Sandakan the East Coast of Sabah. Stunningly Beautiful. Fun filled trip of gorgeous scenery, friendly orang-utans and proboscis monkey, seafood, seafood and more seafood!

It was my first time to the east of Sabah. Yes, I’m a 19 yr old Sabahan who was just given the privilege to visit this magnificent place. I’ll admit, I’m glad that only now was I given the opportunity to go, because if it was say 10 years ago? Well, I don’t think I would appreciate it that much. Now that I’m much older, I have grown to appreciate nature more. Which is what this trip was all about, Nature. From the bottom of my heart, I say this place is truly amazing. Just a 7 hours drive (if you’re driving super fast) from Kota Kinabalu. But trust me, it is all worth it. You can even stop by Kundasang, which is a 2 hour drive from KK, have lunch there maybe? and continue your journey to the east. Can’t really express my feelings through words but lets just say the trip has given me the chance to reconnect to nature to recreate myself.
