A lot of money can be spent whilst visiting a big city such as Kuala Lumpur. It’s hard to know where to go and what to do whilst sticking to a budget, even harder to find free things to do. However, I have done the hard work and put together this handy post on free things to do in Kuala Lumpur.
Whilst standing inside a cave, the smell of incense lingers from the Hindu temple to my right. A troop of monkeys linger on the cave wall to my left and the sun seeps into the cave from the hole in the roof. I’m just 13kms from the heart of Kuala Lumpur in the Batu Caves. Inside the Batu Cave is one of the most famous Hindu shrines outside of India.
High in the tree tops, I walked along the rope bridge being at one with nature. Through the gaps in the trees I could hear the birds tweeting, see the greenery of the leaves against the bright blue sky and the tops of skyscrapers. I’m in KL Forest Eco Park in the Heart of Kuala Lumpur in 9.3 hectares of forest where the rope walkways stretch between the trees.
Thailand is a bit like Marmite, either you love it or you hate it. I am the latter.
Now perhaps that is a little harsh. It’s not that I hate Thailand, I just feel that there are better places to go in Asia such as South Korea, Philippines and Burma. There are similarly stunning places in the world without the tourist traps of Thailand.
There are many forms of transport to getting around the Philippines. The good, the bad and the sheer hell on earth. Here I share my stories and pieces of advice about budget travelling and different forms of transport in the Philippines.
A house made of stone doesn’t sound like that much of a spectacular place, I have to admit. However, wait until you visit Luna’s Bahay na Bato, which in translation means ‘stone house’.
Built in Luna in La Union in the Philippines this really is a house and grounds, made of stone.
