As part of my Ecology degree I am spending 12 months in Sabah, Malaysia working with the Bornean Banteng Programme. I will be living in and around the tropical forests of Sabah and helping with the state wide survey of remaining Banteng Populations! Keep up to date with our work and my experiences on my blog.

We've Arrived
We've arrived! 25 hours after leaving home we are all checked into our little rooms for the night, having successfully negotiated Heathrow, Hong Kong and Kota Kinabalu airports and found ourself a taxi to the city centre. The aeroplane food was interesting, the evening meals were nice but not sure about minced chicken for breakfast! Very glad my welshcakes didnt get taken by customs so I had them to keep me going :D. Been for a wonder around a lovely night market and had food in a seafood food hall this evening. This place is soo cheap, it cost 11 british poumds for our airport transfer and our bed and breakfast...With all then luxuries... air con, wifi, hot showers!! Heading to Danau Girang tomorrow, not sure how much internet there is there... may be proper jungle living! X
