It makes Singapore look expensive. But then it is filthy. I like it here. Stories to follow..

The next few days blurred into one. We spent a LOT of time on the net including an almost all nighter + whole afternoons trying to get this travel blog up and running & photos downloaded. Spent a whole wonderful day shopping in all the expensive places such as Tiffany's and tried to plan what we would do next. We decided to skip the jungle o...

Malaysia, a land of ready smiles and incredible contrasts beckons the visitors with a rich diversity of experiences. A charming, fascinating land of warm, friendly people. Here you get a taste of all of Asia in a single destination. The country's social, political and economic stability have ensured a well structured development. Malaysia today ...

My trip back from Kota Kinabalu is on Air Asia, a low-cost carrier serving South East Asia. While they have clearly modeled their business after Southwest Airlines, they have taken it to a whole new level! Their planes are brand new and, with their black leather seats and flight attendants in black and red, actually very stylish. Like SWA, you h...

Day 22 (Monday) - KUALA LUMPUR Returned to KL from Kota Bharu. Dropped off laundry at Dhoby Wallah's for a surprisingly good rate (RM2 for a shirt) although we weren't promised that the shirts could be ironed. Lunch at Delicious. GHKL in the afternoon. Greeted by Afif. Presentation to Mr Fazir, Mdm Razana Kamariah and about 5 MOs. Next was a sup...

To start, we had three hours to kill at the Jakarta airport (yeah, it was that bad and we preferred hanging out at the airport then roaming around the city). The airport has these machines that you can put your bags in, and it will seal the bags closed in seran wrap. This is so that no one can plant drugs on your bags, and then you land and get ...

The days are passing so quickly and the sun sets are getting longer and hotter Part of me crave a glass of cold white wine and a chicken sandwich on the balcony, some things are oddly Australian Have become a tourist of late, spun around the eye on malaysia, been held up by Rela and had RM500 worth of cocktails paid for by someone else But all o...

The Petrona Twin towers was a pretty cool thing to be able to see up in person, but we really didn't do too much touristy things while here. Mostly, we hung out by the pool, awesome fun!

Arriving in KL we stepped off the boiling bus and were greeted by the searing heat of down town. Kuala Lumpur is certainly very different to Singapore. The pace is faster, the smells, sounds and sights are much more intense. It hits you like a wave and it takes a few moments for you to regain your composure. The sheer volume of people and traffi...

Back to KL for two nights. We spent our final day in Kuala Lumpur dealing with fun logistics such as picking up our Indian visa. We had another fun night with our friends Pek, Richard, and Sharron. Gerald and Raulyn's has become a familiar, albeit out of the way, place to visit with friends over a wide selection of wines. After drinks, Pek and t...
