I told myself as I started the morning that I would definitely eat breakfast at one of the eateries I passed by going to Pantai. On the bus I got to ride with Aileen's Bangaladeshi neighbor, Milat. He offered to join me for breakfast but was so reluctant that I wanted to try food at the local areas…

The last day. Liena took us for breakfast. Then, she and Fran took me to KL Sentral before they go to Genting Highland. It was time for me to go home :-(

This city has history of occupation from original Malay settlers to Chinese invaders to Portuguese to Dutch then British. Rightfully so, the city is a tapestry of culture displayed on the churches, ruins and food. The city is too colorful and if you don't believe me, check out the flamboyant tricy…

Rasa Sayang is a traditional folk song in Malaysia, translates to 'lovely feeling', this blog is a collection of thoughts of what make my home, Malaysia, my love..

          I think that this is the place in KL where all races meet. Today, I noticed that there were not too many people on the streets and I thought that since it's Ramadan, most  people would rather  stay at home on …

I was woken up at 4 am by that stupid twat snoring again but I managed to get a toilet roll and throw it at him to disturb him.As you probably know im not very good when people make noise in dorms.I used to be in the navy and if you made noise in those dorms you got punched.Clearly I wasn’t going…

After the last time in KL, we really felt like something was missing as we never saw the Petronas Towers up front despite the lovely Elva asking to go swimming in the fountains constantly... We had unfinished business and this time..... this time it was personal..... As people always say, if you …

  On Pangkor Island, there are 2 beaches here that are famous for swimming - Pasir Bogak and Teluk Nipah. Pasir Bogak is a 10 minute drive from the jetty . At Pasir Bogak, you’ll find several sea food restaurants - the butter prawns are to die for and the prices are quite reasonable.…

On our final day in Malaysia, we hired a driver for the afternoon to take us to Putrajaya.   Before we left, however, we went to inside the Petronas Twin Towers.  Because we were there during Ramadan, the skywalk was closed, and we couldn't go up; but we did walk around the main…

The alarm was set for 7:30.  I was listening to Lonely Planet and arriving at the Petronas Towers at 8:30 to get tickets for later in the day.  Everything was all planned.  I would get the tickets, go up to the Towers and then head to Batu Caves in the afternoon.  Everything was…

                                   Thanks to Yanti(YantiSoeparno),despite of a quick KL stopover for us and the Ramadan,we were 1…

I went back to  the guesthouse to rest at around 4 pm. Few minutes later, Jorrit texted and  told me that he, JeAr, and Hanie were already in town. He met me later at Anjung then together with JeAr, Hanie, and Joest, we went to  Starbucks Pavilion for the  TB Meet-up meeting pla…

I had a few touristy things on the list for today, but once again, we had trouble leaving the hotel (we had breakfast, lunch, and dinner there, dammit! The food was delicious and FREE in the Royal Club room, so what can I say). After breakfast we did the morning workout routine, then I spent the mo…

04/08/09   I checked out and left Georgetown with happy memories.  I caught the ferry bound for Butterworth and immediately a bus to Kuala Lumpur.  I was pleased I’d get to the capital with a little bit of time for a final look around.  I got there early in the evening and f…

      Kuala Lumpur Bird Garden.       Only 10 minutes from the city centre by car.  The park was established in 1991 and was officially opened by the Her Majesty the Queen of Malaysia, Tunku Bainun.     Located in the serene and scenic Lake Gar…
