Following masses of preperation my trip of a lifetime was finally a reality. Beginning in the adventurous New Zealand, before taking in delights of Australia over Christmas. Bali was next on the agenda, trading in the comfort of the West for drastic cultural differences of East Asia. The modern city of Singapore next acted as a stepping stone for travel over-land through Malaysia and island-hopping around Thailand. My Adventure finally ended amongst the neon scyscrapers of Hong Kong.

Malaysia: Cameron Highlands

Travelogue-Specials:

We left KL on a Super VIP bus (individual, wooden lines seats, WOW!) heading for the dizzy heights of the Cameron Highlands, over 3,500 feet above sea level. Positioned on a hill station, the temperature was particularly cool here, reaching a maximum of 20 degrees. Whilst in the highlands we had time for a jungle trek (included drinking bamboo water) viewing the worlds largest flower, a nice waterfall, an aboriginal camp, a pineapple growing region, and a tea/ coffee plantation. The hostel here was also very friendly and the venue for some serious beer drinking whilst watching Man Utd v Spurs.
