Sabadee, everybody! Been making my way down Laos. I've grown to really love this country. I feel like it's a country with a perfect balance of life. It's not "backwards" by any means but very simple. There aren't extremes of the rich and the poor. People seem to all live happily with a simple life. There aren't any slums but there are a lot of villages that farmers reside at. The best part about it is that they all use their money to buy a big satellite dish to watch TV! haha. Strange to see villages with huge satellite dishes. They [View Full Entry]

Sabadee! Travelling in beautiful Laos is a spiritual experience where nature and civilization seem to mold together into one. Luang Prabang is a simple town that is clean and has mountains in the backdrop. It's a tranquil setting that makes everybody feel peaceful. I love how it's not a tourist trap but more like a traveller's haven where there's a perfect balance of nature and civilization! Food is so delicious here and the culture is really rich. It reminds me of how Thailand used to be before all the tourists started swarming over. Peace and Love! Green Technology If there’s one [View Full Entry]

I had to come back to Taiwan for a little bit to let my body recover. Africa is not an easy place to travel for a solo traveler. It took a toll on my body so I decided to come back home and rest a bit before I head out again on my world journey. I want to dedicate this blog to all the travelers who haven’t been to Taiwan. I met many travelers on my journey and none of them have ever been to Taiwan. They’ve been all over Asia but overlooked Taiwan. I thought it’d be a good [View Full Entry]

Lei Ho! I'm in Hong Kong with Maggz and I'm getting ready to go to my next destination: Laos! We went to a crazy art exhibition the other day. We didn't understand a thing, haha, it was too... um.. smart for us? We came out of there like, "Huh?" We saw some weird stuff and we don't get it at all. It was fun to see how crazy and imaginative an artist's mind can get. Props to them for doing what they love though! My 23 flaws 1. I get so excited about eating food that I almost always make a [View Full Entry]

Tanzania! Africa » Tanzania » South » Songea
Tanzania! So I have made my way down to Tanzania from Kenya on a little bus! The road to get here was bumpy and merciless. When we reached the border, we had to get out of the bus and walk a 100 meters to the border patrol. Along the 100 meters were hundreds of scammers swarming all of us and trying to sell us fake goods. Be aware fellow travelers! Although Tanzania and Kenya have a very similar culture, Tanzania gave me a different vibe. The locals aren’t as friendly to travelers as Kenya. But don’t get me wrong, they’re still [View Full Entry]

Jambon from Kenya! I feel like I'm in the real part of Africa now. There's so much culture and soul in the country. It's a different way of life here and it's enlightening. It feels like I'm part of nature again instead of part of a human society. I got to dance with a tribe!Haha, I was way out of rhythm but it was fun. They also have this jumping competition that all the males do to impress the ladies. I wouldn't be able to impress anyone because they were jumping way higher than me. Something amazing happened the other day. [View Full Entry]

I am at a beautiful beach town at the southeast part of Madagascar. It feels like paradise to surf and have the mountains as the landscape around me. I've been here for 10 day already and feel like part of the community. I've been surfing, fishing and playing drums with the locals. I'm living such a simple life right now and I wake up as a happy man every day. Experiencing Simplicity Two of the earliest advices I remember as a kid were: 'Aim it straight when you're using the toilet' and K.I.S.S. which stood for 'Keep It Simple, Stupid'.

I made my way down to the very south of Madagascar! I feel like I was entering a whole new country the more south I went. The humid rainforests quickly became mountains and vast deserts! They have this tree called the Baoboab which I am a big fan of. It's like a chubby looking tree that everyone loves here. Then there was this beautiful lake with a waterfall behind it. I felt like I was in a dream. I'm having quite the adventure here! Mura mura everybody! It means 'take it easy' in Malagy. Yes! I'm Wrong! Being wrong isn't that [View Full Entry]

Salama! I am in the wonderful country of Madagascar where wildlife is abundant in the lushious green rainforest! It's very tough to get around because Madagascar is huge and the only means of transportation is the Taxi-Brousse. Basically, I have to wait 3 hours for the whole taxi van to fill up with people before we can go. Then we stop about 10 times before we reach our final destination which takes 10 hours. It's tough with all the flies and chicken in the van, but it's a hell of an experience! Luckily, I tagged along with an Irish husband and [View Full Entry]

Greetings from Africa! My journey has begun again and the 2nd part of it is going to take place in Africa. I've been to Africa before and ever since then, I always had the urge to come back. I'm in South Africa and people here are getting really excited for the 2010 World Cup! I went to the Apartheid Museum yesterday to learn about the history and it was very moving. Nelson Mandela was locked up for 27 years but it never crushed his dream of creating a South Africa where everybody was equal. He had a vision of South Africa [View Full Entry]
