Well this is the famous Dataran Lang at Pulau Langkawi. Yeah i went to langkawi the last school holidays. Took the coach or bus from Ipoh to Kuala Perlis since i did not fancy driving all the way.. Yeah MARA LINER is a good bus but can be improved. Well upon reaching the jetty got the tickets which are sold one way only. Make sure you keep the tickets if you are buying some hard liquor. This is because it will be inspected when you come back.
The journey to the island is nice and not so choppy. Upon reaching the jetty on the other side go to the taxi outlet. Well if you want a good cab driver call Mrs Suganthi or Sheila at  017-5167271. She is good and reliable and make sure you know your rate beforehand.Well i booked at Langkawi Seaview
/http://www.langkawiseaviewhotel.com/ppc/ Well it worked for me since i have been there for courses and like the friendly atmosphere there.

Well if you want to go there make sure u visit these places for sure :

Underwater World.. yeah located at Pantai Cenang it is a 30 minit drive from the Kuah Town but it was worth the drive. Love the various fishes found there.
Island Hopping is something that one should also not miss when visiting Pulau Langkawi. It is really amazing experience and worth it.

If you like indian food well the best place to eat would be Hotel Malaysia Restaurant it is opposite Langkawi Parade . Best indian food and really nice. Highly recommended by me :)

If you into massage then u need to head on to Sky Eagle Massage which I took since i was tired from walking and also need to pamper myself as well. Well the hp number is 012-5264174 or 04-9665955. Well it is worth the money paid and next to the best thing that is having the real thing in Thailand.

Well my stay was worth it since i visited the pasar malam oppostite Bayview Hotel. My ride was a mazda 323 which i had a good money for it and did not have any problems with it.

My advice for those who are going there,, book your hotel in advance.. get a gps when in langkawi so that u do not need a guide and u can travel at your own pace and pleasure as well.

My suggestion is that the government upgrade the Kuala Perlis jetty fast as it is one of the many jetties used to enter into beautiful Langkawi.

4 days 3 nights at Chiangmai and Chiangrai - beautiful

The reason for this entry and many more to come after this is to information of places which i have visited and also sharing of information. Well i have had first hand experience on this places and so i will share with you and those who love to travel.
I am doing this out of my own free will and am not going to gain any profit from the places which i have recommend. Well bottom line, take it or leave it.

Chiangmai is located at the northern part of Thailand and i was thinking it would be like Cameron Highland but it was nothing like the comparison. Well upon taking AA, i landed at Chiangmai International Airport. Well it is really nice with two floors. I was on a tour and fair enough my tour guide was waiting for me at the airport. The company who was handling the tour was :

Going to Thailand and not going to for an elephant show would be no fun, so one of the stops was a "Elephant Show Program Maesa Elephant Camp", Email at maesaele@loxinfo.co.th.  The elephant not only had to entertain the guest but also paint for them, yeah elephant drawing are sold for 1000 bath each.

The hotel in which i stayed Suriwongse Hotel
110 Chang Klan Road, Muang
Chiang Mai Thailand

Well i am no complaining about the rooms and the hotel as it was really in the middle of the town with lots of shops and night market just outside. There was also a day market on certain days. Good location and highly recommend.

Well One of the other place which i happen to visit was "Long Neck Karen"

On the last nite out, after our shopping and lots of walking. Well i had made some new friends in the tour and we became good friend. Well as he recap on the event of the past few days in Chiang Mai, we had some live cultural performance with their local beer. Well this place is really nice and awesome. It is called "Kalare Night Bazaar". It was here over beer that a good friendship was formed.

Well I also need to mention here about the cultural night dinner called " Kantoke" which was known as dinner for the king, oh  well better to be a king for the night. It was a really nice and remarkable dinner and i really enjoyed myself dancing with the dancers with Dixon Wong. It was nice and enjoyable.

Well since the friendship was formed, so another adventure awaits me in my next entry.. till then...live with the motto of going to a place where you have never been before at the end of the year and that will give you a goal to be worked at...
