Durian

As a local from Kuching, Malaysia, I have had a love affair with durian since I was young. Something so magical and unique about this fruit has captivated my heart and taste buds.

Growing up, I remember the sweet and pungent aroma of durian wafting through the air every time I walked past a street vendor. The sight of the prickly exterior and the promise of the creamy, rich flesh inside always left me eager to try a bite. And let me tell you, once I did, I was hooked.

Durian has a unique flavour that is difficult to describe but one that I find irresistible. Some describe it as a combination of sweet and savoury, while others say it’s like a mixture of almond and garlic. All I know is that once I taste it, I am transported to a place of pure bliss.

For me, durian is not just a fruit but a symbol of my childhood and heritage. It represents all the joys and memories of growing up in Kuching, and I am so grateful to have this connection to my roots.

In addition to its delicious taste, durian is also known for its health benefits. It is a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants and is said to boost energy levels and improve digestion.

As a musician, I am always on the go and need to care for my health. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a tasty treat that’s also good for you? That’s why I always stock up on durian whenever I’m back in Kuching.

Every time I bite into a juicy, ripe durian, I am filled with a sense of happiness and contentment. I feel so lucky to have grown up in a place where such a delicious fruit is abundant and cherished, and I know that my love for durian will always be a part of me.

Durian is much more than just a fruit to me. It is a symbol of my roots, my heritage, and my childhood memories. And most importantly, it is a delicious treat that brings joy and happiness to my life. I am truly grateful for this amazing fruit and the love it brings into my life.
