Mount Kinabalu
On the way back downIn the space since his last entry the boy wonder crossed the ocean to the the island of Borneo and:
nearly broke his neck when he was catapulted a metre in the air and hit his head on the roof of the bus as it flew down the worlds most bumpiest roads on the way to the South of Borneo
was stalked by a mentally deranged Indonesian man who wore pink lipstick and kept trying to kiss him in Banjamasin in South Kalimantan
met an engineer of a coal mine on a bus to Samarinda and drove the companies 4 by 4 down to the mine with his little hard hat on as if he was a worker there
nearly frooze to death when the silly willy climbed the tallest moutain in South East Asia in Sabah, Malaysia Borneo in shorts and t-shirt and not only did he have symptoms of Trench foot but prehaps discovered a new medical condition called Trench body as a supposed rainjacket failed to protect him from the constant two day showers that left him soaked to the bone and he emerged after the two day fiasco to resemble a giant human
prune
visted Brunei Darussalam and met a guy who worked for the Ministry of Defense and was taken to the most famous and expensive 6 star Empire Hotel in the Capital city for the day
spent 6 hours inside the Asian Civilisation Museum in Singapore and nearly got locked inside because the silly boy got carried away whilst listening to a video about India and did not pay attention to the announcement over the load speaker that the museum was closing in five minutes.
5 countries in the space of two weeks, little Philly arrives safe and sound in Ho Chi Minh City for his mega journey that he estimates will take three months all over land to the North of Vietnam and into South East China, across to Tibet and up to the North West of China near Kazakstan to visit the famous Silk Road and then back to Beijing before he flys back to his home country, as well as a venture to Hong Kong and possibly to Taiwan to sort out a job as an English Teacher.
Hope all is well my little friends, I'm gonna enjoy my open air room for 1
pound 50 a night. Shame the ceiling comes up to my shoulders though!
Fairwell
