Hi Jacky, really interested in your post cos I live in the East Riding (Yorkshire) and have similar interests to you. I too have recently retired and wish to extensively travel whilst I am fit and able. Borneo wouldn't actually be on my wish list as I don't like it too hot but if you would like a travel buddy anywhere cooler please let me know

I spent several weeks in Borneo and connected with a very knowledgeable and culturally sensitive local named Alvin Danker who educated our group on the political and social issues abounding in his country as well as searching for orangutans and staying in a remote village with Indigenous villagers. It was a very memorable trip. I have done similar adventures in Namibia, Mongolia, Ethiopia, Thailand, Nepal, West Africa, Amazon and India. Let me know if I can give you information about any of these places. Have a great adventure!
