Hello, It's 6:01pm and I'm off out for dinner. I'm currently in a taxi with a Malaysian man called Tan Joo Chye and we have just laughed about being Tom and Tan! Haha! Today I woke up early to travel down from the hills to Penang, an island off the north west coast. The journey took about 5 hours and whilst I slept most of the way the parts of the country I did see annoyed me. Again there was rubbish everywhere and the people seemed to not care! As we drove a...

Good evening, Today (Sunday) is day 9 of my adventure and marks the first day that it has taken me until 11:36pm to write my blog. Usually I write it through the day but today has just been too jam packed! As I lie in bed, the heavens have opened and the rainforest is living up to it's name!

Hello! As I write I am currently sat in a long boat cruising up the river to Taman Negara. The boat is around 20 metres long, is wide enough for people to sit in twos all the way from the front to the back and the whole boat sits around 6 inches off the river.

We will see if it is just as comfy in 2 more hours! ...

Good morning! As I sit eating breakfast looking out to sea the heavens have opened, the skies are grey and the sea is as rough as I have seen it. Oh no! It's 8:27am and my flight from Tekek is due to leave at 10am! It's going to be a tough day I think! Thankfully as I look to the horizon the sky is brighter and is improving every minute. Hopefully there is enough time between now and when I fly for it to pass! I don't want to be stranded here in this weather! ...

Hello, I am currently sat on a bench waiting for a guy to return with the key for a scooter I am going to rent for the day. This morning I woke up to the sound of gentle waves hitting the rocks below my room and decided to open another letter from Tara, she really is the cutest person I know! As I lay reading the 'story' in bed I had a huge smile on my face and again it reminded me how good the past 2 months have been. After breakfast I got my things organis...
