Mantra Prawn

We still have no idea what 'Mantra Prawn' means, but this guy, Awai, would say it every time he saw us - we think it means something like 'enjoy'. We nicknamed him landshark...

Richard and Niels

Richard, our new friend from Penang and Niels from Sweden on his last night of a 9 month journey. Hanging out at Evo and Maria's.

Evo and Maria

---

We met this lovely couple Evo from Czech Republic and Maria from Spain. They were riding bikes across southeast asia and had been staying on Tioman for about a month. Their place was absolutely gorgeous with an amazing view of the bay. They invited us over for dinner one night - we ate delicious veg and Malay food off of banana leaves.

Peter and Helen

Peter and Helen are a total inspiration! They have been traveling for over a year and have no plans to stop.

Tyler and Eric

Tyler from Canada and Eric from France playing some songs at our going away bonfire party number 1. Of course, we didn't actually manage to leave the next day, so we had a mellower going away party 2 the next night.

Hard saying goodbye to Tioman, but we had been there for 2 1/2 weeks and it was about time to get back on the road again.
