From Borneo I headed down to Singpore for a couple of nights. Brilliant, but incredible expensive city!! Unfortunately, because of the time of year, I had heavy tropical rain everyday, so I didn't go to the Zoo. I basically wondered round the huge shopping malls and the clarke quay area. Singapore has a wicked nightlife, but only if you're earning loads of money, so we just watched enviously from afar!! After buying some warm clothes in singapore I headed to...

I finally had to leave Thailand for good as my visa expired :-(. So I headed down to Kuala Lumpur on a 24 hr bus journey!! Kuala Lumpur was a bit of a shock at first after spending so long on the Thai Islands, but once I hit the shopping centers I soon loved the place!!

There were stunning, quiet beaches here if you hired a taxi boat to take you round the coast, or one ...

After Bangkok, I headed down to a little island called Koh Tao. Georgous island, really chilled with beautiful sandy white beaches and clear blue seas! Weather been spot on - no rain since I've been here!! The first week I was here I did my PADI Open Water dive course which was fantastic. I had a really good group of people I did it with and was even lucky enough to see a turtle. After I qualified we did some more fun dives before heading over to Koh Phanga...
