Discovering Gopeng

So far, we’ve seen the pictorial journey of Team Merapoh from the American School of Doha. Here’s Team Gopeng’s story told in pictures.

Heigh ho! Heading out on the hike to the campsite.

Crossing the steel bridge at the beginning of the hike.

Listening to Abang Tim talking about the bamboo tree along the hike.

Peekaboo. Some of the indigenous kids we saw along our hike.

Looky here! A butterfly!

Whee! Some of us had to be carried across the river.

Walking through the lush  greenery on the final stretch of the hike.

And this is how you do it. Kakak Mel showing how to pitch the tents.


Catching small animals is a cinch. Abang Andrew showing us how to fix an animal trap in the wild.

Abang Evan teaching the kids how to read a compass during the orienteering session.

All smokey. Micah trying to start a fire, caveman style, one of the most important jungle survival skill.

Helping the locals preparing bamboo rice for dinner.

Look ma! The kids made their own breakfast.

Woo hoo! This was an awesome waterfall!

Yee Sang. Our very own Chinese New Year Eve dinner special.

Learning the art of Chinese calligraphy. One of the preparatory activities for the Chinese New Year.

They made new year decorations too!

The lion dance on Chinese New Year was awesome!

Here we go! Feeling the adrenaline rush during the White Water Rafting activity.

Team Gopeng, thank you for letting us share a bit of our world with you. It was an unforgettable experience for us as well.
