Out-Of-Civilization Journey....

Our shoes when we were there.....

I went to this place called "Uncle Tan Wildlife Adventure" recently.

Why I call it a place of "out-of-civilization", because you can't have what we had taken for granted throughout the years......

1 - No TV
2 - No MOBILE connectivity
3 - No Electricity (except within 6pm - 12am where they run the generator)
4 - No "Clean" water except for drinking & cooking water which they needed to "carry" from the base camp. (yeah, i saw those eyes.... I showered using the water that came directly from the Kinabatangan River).

Uncle Tan Wildlife Adventure is located along Kinabatangan River in Sandakan. Well, if you guys had paid attention in geography class back in high-school.., Kinabatangan River should rings a bell. It is the longest river in Sabah.

Check out their website : www.uncletan.com for more info.

I won't suggest this place to people whom don't appreciates basic living or out of civilization.
Don't do it just because others did it la..., Okay. You must have passion for nature and the need to get out of civilization and to be just yourself (and few of your friends), doing nothing and hang out with strangers and listen to their stories.

We stayed in a "cage" for 2 nights, walk around in "water".... (check out the photos in my FB, cause it will tell more stories...)

I went there with another group of friends few years ago, and went again this time with EJ.

And, all we did was hang out, chill out, chit chat, fishing (or act fishing)...... and trust me, we are very satisfied for doing NOTHING BUT TALKING AND LEPAKING for those few days.....

My "contribution" to the nature... my blood. Guess the mosquitoes prefer my blood rather than the angmoh's blood.... I am a "foreigner" there anyway...
