Kinabatangan River & Sepilok

MALAYSIA | Wednesday, 19 Mar 2014 | Views [310]

We arrived in Sepilok late with the bus dropping us off unceremoniously at the closest road junction several kilometers away from our accomodation. We were lucky to be picked up by a friendly local as we trudged down the road with our headlamps on. The ... Read more >

Tip of Borneo (Kudat)

MALAYSIA | Tuesday, 11 Mar 2014 | Views [293]

We left Kota Kinabalau and headed for Kudat by what can only described as either an ex military, or an ex convict bus posing as public transportation. Three hours of noise and  crunching gears went by extremely slowly until we finally reached Kudat.... Read more >

Mount Kinabalu

MALAYSIA | Thursday, 6 Mar 2014 | Views [1737] | Comments [2]

We briefly spent one night in KL in quite possibly the coldest hotel room ever (ducted airconditioning in an old hotel) resulting in us testing out our base layers earlier than expected, flying out to Malaysian Borneo first thing the next morning. Our ... Read more >

Cameron Highlands

MALAYSIA | Friday, 28 Feb 2014 | Views [298]

Surrounded by tea plantations, farms and jungle the Cameron Highlands was a perfect place to base ourselves for a few days. The highlands have lower temperatures than most of the country, which has been nice change from the heat and humidity; we even ... Read more >

Penang

MALAYSIA | Tuesday, 25 Feb 2014 | Views [262]

After intially being unsure of making it to Panang in one day we arrived in Georgetown, Penang's historic area and backpacker haunt. We managed to get a room in The Old Penang Guesthouse which is a preserved WW2 building with heaps of character and great ... Read more >


Phuket

THAILAND | Saturday, 22 Feb 2014 | Views [246]

We treated Phuket like a holiday, mainly relaxing in the pool, eating and taking time to reorganise ourselves after several days in the jungle. We were lucky to catch up with our friends Gemma and Darren who were over for their friends wedding and swapped ... Read more >

Khao Sok National Park

THAILAND | Friday, 21 Feb 2014 | Views [255]

Khao Sok National Park is everthing the islands aren't, calm, peaceful, and with a wider range of travelers (i.e not just young, beautiful and wanting to party). We spent our first few mornings waking to the sounds of monkeys, birds chirping and frogs ... Read more >

Back to Thailand - Ko Samui & Ko Pha Ngan

THAILAND | Thursday, 13 Feb 2014 | Views [195]

We left Battambang early heading for the Thai border near Poipet. As always as soon as we left the city the roads turned into, at best, a bumpy potholed mess and at worse lurching dirt roads with plenty of near misses to be had by our manic mini bus ... Read more >

Battambang

CAMBODIA | Saturday, 8 Feb 2014 | Views [308]

After yet another bumpy, fear inspiring (from our driver and other motorists) bus journey we entered Battambang, our final stop in our travels through Cambodia. Like Kampot, Battambang has a French Colonial feel and sits nicely beside a meandering river.... Read more >


Siem Reap

CAMBODIA | Saturday, 8 Feb 2014 | Views [302] | Comments [1]

There's not alot to say about Siem Reap apart from temples temples and more temples. In the heat we slogged through 2 full days (and mum and dad managed two and a half) and managed to see all the big hitters (Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom and Ta Prohm- the ... Read more >
