travel buddies!

My first trip abroad: spectacular destination (check), plane ticket (check), pocket-money (check), accommodation (check), travel itinerary (check), travel mates (check, check, check, check)!!!!

Before jetting-off somewhere spectacular, every traveler has this in mind: I’M OFF TO HAVE THE TIME OF MY LIFE! Well, if you ain’t having fun or at least the epiphany you need, save your bucks, stay home, get your eyes puffy-happy!

Traveling is an opportunity to see yourself at your happiest, craziest, thriftiest, friendliest, cam-whoriest, etc…! Let me stress, that anywhere is a destination, when you’re with happy people!

Traveling can only get you so far, it’s the people your with that the makes the destination SPECTACULAR SPECTACULAR!

Nikki, Melanie and Pykeee…. As splendid as Singapore and Malaysia was…you put the exclamation points in those destinations!

Destination: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Our Malaysia sojourn was borne of the need to get my passport stamped as many times possible. We were trying to get bus seats en route to malaysia, unfortunately we were bound to suffer...Oh!the agony of a 24-hour train ride!The cheap fare rates we got for the train ride was no bargain...my patience was stretched ten times the length of the petronas tower. And if that wasn't enough torture, arriving at Petronas Tower the sign read: Close on Mondays! And it was freaking monday morning! But the GODs knowing we suffered enough during the train ride decided better! Mondays are regularly closed for the Petronas Tower except during holidays!and a holiday it was! The tower was everything I expected it to be...

The sordid details of the train ride won't stop me from coming back to malaysia...
