Quick escape to Kota Kinabalu

Posted by travelanyway on

I haven’t been on any trip for the past month and my itchy feet is looking for the next destination.

But for now, here’s a quick trip to Kota Kinabalu circa 2012.

I was with 2 of my city-lover-type-of-friends so aside from the 8 hours of shopping (yes, believe me), we did a few stopovers that made the stay worth it. Enjoy!

  • City Night Stroll – Night Market

  • Island Hopping – Sapi Beach (TIP: The fish, they’re not as friendly as you think they are. Some can bite you when you don’t have food to offer. But don’t be scared, give it a try!)

My Excuse for this trip? I didn’t know Kota Kinabalu was a real place, till my friends told me so. haha! This is probably one of the trips that made me realize my love for traveling. Oh yeah, we got to meet a scientist too!
