Overview
About Me
I was born in the small district town called Tambunan, in Sabah, Malaysia.
( Or Borneo in general). I am of the Dusun ethnic (or KADAZANDUSUN as a whole) , which is the majority population in the state of Sabah. We love to PARTY! We drink, and party, and karaoke, even though most of us are devoted Christians. Don't get me wrong- We are also well known for our hospitality!
So to put it simply- I am an indigenous people :)
I am not used to traveling solo. Before this, I got the taste of traveling here and there with friends most of the time. However, on October this year, 2015, I will be setting off for my solo trip to few asians countries, starting with the countries of which I have people or friends I know.

Watching the Sunrise at the comfort of the bustop, while waiting for my bus to my high school. I did it for almost a year during my final year as high school student. Whenever I see the sun coming up, I feel like I was somewhere overseas, somewhere in a foreign country! Weird but beautiful feeling!
