In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight....... So today we leave Asia and are flying to Sydney. We have had about 24 hours in Singapore and I'm a bit gutted we didn't give it some more time. We arrived yesterday morning and headed to Chinatown to find somewhere to crash. Everywhere seemed sold out including a place called 'Pillows and Toast'. What more could you want right? We found somewhere opposite where they offered us an 8 bed dorm just be...

Paradise....... So our bus from Kuala Lumpur arrived in Kuala Besut, on the north east coat of Malaysia, at about 6.30am on Wednesday and we were instantly taken to the dock to catch a boat. Pete and I had no cash left so the guy that sold boat tickets drove us to a cash machine to get some. We bought tickets and jumped on board our boat which held about 10 of us.

The next day we got up quite late and went for a Chinese lunch. Really nice beef with black bean sauce. We dro...

Ok, this island may not actually exist. And even if it does, we might not be able to get there. But look at it like this; what else is there to do around here?............... So we are currently flying back to Kuala Lumpur (KL) having been to Koh Phi Phi. You're probably thinking we must really like KL because we keep going there but this time we're going to see the city and not just sit in transit like the previous couple of occasions. Anyway, for those of you...

No title because I didn't really do much (title recommendations more than welcome if something comes to mind from reading the blog) We arrived in Phuket a couple of nights ago, dropped our bags at our hotel room and headed out. Our hotel room was absolutely great. Air-con, comfy beds, fridge (with free water), tv, and a balcony (with an amazing view of the green and pink buildings opposite). I was feeling really sick though. On the flight over I was so close to ...
