I went on a 24 day trip in july-august. It was an unforgettable trip. These were the highlights:
- The national parks and the amazing jungle of Borneo (only place in the world where there are living Oerang Oetangs in the wild). The most beautiful national park was Bako.
- Kuala Lumpur, a great city.
- Cameron Highlands, the mountains of Malaysia with colder temperatures (very welcome after 2 hot weeks). Amazing landscapes tea plantations. If you visit this place, try Daniel's Lodge (no luxuary, but an amazing atmosphere) and go on a jungle trip with Kali, a 64 year old guide nicknamed the Machine of the Jungle.
- The Perhentian Islands (located in the North-East of West-Malaysia). One of the most beautiful places on earth. I will never forget the 4 days I spent there. Great beaches, awesome atmosphere, not many tourists, clear blue water, great parties, ...
But of course, Malaysia has a lot more to offer
I'm planning on going to Costa Rica next summer ;)
