The recommended place after lunch is Angkor wat, the premier time for coming out of Angkor Wat is about 2-3pm, when the light for pictures will be PERFECT and you’ll get the picture postcard of Angkor reflected in the lake in front of the temple. Angkor Wat of course is THE most famous temple in […]

Cambodia Day 2 – Itinerary – Morning in Angkor Thom and Bayon
There is a common 3 day tour that I opted for after reading all the available info and chatting with some people in Cambodia. We mixed it and matched it with a few options, and I ended up with something REALLY good, if you ask me 😉 Also try and pick up the FREE Canby […]
Cambodia Day 1 – Leaving on a Jet Plane to Siem Reap
So I decided before my Mom came, to take her on a little trip, seen as though she’s flown half way around the world to get here, I was looking at the Malaysia islands like Langkawi…then I saw Air Asia was flying to a bunch of new places, one being Siem Reap..although I had no […]
Moms Trip – Day 3 – A Trip to Genting Highlands
Well day 3 came and it was a Sunday, so there wasn’t much options on what to do. So I decided on a trip up to Genting, the weather was decent and it’s pretty nearby, so why not. It was pretty cloudy when we got up there, but cleared up as the day went on, […]
Moms Trip – Day 1 – Visiting the National History Museum – Kuala Lumpur Malaysia
Also known as Muzium Sejarah Nasional. I wonder how many KL-ites know this exists? (Not THAT many I’d guess) I also wonder how many KL-ites have been there (A handful perhaps) I discovered this by accident aswell, not really well publicised I’d say, school kids should go there, Malaysia Tourism should promote it, it’s a […]
Moms Trip – Day 1 – A Trip to Dataran Merdeka
So after a hearty lunch of Banana Leaf Rice at Kanna in Bandar Menjalara, we headed off into KL for a little walkabout. Dataran Merdeka was formerly known as the Selangor Club Padang, and was originally the cricket green of the Selangor Club (now Royal Selangor Club). It was here, in front of the Sultan […]
The Jungle Trekking Tomb Raider Returns

Penang Asam Laksa and Satay Cina (Pork)
There is another massive foodcourt on the way out of town towards Batu Feringgi where a lot of locals go, on a busy evening it’s *very* hard to find parking. It’s just a whole bunch of stalls with seating provided by the stalls selling drinks, there are multiple stalls selling Laksa, Rojak and all the […]
Famous Char Kway Teow, Ais Kacang and Popiah
So mostly I went to Penang to eat all the wicked stuff there, as you’ve probably noticed and I drove there this time so I was free to roam around, I chose not to get a local to show me around as I know quite a few places myself and I have more fun using […]
My Trip to Penang – Char Kway Teow & Hokkien Mee
So a while before I came to Brunei, I took a small trip to Penang, to get out of the city, away from the traffic and see a bit of nice scenery (and eat loads of nice food of course). So I drove down, the traffic wasn’t too bad, and arrived during fairly nice weather. […]
