Blogs from Pulau Langkawi, Kedah & Perlis, Malaysia, Asia - page 9

We have moved onto another Island and to be honest the lifestyle lives on just the same, getting up late, going to the end of our block to get onto the beach, which takes a whole 30 seconds, we then just hang out, go Parasailing, and rent jet-skis and mince around for most of the day. The fact that we are now in Malaysia has not really changed thing for us, though the cost of beer is higher and more of the women are covered up... The trip over was fine, the usual bus, jeep, boat and then as i got off the boat the stubed my other big toe, so i now have one thats backened from Sri Lanka and the other one blackened from Malaysia...well i guess they both match. I also also ... read more

Greetings! You are reaching us here today on the Malaysian island of Langkawi, near the Thai border. Like Tioman, it's a duty free island, but as we actually don't drink much nowadays, and neither of us smoke, at least we can get er.... cheap perfume?! It's a lot more built up than we imagined but has a nice, relaxed feel to it, and a nice beach where we are staying. It's nice coming back to Malayisa, its comforting to be familiar with the food, (Thai food was uber tasty though!), bits of the language, stuff like that. We're hoping to hire a moped (cheaper than two normal bikes!) tomorrow and have an explore round the island. Today so far we have just had a beach day (something we haven't really done since Bali!) and had some ... read more

A refreshing break from the hustle bustle of the city into the lap of the tropical paradise, still falling short for words to describe Langkawi. The outstanding natural landscapes of Pulau Langkawi truly proclaims it a true tropical paradise. Besides its whites sandy beaches and limestone hills, its lush vegetation filled with exotic flora and fauna would attract natural lovers. I stayed in Sheraton Langkawi, which is a short drive from the Langkawi International Airport, and is spread over lush tropical greenery along with private beach coves. This makes Sheraton the perfect place to seek tranquility and relaxation. I had a chauffeur driven Mercedes and an incredible tour guide who made this journey even more beautiful. I hope he didn't land up in trouble for driving me around longer than what I paid for. A visit ... read more

Samir's article. Don't get me started with all that legal visa stuff, but let's just say we somehow wound up in Malaysia. We first took a roach-infested ferry to an island called Penang, and watched Spider-man 3 on the boat ride (what do you mean it just came out in theaters!?) We stayed at a hotel near Chinatown, so if you walked past shops you could see roasted ducks with their heads still on. After spending 3 or 4 days eating and sleeping, we finally decided not to treat Malaysia like a pit stop before India (which we will also treat like a pit stop before Turkey) and went to see a movie and go bowling. After we went bowling, I accidently fell up to my knees in mud chasing some monitor lizards. After Penang, ... read more
