2022 - The Year I Climbed a Mountain

The only achievement that I am proud off this year was climbing Mount Kinabalu. It was my second time ascending the mountain, and I posted an entry about it onto my Facebook page. Here, take a read:

"Every hiker will snap a photo at this signboard when they reach the summit of Mount Kinabalu - to proof that they have reached the peak of one of the highest mountains in South East Asia.

To reach the summit, hikers would have to start hiking at 2.30am in pitch darkness with only a head lamp lighting their way. The steep incline, low oxygen level and freezing temperature makes the ascend more challenging. Therefore, when they reach the peak, it is their moment of achievement and glory.

On 20 June 2022, I had my mountaintop experience on the peak of Mount Kinabalu. But it is a shame that my three comrades did not make it to the summit within the time frame, and that is why I am the only one in the photo."
