This is a top pick! ... by the Portuguese in the early 1500s, the Dutch in the 1600s, and was under British rule from the early 1800s until Malaysia was returned mid-Twentieth Century. The result is a place which reflects very much on its history, most evidently within ...
Back to City Life
This is a top pick! ... the 3 Musketeers ready for any adventure that comes our way. (As long as its in 5 star hotel style! Haha..jk) Thailand and Malaysia are amazing. But it's the little things like the inside jokes, silly games, and lots of shared laughs that have really made ...

This is a top pick! Wed Sep 8 - Day 126 After checking out of the Mayfair we took a taxi to the Crystal Quest Jetty. From here a small boat powered by 2 huge Yamaha outboard motor torpedoed the 40k to Pulau Selingan, one of the three islands making up the Turtle Islands ...
Sensational snorkelling and strange animals!
This is a top pick! We caught a fast boat to Perhentian Kecil, the smaller of the two main Perhentian Islands, where we were faced with a choice of beaches to be dropped at - we chose D'Lagoon, a guesthouse all by itself at the northern end of the island, rignt on the water ...

Putrajaya
This is a top pick! ... corrupt construction projects. But that was just an impression. I have no idea what causes the discrepancy, and I'm sure Malaysia has as much trouble with corruption as the rest of SE Asia. The coolest part of Putrajaya was watching ...
Kota Kinabalu: market down as a nice town!
This is a top pick! We loved Kota Kinabula, especially the general vibe of the place and the friendly locals, and this showed by the amount of times we ended up there (4 in total!) during our time in Sabah. With all its hidden treasures and plentiful markets (as well as ...
Addicted to underwater photography!
This is a top pick! ... to get to the coast and cool down! Quite a few folks along the way had recommended Pulau Tioman, off the east coast of Malaysia, as a relaxing island with some good dive spots, so it seemed like the obvious choice for our next stop (before flying to ...
Kuala Lumpur touring

First stop - KL!
This is a top pick! Just arrived in KL this morning to a spectacular sunrise as the plane landed. Having negotiated my way from the airport to central KL via a coach and mini-bus (RM20 in total) I have checked back into the Anuja Backpackers Inn (RM10 per night) opposite ...

This is a top pick! So today is the day we fly to Borneo. We are up about 9 ish and head off to get a good breakfast inside us. Since it's our last day in BK we thought we'd try some where new; big mistake!! Our breakfast had just arrived (scrambled egg for Rosey & ...

Days 133 and 134
This is a top pick! The last two days have been a bit of a non-event. Was hungover much of Wednesday after our little excursion in to KL's night-life. I bought a playstation portable or PSP for the hi-tech kids. It was a bit of an impulse purchase and now I'm a bit paranoid ...
A reunion with old friends
This is a top pick! ... non-stop during the journey and whilst driving he whips out leaflets and brochures on all the different tourist attractions of Malaysia. The butterfly farm takes some effort to get to but we really enjoy seeing so many butterflies which flutter around ...
The mountainous climb
This is a top pick! For a very cheap train train and free entrance a trip to the Batu Caves is very worthwhile. They are located on the outskirts of KL. In my opinion the caves are a definite must see while in KL just to either see the golden structure of Lord Murugan ...
KL second instalment
This is a top pick! Just a short entry as we've been quite lazy again in KL - i think it must be the home comforts like a sofa and a television in our hostel! We did however manage to make it up the KL tower for some fantastic views of the city, and as an added bonus ...
Penang
This is a top pick! Penang has a reputation as a great place for shopping and eating. The shopping there is questionable, Needless to say eating was higher on the priority list (check out how many photos there are of us with some form of food in front of us! -- they have ...

This is a top pick! Caught the boat early this morning to Kota Kinabalu, the provincial capital of Sabah. Only a short 3 hour crossing to mainland Borneo. Decided to stay in a plush hotel tonight, haven't treated myself for quite a while, so I thought why not. Checked in ...
Malaysia - Kota Bharu
This is a top pick! ... although most locals continued to watch from behind the scenes. We got talking to two older ladies from the UK who were in Malaysia on a month-long holiday. They were very adventurous women who had been to many places in Malaysia on their travels and even ...
A Night at the Petronas Towers
This is a top pick! The Petronas Twin Towers are the most amazing modern structure I've ever seen. They look unreal as they rise impossibly into the night sky and glimmer like a Star Wars battle station. There also impressive during the day, but the night view ...
Football's coming home...
This is a top pick! Malaysians are mad about football, and three English clubs are cashing in this weekend with a playoff in the capitol. Birmingham, Chelsea, Newcastle and the Malaysian national team are playing four matches over the next few days culminating in a final ...
Chaos in KL
This is a top pick! Last night downtown KL suffered a power cut that sunk a few blocks of the city (running from the Puduraya bus terminal to Chinatown) into complete darkness. I was in Anujas at the time and thought that it was just the hostel that had been affected. On ...
Toys
This is a top pick! Penang cannot be done in 2 days. Fact. This place does deserve so much more time dedicated to it. Personally I think back to big cities we have visited where we have wasted away time not really doing anything (Kunming and Bangkok come immediately to ...
Foodie's Journal
This is a top pick! ... reason for the late entry is that I need to recommend a great food tour which was the last thing that I did on my trip to Malaysia which was a food tour which is run by 3 local guys that are looking to show tourists off the beaten track by taking you to ...
Kuching (Sarawak, Borneo) - Day 151-152
This is a top pick! Day 151 - 22/07/08 After the yesterday's disaster, managed to catch my flight this morning to Kuching in Borneo, thankfully! I'm now in the land of the head-hunters. When I say head-hunters I don't mean this in a corporate recruitment sense (I'm ...
Perhentian Islands Part 2
This is a top pick! Sun 21 Jul - Day 84 The sky cleared at 6.30am. I was bored of sitting still, so I cleared some litter off the beach then took some photos as the sun appeared on the horizon. The people leaving caught the 8am boat, enabling us to move into our tiny A ...
