Malaysia (continued): Three People, Two Islands

April 1, 2013Filed in: Destinations by Tara Shubbuck

View of Pulau Perhentian

Our next stop was Penang, or Pulau Pinang in Bahasa Malaysia, the country’s official language (pulau means island). Before arriving, I read in Lonely Planet something along the lines of: People go to Penang to eat. They think they go for another reason, but they’ll soon realize they’ve gone to Penang for the food. Naturally, Read Post

Malaysia: Eating Our Way Through the South

March 29, 2013Filed in: Destinations by Tara Shubbuck

Baba Laksa in Melaka, Malaysia

Malaysia was never really on our itinerary. For that matter, Singapore wasn’t either. But before we were able to apply for our Indian visas, we had to purchase an onward flight out of India. We bought the cheapest one-way ticket we could find, which was to Singapore on Air Asia. The way we would continue Read Post

Video: Koh Phi Phi Fire Show, Thailand

Every night on Koh Phi Phi, an island in Southwest Thailand, guesthouses along the shore have fire shows. This is video from Apache Beach House, which has one of the best shows on the island. [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fal83BrHs2c]

Can You Drink the Water in…

March 24, 2013Filed in: Destinations, Travel Planning by Tara Shubbuck

Fruit and Water Bottle in Alappuzha, India

Sometimes we read the ones left behind in guesthouses, but mostly we look to the Internet for a few important answers. Before arriving in a new Read Post

March 20, 2013Filed in: Sponsored Guest Posts by Tara & Mike

Some holidaymakers have a clear idea of where they want to go, and will happily go back to the same place time after time. Others like to try somewhere new and enjoy a Read Post
