When you are called to climb over the mountain...

From left to right will be Joachim, Dorcas, Me, Ying Ying and Zhou.

Once you step into "adulthood" or "career life" is hard to pull out some time and go and enjoy yourself with your friends. Everyday we are busy with all our working assignments and trying our very best to make up our bills. We often forget to just pause for awhile, take a deep breath with a 5 mins break to look outside of the window and chill. All our senses are so tight until we forget how to relax. But the good thing is God create something call "friends". These are the ones who would literally drag you out from your "tighten zone“ and make you feel alive again.

One of these days our friend Joachim, from came from Finland decided to pay Malaysia a visit. In Finland, their country's average weather temperature will be around -6°C (22°F) to 17°C (62°F). So for them, they don't really understand how we can survive in such weather. All they need is electrical fan, air con and a lot of tissue for their sweat!

This time we decided to bring him over to one of our favorite hiking place, named "Broga Hill". From our place to Broga will took us around 1 hour 45 mins depends on the day's traffic. What we plan is we need to get there around 7am, and will spend about 1 and a half hour to make it to the 3rd peak, enjoy the sun raise and come back down. But as you know typical Malaysian timing, we tend to delay a bit here and there. But still we can it through all the way to the highest peak. Broga is actually quite easy to hike. If you are a beginner and wish to try out some hiking activities, this might be one of your option to go! :)

As you can see, the path is consider easy and not require any hiking shoes. Yeah, we all wearing jogging shoes except Ying Ying and we regret it. (later will tell you why) It was fun and quite challenging going up Broga Hill with all those big rocks that we had to climb on using ropes that are tied to the giant rocks. Some of us are scared of heights, so there took some time to really settle everything down. I won't disclosed who is the person but she really brave to even take the first step and try. Haha. Once we reach the top, the first thing we do is... EAT! We are so thankful that Ying Ying actually reminded us to bring some food or snack along just in case we are hungry! And yup, she is definitely correct this time. All the food we put inside my bag is gone within 15 mins. When we done with our stomach, then we continue for photo taking session. After chilling awhile and enjoy the top mountain view, we start packing up and head back down to our vehicles.

Overall, all our sweat and tears pay off. We able to enjoy the wonderful scenery of KL. At the same time, we enjoy each others company as well. If is not because of Jaochim, I don't think I will be out here and enjoy this wonderful moment with these bunch of awesome friends.
