    It's our first time in Borneo and we really didn't know what to expect coming here but we are so excited for our first day in Sabah Malaysia and we're heading out to explore Kota Kinabalu for the first time! The city here really surprised us and we can't wait to discover more of what Borneo has to offer...

    😅 Most of Sabahan & Sarawakian can speak and understand English well especially in big cities. In the bsrber shop, your translation device somehow translate 'longer' to 'lebih lama' instead of 'lebih panjang', it's gave different meaning😅 Anyhow have fun in Sabah, also called by~ Land below the wind

      I second this. This is the Annual Harvest Festival aka Kaamatan. The biggest celebration will be on May 30-31 at KDCA in KK. However, you may also attend the mini Kaamatan festivals at various areas too. It is a must-see for foreigners!

    Biasanya..waktu petang /sunset baru banyak orang di pantai..btw there's a night market by the beach. As a local, we don't really eat at the food stall near the waterfront, the price is over the moon and the cleanliness is 😅. the kid's you met who asked for money.. they're not locals. There's a lot of immigrants in KK, especially the spot you went to here. I hope you'll stay for KAamatan festival. Small festivals held in every village and district, and the peak will be held in KDCA Penampang on 30 &31st of May.
    You need a local guide to take you around or you'll stuck to the typical tourist spot and spent a lot of money.

    I'm Sabahan and we all grown up watching sunset at the beaches. I strongly recommend you to try entering the Shangrila Resort and also Sutera Harbour to watch the sunsets and enjoy the seabreeze! It's super relaxing and the vibe is very chill there! You can enter for free even if you're not the residents there!
    Also most of the Sabahan normally can speak English fluently, don't trust the others who said Sabahan can't speak in English lol.

    • @cpy9516
      @cpy9516 Рік тому +1

      Also the Tanjung Aru beach you guys went, it's always crowded like crazy especially during the sunsets. The reason why it was so quiet XD was probably because of the night market behind. Tanjung Aru is also a very large (long) beach and sometimes people somehow just gather on the same spot, while the other parts of the beach will be empty.
      I personally recommend you guys to watch sunsets at the Shangrila or Sutera Harbour. Tanjung Aru is nice, too, but sometimes it's way too crowded and you can see trash on the beach :\

    I hate when i see people living their trash everywhere . Wonder why they don t have rules to restrict this behaviour . Been traveling to places invaded by trash , plastics , cigarettes and we always had the reflexes to clean the all beach to help to keep it natural vibe and nice, but this need to be done weekly all year around . I wish locals be more educated by the government and trained to maintain their beautiful locations. It s a big plus for them to make good business and attract cool travelers .
