Places to Go


If only i had a buckets of money, i would most probably indulge the travel bug in me. Tried to go as many places as i could with what little money i have. I'm one of those who probably won't mind shabby huts and dirty facilities, so long as i accomplish seeing and experiencing what i set out before i embark on a journey. it's the experience that counts, not the fancy hotel you stay in.

I've made it a point to see more of Malaysia. I realize that i've been to TOO few places in Malaysia. Thanks to Gallivanter and Cely, i went to revisit PD, Melaka, Bukit Tinggi and the next trip probably to Gua Senyum. One of the places that i've always wanted to go was Taman Negara. Seriously.

Am also not into the citylike places. If you ask me, i wouldn't want to live in a city anymore. The hustle and bustle is great but afterawhile everything just seems so phony that you just wanna go to a hideaway and stay there. indulge in fresh air with kopi-o on the side. yar..the nescafe kopi-o and not the starbucks coffee of the day. The big cities that i've been to, even if it's in asia or US or Canada, they all give you the same feeling. Lost. Busy. Crowded. Noisy. Rushed. Paranoid. SO, yeah, staying away from big cities this year.

Give me a historical haunt anytime. Am blessed to have seen Angkor Wat last year and Vietnam this year. one thing about asia is that we are still very much culturally-inclined which makes the experience all the more worthwhile. so...next is Borobudur Temple in Solo, Indonesia. hoping to go sometime in sept/oct. maybe i have a thing for temples...who knows.
