Huge caves
Mulu is pretty much in the middle of nowhere and only accessible by plane. It consists of the airport, an expensive hotel and the national park headquarters where I visited to find my cheap dorm accommodation. I registered and enquired ...
The Bario, eh
I flew from Miri into the Kelabit Highlands at about 4500 feet to the settlement of Bario, which has about 1000 people and can only be reached by Twin Otter plane or foot. So, I have now met the KKK of Borneo (Kayan, Kenyah, Kelabit). My flight also ...

Caves, jungle and bats

caves, bats, and bugs
Warm, wet air engulfs us as we step off the plane and catch our first glimpse of the Mulu rainforest. We pass through a leafy, overgrown trellis onto a bouncy cable bridge across a swollen, muddy river and arrive at what feels like Jurassic Park. The ...
Back to Brunei
We returned to Kuala Belait for a few days rest before getting back to work. KB seemed quieter than ever after the lively towns of Malaysia. Taking the car made things so much easier and we both feel it was one of the best holidays we have ever had. It ...
