What ever you do, do it in style! 😎🫢

Haha trekking and hiking takes time, and it's totally okay because the most beautiful view comes after the hardest climb!

Well, that's true, but that is not all! 😆, the time taken is not just because of the hardest climb, but it's because of all the many photo taken stops done along the way. 😂😂

✨ South Peak, Mount Kinabalu ✨

One of the most iconic spots for hikers—if it looks familiar, that's because it's the same peak featured on the back of Malaysia's RM100 note! 💸 Every climber makes a point to capture this view, and honestly, pictures don’t do it justice. The feeling of standing here, surrounded by the vastness of the sky and the towering granite, is beyond words. 🌄

If you’ve been thinking about climbing Mount Kinabalu, take this as a sign to go for it! The challenge is real, but the reward? Absolutely worth every step. 🏔️

Our hike at Bukit Batu Lebah began with a meet and greet with these cheerful lovely young explorers. What an energetic bunch!

Reminded me much of my schooling days..

We took our chance to visit the 15-century Mirjan fort during our India expedition.

Apparently, this fort played a huge role for defence and Black Gold trade (pepper) under the rule of "The Pepper Queen" Rani Chennabhairadevi who build and ruled the place for 54 years.

As we reached the fort, instead of going into the fort, we decided to explore the area surrounding the outer walls of the fort.

The terrain started smooth and easy, but it got rougher with overgrown vegetations and uneven ground as we went deeper further. But temptation to explore kept us going till we realized the fort was indeed huge and we were not even halfway around its parameter.

Due to shortage of time as we still have a few more hours of road trip to mid Karnataka, we decided to end the exploration and get into the more touristy section of the fort, which is inside the inner wall.

It was indeed a beautiful fort, and we were glad that we decided to detour to the fort along our journey. We wish we had more time to explore, and of course do some photoshoot wearing our medieval hats on! 👑🤭😆

I have been hiking here for the past 28 years, probably more than a hundred times. Yet, it remains my favourite place to find peace.

A sight of Mt Kinabalu from my varanda this morning...

No matter how many times I have been up there, the way ahead still makes me nervous.

The Kinabalu team looking all positive at our pre-hike dinner at Kinabalu Park Lodge. The hike starts tomorrow.

We are just waiting for one more member of the group that will be arriving tomorrow morning and join the group at the park office.

Wish us luck and pray for our safety!

May the journey be smooth for us!

I got a bird's eye view of this beautiful waterfall as I was flying my drone above the canopies of a national park in Samoa...

Went on looking for it after that.

We walked on that ridge approximately an hour before reaching the highest point of the mountain. What seemed like a flat table top from afar wasn't really that flat 😅😅 the were still ups and downs and we still had to crawl up "walls" and slide down "gravel" between the start of the table top to the actual peak...

On mountains... There is always more than meets the eye!

Such a beautiful morning at the west coast of Johor... And climbing the coastal hill and viewing from the height was indeed a pleasant sight!

Seas of clouds during one of my hikes at this small hill in Bahau, N9.

Had my cup of coffee blissfully watching the clouds fading away as the sun gets higher. And slowly the other hills and mountains started showing up...

lens was quite dirty that day, and that's why those spots on the picture
