A home by the river





At the Kinabatangan river you will see houses along the river and some lodges. Before heading out to our river cruise, we stopped by at my host's relative's home. There her aunt welcomed us warmly and bade us to sit in her living room. Her shy daughter peeking out curiously at us from the kitchen. We sure were a colourful group!







The aunt had only got told of our visit that very morning and having no proper feast for us quickly got her daughter who works at the Eco Lodge to bring home some fresh water prawns from their trap. It was unexpected but that is how generous villagers are to outsiders, they don't begrudge their best to share with strangers.
