So it has been a little over a week on the road, Day 9 to be exact, and I've traveled to 6 different places - Singapore, Johor Bahru, Kluang, Melaka, Kuala Lumpur and now Penang. I've been feeling a little road weary, feeling like I've been on the road for way more than 9 days and now that I'm looking back to how many places I've been to these f...

The religions in this world would not be so if they were without some redeeming quality. Why believe in something without the power of forgiveness? Everybody makes mistakes and to think yourself as doomed once one is made would plunge all believers into a 'whats the point' mentality making religion itself obsolete. Christianity has confession, I...

We spent a week here in penang, we were originaly sorting out our Indonesian visas, but that fizzled away as we changed our plans. None the less we had a very enjoyable week here, sampling foods, seeing sights and shoping.

On our arrival we were dropped at a hotel (as always) called Banana, where you could get a room with shared bathroo...

I was a late bloomer: socially awkward, overweight and nerdy, terrible at forming new friendships or maintaining casual acquaintances. Aside from Karate after school and one friend in my neighborhood, my circle of best friends in high school constituted pretty much my entire social life for 6 years:

Our first expirence of Malaysia and a good one at that, people actually speak the same language as you which was a nice surprise after 3 months of confusion on both sides.

on the day we spent there we went to the big temple on the island, many of you will recognise the photos as we unknowingly stumbled into the same one as laura and ro...

It was an early start on the morning we were headed to Penang. Our alarm went off at 5am as we had a taxi to catch at 6am. It took all of our strength to get out of bed. Why were we leaving this beautiful island? Why don't we just stay here forever? But NO! Adventure calls!

We had another long journey ahead of us (due to arrive in to Pe...

Well this was more like civilisation. Cars, traffic lights, sky scrapers - we even had a bottle of French wine at dinner!



We had realised earlier in the day that today represented the 7th anniversary of us being together. To mark the occasion we set out to the BayView Hotel, which has a revolving restaurant on its top f...

Hi there,

After my short stay in Cameron Higlands where I spent some time treking through the jungle and enjoying some cold weather (thanks good!) I just headed to Penang, It would be hard to explain how penang is as I didnīt do much of the turistic stuff, I just chilled out and started planning my move to Indoneisia... I didnīt even ta...

After our not so great evening in Ipoh, we got an early bus to Penang. Penang is a small island off the coast of Malaysia which was an early British outpost for the East India Company. There are a lot of colonial buildings, as well as temples, mosques and churches to see.
Anyway, we had decided back in the UK, to book the Eastern and Oriental...

So we had a nice
relaxing morning today with a bit of a sleep in and some book
reading. Kayla has a bit of a cold so with any luck some rest will be
good for her. We eventually got up and headed off in search of some
breakfast (well it was really lunch by this stage). The chinese cafe
we went to yesterday was still ...
