Backpack Borneo

I was very lucky when I arrived in Sabah. It was the start of the Kaamatan (Harvest) Festival, I stayed at a good hostel and met some great people who live there and showed me around - Aafke (on the right) and Stephen.

Unfortunately, all my photos are back in Australia, this is all I have left.

Taking "Hitting the 'turps" literally...
Kaamatan Festival, Sabah, Borneo 2001

What nearly killed me here was drinking this rice wine, the photo after this is the better one (which I don't have). I now know what industrial grade disinfectant tastes like...
How to sum up Sabah - We were on a boat out to an island off Kota Kinabalu with the Russian Karate Team, when Stephen looks up and says "This is my office!" Oh, the life of a Dive Instructor...

...there is no moral to the story, it's just a bunch of stuff that happened...
