Daytrip To Back Where I Was Born!
Hi guys! If you're new here, you should subscribe to my RSS feed. TQ for visiting! :)
Can y’all guess which town I went today? If you don’t know, it’s okay, you’ll know by the end of this post!
Anyway, Dad and WC wanted to go to kampung to settle some business, so Mom and I tagged along. How could I miss this trip, right?? I haven’t been back to kampung in a LONG time!

The driver, mi papa
It was WC and my first time experiencing the Kimanis road, and OMG, it’s so high up! You really need a 4WD to be able to use this road, especially if your car is full of people!

See the uphill road? There are lots of it on this Kimanis road! I didn’t know!
It’s a good thing we used Dad’s 4WD too, because there was a stretch of construction on the road where a recent landslide had hit!
If normal sedan car, confirm nangis man your car!! What more if it’s raining, you’ll be spending a night on this road! (so steep and slippery lah if raining ni!)
With all those bump from the bad road, we stopped at this place called Dimie Pedalaman Resort sometime afterwards for some drinks:
