    Blog: ContemporaryNomad - 27 March 2011

  6. Why I Don’t Love Langkawi

    Blog: ContemporaryNomad - 20 March 2011

    For 98% of humanity, Langkawi would represent paradise on earth. What’s not to love: tropical beaches, soaring karst mountains, emerald waters? What’s the problem? Langkawi is beautiful, there’s no doubt about it. I can enjoy a nice drink in a relaxed beach-side bar as much as anyone. But when beaches are backed with nothing BUT [...]

  11. Malaysia by boat: Pulau Langkawi and Penang

    Blog: 12FOOT3 - 9 February 2009

    While we were in Ton Sai, we had a couple of really delicious dishes (Penang and Mussaman curries) that we learned were of Malaysian origin. Southern Thailand borders Peninsular Malaysia, so there is a lot of Malay food in Thailand and vice versa. Since Ko Lipe is so close to Malaysia already, we decided to [...]
