We thankfully didn't miss the plane after going to the wrong airport and the guy who took us there was just getting extra money and not robbing us so all was well! Jakarta was strange because there was absolutely nothing to do and the backpacker area was just one street and that seemed to be it. We expected more from a big city, but there was a Starbucks so we were happy for a while! We just caught up on emails there and planned everywhere we were going to go i...

Ok we haven't got much to write about for Malaysia because we weren't here that long and were just passing through. We passed the Thailand/Malaysian border with minimal effort which was nice for a change and headed to a place called Georgetown. It was really nice here and it had a Dutch colonial fort which was good to explore (and mess around a bit!). The hostel was awful after where we had just been staying in Thailand and the rooms were just sectioned off wit...

Hi everyone! Well....i think we deserve a round of applause for catching up with the blog completely yeyy!

Hey all!These entries are a bit out of date as we are in Thailand now, but i will try and catch up with them all.We left Vietnam and crossed the border from Saigon to Phnom Penh and immediately noticed the dramatic differences between the two countries. Usually you expect the transition to be slow and become evident once you reach the cities, but the poverty here was very evident. There were shanty towns and extremely poor people on the streets as we drove past. ...
