My first Malaysia Week

I went on my first and most special malaysia week site. I went to sungai slim, river slim. And what I liked the most about the site was that it was easy, everything went slow and relaxed.



I had a few good friends already, but I also made new friends on the way. I enjoyed doing everything slow and easy and always resting after a while.



We had lots of free time and we could swim in the river slim right next to our campsite! There also was a log where we could jump off. It was pretty high, like two meters in the air and four meters down in the water.



In the evening the Orang Asli women and children would come over to our dinner - table and they would teach us how to weave. We wove a headress and a basket.



We went for a kayaking trip where people would bang into the riverside and run into trees and people even fellout the kayaks at strong rapids. Only my friend and I did not. We also went for a rafting trip were we enjoyed the waterfalls and the strong current that ran through the river.



We had a soccer - match against the Orang Asli boys. Although we lost really badly, it was still alot of fun.



Only what I enjoyed the most was hanging out and the free time we got to have. Playing cards and learning new games, solving questions and having fun with each other. But what always, yes always is important is learning to know each other better.
