About

Nothing happier than traveling around the world, and meeting people and friends, while sharing my journeys and joyousness through my blog.

Traveling is my lifelong passion, even though I’m still stuck in my 9-to-6 employee life. *Correction* Should be 7-to-9 rat race trap. Here in Malaysia, if you work from 9 to 6 with a corporate firm, you will be seen as a slacker.

To escape from the rat race is my goal, to travel freely is my dream, to attract loyal readers to my travel blog is my inspiration. I’m setting up this blog as an initiative to move towards my dreams. Your visits, your comments and your contributions are essential to bring me closer to my dreams.

Where Have I Been:

Malaysia – My own country. I’m planning to visit all possible places in west Malaysia by June 2010.

Singapore – Hotels there are way too expensive.

Bangkok – Have been there a few times and still want to visit it again if I have a chance.

Jakarta – For business.

Laos – Love the nature, tranquility and spirituality of the country.

Bali Island – Love the beautiful culture.

Phuket Island – Love the sunshine and the crowds.

Sipadan Island – Diving Paradise! You should look at my diving photos and videos in the blog.

China – Shanghai, Hang Zhou, Su Zhou, Nan Jing, Jiu Zhai Gou.

Europe – Italy, Switzerland, Monaco, Vatican.

What I love about Malaysia:

Malaysia is rich in culture, heritage, and tropical rainforests. It’s a great place for those who love outdoor adventures. I have spent my weekends on all sorts of outdoor activities like hiking and trekking. I have conquered Tabur Hill, Broga Hill, Mount Datuk, Gasing Hill and several hills in west Malaysia. I have been to several parks just to explore the waterfalls. Cave exploration can be as fun as well, like Batu Caves, Gua Tempurung and so on.

There are a lot of beautiful beaches in Malaysia for those who love sunbathing and diving. I’ve been to Redang Island, Langkawi Island, Sipadan Island, Perhentian Island, and many more that are yet to be posted in my blog. It’s sad if I don’t complete my journeys in Malaysia before discovering the rest of the world.

What is my Next Big Plan:

To have a one month cycling trip or sailing trip to fully explore west Malaysia. To accomplish a comprehensive blog about Malaysia by 2010.

    Very lovely site. Was googling for Jonker Walk earlier. And amazing your site came up with nice simple info and photos. And then saw your Bali page / category. I love Bali and have been doing motorbike expeditions throughout half of the island now. Will be reading all your articles on Bali tonight. Enjoy your weekend – Den
