Hiya :) Left the gorgeous Cameron Higlands for a warmer place. Went to Penang for a day or so but it wasn't really my scene so I left earlier than intended and came to the Island of Langkawi for some sun, sea and sand. I think I've been moving around Asia at such a fast pace it's going to do me some good to stay here for a few days and rest a little before I head to Oz. Langkawi is lovely - white sands, clear waters. Incerdibly I bumped into the guid...

We are in the mountains of Central Malaysia, Cameron Highlands which is known for growing strawberries, tea, fruits, vegetables, flowers & honey farms. It is positively cold up here, and the mist swirls around the hills and valleys a bit like England. There's even Tudor arcitechture and English food on the menus which is a huge disappointment when you're looking forward to a 'real' cream tea! We are staying in an old French monastery, built by the French Fo...

Had to leave the KL photo where it is again as I still can't upload my photos - sorreee. In Cameron Highlands now, staying in an old monastary.

She recommended this hostel to me and her description of the place is as good as anyone can describe it - Bobby if y...

Hi All Still haven't got near a facility to upload photos and I couldn't find one on the web that has anything to do with Tamen Negara so I'll leave KL there for now. After a long bus journey and then a boat journey I've arrived in the oldest jungle in the world. It's monsoon season here and up until the day before I got here there had been flooding etc but it's not too bad now. This is a beautiful place but my experience of it has been a bit tainted ...

Hiya! Hope everybody is a-ok back home. I'm feeling great at the minute. I think something in me a clicked into place and I'm not feeling the same anxieties/fears of the unknown that I had in Thailand. I've spent the last couple of days ambling about KL and trying to stick to some sort of budget so I can at least eat when I get to Oz. Had a great night out with a Canadian girl I met last night. Would you believe that in the heart of cosmopolitan Mal...
