26 - 29th June 2011: Conquering Mount Kinabalu - Unforgettable :D
















It has been an eye-opening and unforgettable experience. To climb and conquer Mount Kinabalu with my best friend, Xue Ying and her brother Ray.

I enjoyed every minute of the trip. I love our guide, Connie! :) The scenery and the refreshing air at Kinabalu is simply amazing. The people are so welcoming and friendly; they make you feel at home.

Though I have to say that the journey to Low's Peak was not an easy one but I am so glad we all made it! Without Connie's assistance, I would never have conquered the mountain.

What I gained from this trip:-

1) New friends

2) Being almost lost but met Azmi who helped me find my way back to Laban Rata

3) Trekking in the dark

4) Encounter with a snake

5) Glad I conquered Mount Kinabalu with my best friend, Xue Ying and Ray

According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
