Travel and Photography | Why Do People Climb Mountains
© 2013 Wazari Wazir | View From The Summit of Mount Kinabalu | Low’s Peak Why do people climb mountains? Well, actually I don’t know why. But the most famous answer on why people climb mountains come from Sir George Mallory, one of the first people to try to summit Everest, he said, “Because It’s There”. But then, his answer is too simple to really answer the question “Why”? People climb mountains for a wide variety of a reason, some people climb because they need some kind of an adventure, something that will pump up their adrenaline, some people like to test their limit, some people just need to know how far…

Postcard From Langtang Nepal | Adventure is Out There
© 2012 Wazari Wazir | Photographer at Langtang National Park | Nepal “Do not burn yourself out. Be as I am-a reluctant enthusiast… a part time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it is still there. So get out there and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, encounter the grizz, climb the mountains. Run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate…

Travel and Photography | Postcard From Mount Kinabalu
© 2013 Wazari Wazir | Road Less Traveled at Mont Kinabalu | Borneo “All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God’s eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.” – John Muir – Tweet news and informationbusiness,health,entertainment,technology automotive,business,crime,health,life,politics,science,technology,travel

Travel Photography | Once Upon a Time in Kota Belud Sabah
© 2013 Wazari Wazir | Suspension Bridge at Kota Belud Sabah Against Mount Kinabalu I’ve always dreamed of taking this kind of a picture since I saw Mount Kinabalu few years ago. A photograph of a person crossing a suspension bridge with Mount Kinabalu in the background. Yes, there is a lot of suspension bridge crossing the river all across Sabah but finding the right one can be quite tricky since some of them can’t be seen from the main road. You need to look deeper. With the help of my Sabahan friends, Azman Jumat, Shukur Jahar and Rade Knoxville, finally I manage to get what I’m looking for. Even…
