Daro

Exactly two years after I was supposed to be posted there, I finally set foot in Daro.

 

It immediately feels like ‘home’ because just like Mukah, they have a fish as a mascot.

 

The typical temple by the river, characteristic of all towns in Sarawak.

Rustic petrol station. Definitely not your usual Petronas or Shell station.

The famous one and only bank in Daro.

The town centre is a mix of old..

and new.

Drum-roll…. this is where I was ‘supposed’ to work - KK Daro.

And possibly I will go here too… this is Hospital Daro, which was painted in a brilliant shade of fushia pink.

Overall Daro was a quiet little town, slow paced (no coffee shop opens at 7am) with a really laid back feel to it. Its all relaxed and stressed free. But possibly not for long term stay =)
