la ba kan... at least sampai jg semua..

WE MADE IT...!!!!!!! congratulation to all. (from left: Madonna, Lady Gaga, Fairuz, Zamri (sit), Zaid Kacak and Asai)

After about 15 minutes at the summit... kami pun turun kembali ke Laban Rata... dengan hati yang sungguh riang gembira.... hehehe... dan dalam fikiran time tu... MAKAN !!!!! kami lapar ni...

YEHAAAAAAA....!!!!!!!


To be continued... stay tune... chowwwww !!!!

Do you understand the title that I gave? MENUJU KE PUNCAK GUNUNG KINABALU...  Yehaaaaa... !!! at last, I made it..!!!

26th April - It's almost 9:30 am and we landed safely at KKIA.. fly with FireFly.. However, we got the bad news.. BAD NEWS INDEED!! My luggage has been opened by someone without my permission!! And I have lost my sun-glasses worth RM380!!! I am not alone but many passengers had the same bad luck like me.... Shittt..!!

the banner "Asai & The Gangs"... mahal tu beb.

At the National Park

The deepest part of my life - during the shuttle flight KL to KK - when someone is waiting for me at the airport, by holding a banner that stated my name... wakakakakaka.. punya best.. lps tu, ada lagi Bas Persiaran tunggu d luar... yehaaaa !!! I feel like a foreign tourist visiting Sabah, my hometown!! hehehe..

Without wasting time, we continued our journey to Kundasang Highland. Errr.. There is nothing interesting during this trip. Only, the scenery of green mountains. After about an hour's drive, we arrived at the National Park. Here, we register the names for the purpose of climbing the mountain. After that,  we proceeded to Mesilau, Kundasang.. We will stay here for one night.  All go to bed early... really cool... !!!

all the way... have a break!!

The journey begins

While being briefed about the distance and travel time to Laban Rata, we understand that it will take up to 8 hours to reach the destination. But, we managed to get to destinations within 5 hours (arrival at 3:00pm).. so fast hah... hehehehe..

Beautiful view from Laban Rata... guess what... kami berada di atas awan.
