The Person in Me

We joined Sam and his family along with AJ for a weekend climb to the Bung Jagoi. It is a heritage site for the Bidayuhs (Jagoi clan). My family (dad's side) originated from this mountain village but they have moved down to Duyoh Village.  My family did attempt the climb back in 1985 when my mom was heavily pregnant with my sister. It was a trip during the Gawai celebration but we never made it to the top as my mom was not that fit with the baby inside her. I remembered how frustrating it was when my dad told us that we'd have to ditch the idea and return. So since then, I have never made it up there. It's rather ironic for a Jagoi Bidayuh not to climb the Bung Jagoi(I climbed the Singai Mountain instead)...  But finally, I made it.  Here are some photo. Enjoy! 

Flew to Chiang Mai for a short weekend break. From Kuching we departed and continued on with a flight from KLIA2 (delayed until 4pm). As usual, go crazy on the delicious Thai foods. Reasonable prices despite weak Malaysian Ringgit(RM7.45 to 100baht).

So I ran a 10km marathon in the Kuching Marathon. The last marathon (also a 10km) was in the Borneo Marathon in Kota Kinabalu back in 2014. So this time around, we ran at 5.30am and it was drizzling and cool morning to run a marathon. ENJOYED it so much, not so much running more like jogging. Finished within an hour and 15mins.

The Journey to the Vodkaland So I was in Moscow from the 30th May till 10th of June 2017.Flew from Kuching to KLIA with the Malaysian Airlines and a later flight at around 11p.m. to London with the British Airways. Arrived 13 hours later at Heathrow and another B. A. flight to Moscow(D. M. E. Airport).I took a train to Moscow and it was a pleasant journey. Got lost a while in the metro station. It was very exciting indeed and it didn't take me too long to plan for this trip. Although getting the Russian Visa part can be quite daunting. I had to fly in and out of K. L like three trips just to have my Russian Visa sorted due to limited time and my hectic class schedule. Anyhow, proud of myself for making the trip to Moscow! I was staying at Arbatskaya Street in one of the apartment complexes like the above. It's very convenient as the restaurant and a sushi bar are located at the ground floor. I didn't get to see the other parts of the red square due to li
