Android – installing apps
Oct 12
Picking up from the last post, I’d share a little more of my Android experience. Once I had configured the phone with my basic settings – voicemail number, wifi networks and so on – and moving my contacts to the phone, installing software is probably the next step.

Flying in from Brunei, the final stop on the GAP trip was Kuala Lumpur.

Next morning we left early for Mount Kinabalu, and stayed a night at a hotel high up and with a stunning view of the mountain. Venturing down again, we found our way to Kinabatangan and explored rivers [...]
