2 days and 3 nights in Malaysia

After my amazing trip to Cambodia, my next stop was Malaysia! I flew from Siem Reap to Kuala Lumpur, ready for a 2-day, and 3-night experience. I spent the first night in KL, and even though it was just a short stay, it was super exciting. The city was alive with lights and energy Petronas Towers looked amazing at night.






The next morning I hopped on a bus to Malacca, and wow, I instantly loved the place's vibe. Everything in the city felt so close and easy to get to, making exploring fun without feeling rushed. I wandered through Jonker Walk, a street full of little shops, historic buildings, and food stalls that gave me a real taste of the city's history and culture.











One of the best parts of the trip was the boat ride along the Malacca River. The views were so cool, with colorful murals on the walls, and old buildings by the water, and I floated along with this peaceful feeling. It was a relaxing way to see the city differently.





After the boat ride, I chilled out with a happy hour, it felt great to just sit back and enjoy the evening. Dinner came next, and I got to try some of Malacca's famous dishes like chicken satay. 




It was the perfect way to end the day, and honestly, Malacca is a city I would love to visit again someday._kenny🖤

This year, I traveled to four Asian countries, but Cambodia stood out to me the most. The trip was a humbling experience for many reasons. first Cambodian beer I was deeply touched by the kindness of the Cambodian people. Their lives are simple, yet they radiate happiness. Their smiles and eagerness to help guests made me feel so welcome. with the tour guide, Sambo. One of the most memorable parts of my trip was a boat ride on Tonle Sap Lake (belonging to the Mekong River system). Tonle Sap is the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia. Having lunch at a floating restaurant was a unique experience and watching crocodiles being fed was both exciting and a bit scary. Visiting the temples in Cambodia felt like stepping back in time. Angkor Wat, one of the largest temples in the world, was truly impressive. However, the Ta Prohm temple left me amazed. Seeing the tree roots over the stones of the temple was unbelievable, like something out of the movie. Another unforgettable experience w...

The Famous Street Calle Crisologo in Vigan City

Image
Spontaneously, while talking with Yana over a video call, we decided to visit Vigan City after our Baguio trip.  We booked our ticket to Baguio last April, and the flight was in June. Originally, it should have been 4 nights in Baguio, but I suddenly mentioned to her that I wanted to see Vigan City and the famous Calle Crisologo, and of course, she wanted to visit the place as well. Calle Crisologo in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, is one of the most beautiful streets in the Philippines. It boasts centuries-old stone houses, lovely tungsten lamps, and antique cobblestone, where horse-drawn carriages or kalesas are still used for transport.   https://guidetothephilippines.ph/destinations-and-attractions/calle-crisologo Right after our trip to Baguio City, we decided to visit Vigan City in Ilocos Sur.

Trip to Baguio City

Image
Traveling with someone who matches your interests is fun and no pressure, just full of laughter and good times. I met Yana in 2019 when I enrolled in a short course. We became close friends and shared common interests. We discussed our desire to visit Baguio City. Personally, I like cool places, and Baguio comes to mind when I think of cool temperatures. When the pandemic happened and unexpected circumstances arose, this plan was postponed. This year, we finally made it to Baguio. It was a short but memorable trip. The first night was challenging, but the challenges were fun because we were in the right company. On our first day, we visited: Baguio Botanical Garden . For a peaceful and refreshing experience surrounded by nature, the Baguio Botanical Garden is an ideal destination, offering a serene environment with lush greenery, colorful blooms, and opportunities for photography and learning about diverse plant species and wildlife.
