Back from a pleasant trip to KK.
The place has the same vibe as JB. A sense like nothing ever changes here but this fuzzy feeling instantly wrapped me cozy in its velvety images of old buildings, towering trees and mighty mountains. Saw glimpses of beautiful ethnicity of the locals, I wish I had more time to just sit at a corner and capture those faces. 'Sabah has the slowest growth', Dominic, my tour-guide murmured but with a smile I replied ‘It means the development hasn’t fully imprison KK’s soul and confine it in a bottle.’
I was looking forward for the Filipino market, one of the must visit; run by the Filipino immigrants. But it’s just another normal sight. Some dudes who were selling things like watches and sunglasses kept forcing some of us to buy, which I found very rude. An abundance of local handicrafts are sold in rows of small stalls compressed along badly lit alleys. It’s the place where visitors, tourists and locals buy cultured pearls and fake gemstones as cheap as RM10 for 3. The curb outside of the market area stationed Filipino tailors who offer cheap stitching and alteration services.
Nexus Karambunai on the other hand is really nice. Great place to unwind for a few days. And my few days turned out pretty awesome with a few good first-time experiences. I can never believe myself for snorkeling so deep in Sapi Island, even with my life-jacket on; thanks to those who dragged me in.
The heat didn’t distract me from having fun. BBQ lunch under the shady trees was alright; light and just enough. Was surprised to see lots of komodo around, friendly and love to sniff beach bags. Funny creatures. Sapi is charmingly beautiful I might do a second time and rock the other three islands.
