Hiking Bukit Besar, Setiu: Came for the View, Stayed for the Regret

They said “Let’s go for a light hike at Bukit Besar.”
I heard “light” and thought, sure — why not? BIG mistake.
5 minutes in: breathing like a buffalo. 🐃
10 minutes in: questioning all my life choices. 😩
At the top: worth it (but barely survived). 😂

But hey, the view from the top is amazing — if you can see it through the sweat in your eyes. 💦
And the best part? I burned just enough calories to justify a whole ayam penyet after. 🍗🔥

Bukit Besar: come for the hike, stay for the drama.
Would I do it again? … Maybe. With better stamina and less pride. 😅
