Serene Sabah


I'm back! It's been a short but peaceful trip. The three places I visited are Kota Kinabalu (KK to the locals), Nabawan and Tambunan. The la Salle Brothers have set up schools and boarding houses (known as Asrama) in these three areas catering to the needs of the students in those areas. Most of the students whose homes are far, far away from their schools (some as far as a 6 hour journey), live in the asrama to cut down on travel time.

As I sort out the images for the blog over the next few days... enjoy the spectacular view of Mount Kinabalu! :O)

Travel: Sabah


Today I leave for Sabah, East Malaysia for an assignment. It for a la Salle Brothers recruitment project that I have been working on. Although famed for its lush scenic national parks and mountain trekking, my itinerary will make three pit stops from Kota Kinabalu to Nabawan, to document footage for a mini documentary that I am working on for the Brothers. Will be back on Saturday.
