Our Travelogue....

Thank you for visiting our travelogue site....

My wife, Zarina and I are very fond of travelling. At this point most of our travels are within Malaysia. In the future, we would be planning to travel across countries outside of Malaysia though....

Malaysia itself has too much to offer. We ourself are not sure whether we can savour every bits and pieces that Malaysia can offer visitors local or foreign alike. What we wish to share in our travelogue are the experiences that we had while visiting many places within the country. We will try to briefly review places of interest that we have been to, hotels that we have stayed in and shopping experiences and local eateries and hope it would be a guide to would-be visitors.

Over the years we have been to many, many places but only now that we have decided to create a blog and venture into the world of blogging to share experiences of our travels and experiences together. Yes, we may not only touch on travels but both local and international issues that we think is worth mentioning our views and blogging about.

We welcome your comments or questions. Both of us will make every effort to give an unbiased views and answers to your comments. Whatever your views and comments would be, my wife and I truly hoped that our travelogue would benefit the travellers and visitors to Malaysia....

Thank you

Nazri & Zarina....

Morib Beach Daytrip.....

It was the Christmas holiday and we were having lunch at a food court in a hypermarket in Selayang when my wife suddenly said "Let's go to a beach !". Port Dickson automatically comes to mind as that is the nearest beach  from Kuala Lumpur. Wait, we're forgetting another beach which was about 86Km from where we were at. "Let's go there then...", said my wife and my son was excited as well. He has never been to Morib.

And so we set out to Morib at about 4pm.Going through DUKE highway, New Klang Valley Expressway, Kesas and the Klang -Banting road towards Morib Beach.  Having exited the highway, we continued our journey through the state road passing towns of Banting, Telok Panglima Garang, Telok Datok, Kanchong Darat etc. It was already about 5.30 pm when we finally reached the Morib Beach.

Pulau Langkawi Vacation 2010 - Part 1

We had been planning for this trip to the famous island of Langkawi for almost 4 months prior to the actual date of departure. When we first started planning the trip, we were contemplating on the mode of transport - should we go by land as per our previous travel or should we try flying to our destination. Then what would we want to do once we get there. We did a lot of reading on Langkawi and also browse through other's blogs. Since this was our first time to the island, we decided that we would visit interesting places on the island while throwing in a bit of shopping for duty free chocolates and some tablewares which is what Langkawi is famous for apart from it's mystical islands archipelago tourism industry.


A bit about Langkawi Island

Lying off the northwestern coast of Peninsular Malaysia in the state of Kedah, Pulau Langkawi is the largest among an archipelago of 99 islands collectively known as Langkawi. With only a small population of 54,000 in a land of 32,000 hectares, Langkawi is surrounded by beautiful turquoise sea with paddy fields and lush jungles cladding hills in the inland.
As mentioned earlier, the tourism industry seems to be the main economic activity of Langkawi island.
