Some (insane) individuals of #teamlunbawang and #teamtombonuo woke up extra early to complete a 5K run up and down the very steep bongkud hill. All made it to the top to witness the sun rise and down before breakfast @CampsInt @Mark_Rutherford @StJamesCheadle

After travelling to camp Tambunan, #teamlunbawang learnt to weave from Aunty with varying degrees of success, celebrated a birthday, enjoyed a cultural dance and had our team meeting. We are now looking forward to a day of project work tomorrow. @Mark_Rutherford @CampsInt

After #team lunbawang spent the evening sharing cultural dances, we were able to do some washing and then a day of project work. This entailed helping build drainage for the road and a toilet block for the community.

Both teams were together today, we visited the Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre, where we went to a viewing platform to see the Orangutans being fed. We then went to the Sun Bear Conservation Centre followed by a tree top walk spotting monkeys and birds. #campsinternational
