Kuching, or Cat City in English, there was plenty of rain but funnily enough no cats. (Except of course for the one that sounded like it was being dipped in acid at 5am outside the building where we stayed!) The final destination of our journey and were off to see the orangutans of Borneo. On the flight over, Andrea was sitting next to a palm oil investor which really hit home how threatened these amazing creatures are. (incidentally, this dude stopped talking to...

Only in Japan could you combine robots with toilets! That's a hell of a brainstorm in our book and we could write a whole blog on the features of their toilets - music choice, seat temperature, bum wash pressure; put a fridge and tv in there and Nathaniel would never leave.
