Back to Kalimantan last week for a site visit. It took 3.5hr drive from the hotel to the site 1 way, and I spent 7hr sticking my butt on the car for a few days.
There was no road in part of the area, with a local guide we trekked inside the jungle for 4.5hr. Waded through knee-height river several times, walked down and uphill, fell down twice, bushed scratched on skin, and shook off leeches occasionally. Felt like a camping trip in good old time.
Leeches sounds scary, but the feeling faded after a while. Just sprayed the mosquito repellent on it. I had 7 leeches on my 1st day trekking, and reduced to 5 the next day.

| First leech. There is another type which is longer and slimmer. |
 |
| Gosh... luckily the driver didn't see me. |
 |
| Unknown flower in the jungle. |
 |
| Poor sick little dog. |
 |
| Nasi Padang. They served foods over the whole table. We paid what we consumed. Foods are not fresh I think. |
