Goodbye jungle
Time to leave the jungle and caves behind. I waited around until 3pm for another 30 minute flight back to Miri.
My carbon footprint recently has gotten rather large. In the past two weeks alone I have taken 8 flights, spending 32 hours flying. No more flights for maybe a few weeks now at least!!!
Miri is the border town to reach …
Musings on Malaysia by Judith
We have been in Malaysia (both Peninsula Malaysia and Borneo, otherwise known as West and East Malaysia respectively) for over a month now. Neither have been anything like we imagined, so we thought we would record some of our impressions.
Groups are the norm for Malays. Eating, shopping and tourism all appear to be done in groups, some …
Finally, Like Being Blind
Went downstairs for 9am. The 'taxi driver' was in fact almost certainly the husband of the woman from the hostel. It was costing 60 RNG to go about an hour and a half away, which considering bus prices is alot, but given we have done virtually nothing in Borneo yet it was a necessity. The bloke asked us where we were from and when we said …
Bus. Welsh. Food
Bought tickets for the 9am bus and got on and set off, no hassle today. Stopped at a services bought 3 curry puffs and a hotdog stick. Curry puffs are class, little cornish pasty things with curried potato in them. Watched the end of Mr Ripley, played some car game app, listened to Adam & Joe and slept.
Arrived at about 3 or …
Joys of Travel: Getting stuck in the wrong place
Greetings from Miri, Sarawak-
For most travelers I suspect, Miri is just the place you catch the bus or the plane
to go somewhere else. Sorta' like the Midland/Odessa airport.
But traveling, sometimes you get stuck.
I'm stuck.
I will be a resident here at the quite nice Dillenia Guest House for the entire

The gusethouse is located in a nice area in MIRI, very close to all the cafes and bars around Imperial Hotel, and 10 mins walk to the clubs here - is you're into that sort of thing.
The rooms are spacious, clean and brightly decorated, however, none are en-suite, and there is no TV either - for the price 80Rms you'd expect this as standard.
Saying that, there is a TV, DVD in the lounge area and 2 PCs, and all amenities are in good working order and very clean too.
There is a light breakfast on offer in the mornings (toast, and several types of local and imported tea and coffee on offer) this is included in the price.
Mrs Lee, who runs the place offers a lot of advice on what there is to do in MIRI, it's surrounding areas and things to do in other regions in Sarawak, she can also book things for a fairly reasonable price, if you are short on time - but if you have more than a week, I'd suggest you look around, as there are more things to see and do here than she seems to know about, all for a better price!

I saw this hotel in LP and decided to enquire about accommodation. It is a great place - really clean, good facilities, breakfast included fresh fruit, toast, jams or marmalade, fresh coffee and different teas - free wi-fi and internet. I would highly recommend this place - it has a great feel about it.
