Back in Kota Kinabalu

I just flew back into Kota Kinabalu from Sandakan, which used to be called "Little Hong Kong". Most of the Chinese families in Sandakan are originally from Canton in the south of China so everyone there speaks Cantonese.

Just two full days left in East Malaysia so I decide to treat myself to my own room in the hostel!

"Do you want air-con?"

Get the hell outta here... It's been dorm rooms with a fan this whole trip. It costs US$11 for my own room with air-conditioning. Of course, I want air-con.
