I was able to buy a promo fare going to Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia from Cebu Pacific. I flew to Kota Kinabalu only last July 18, 2008 and that was their first flight. I went there alone, but I met some filipinos there and also met my old friend Elwin with his partner Pam at the airport. When I arrived to Kota, super awesome yung salubong sa amin ng mga malaysian. It so wonderful and they gave some souveniers also. Me, Elwin and Pam stayed at Borneo Global. We met lot of friends there from different countries, from Denmark, Mexico, U.S. and France. We went to different places, going around the city. We went to 1 Borneo Mall, the largest mall there, Borneo Rainforest, Atkitson Clock Tower, State Museum, State Mosque, Night Market, Sunday Market, and the beautiful Tanjung Beach. Since I don’t have much time there, i wasn’t able to go to the tallest mountain, the Mount Kinabalu and wasn’t tried the white water rafting. I will probably do that next time.
The trip was so exciting because instead of taking the taxi, i would rather take the public buses. I always have my map with me for me not to get lost and in order to familiarize the places. I met several filipinos there, who worked there and some have business there, so it has not been difficult for me to go around the city because some malay understood some or little tagalog. It was so amazing the they could speak tagalog.
Me, Elwin and Pam we’ve been only together for two (2) days since they are going to Singapore for a business trip. I have been closed to Ollie, a french guy and Leandro, a filipino during our stay and even after our vacation trip from Kota. I gonna missed these guys since Ollie is going back to France and Leandro is going to Oman for work. Hopefully I will be able to see them again.
My trip here was one of my memorable experiences. Seeing new places and meeting more friends is really so exciting. I hope to be able to see more places and meet more friends from around the globe.
