Exploration

There has been a long radio silence on this blog – Romana and I traveled southeast-asia for one month. Starting from Singapore, we hit the roads and rails through Malaysia and Thailand to Bangkok. In Malaysia, we visited tea-plantations in the Cameron Highlands and trekked in Taman Negara, which claims to be the world’s oldest primary forest (140mio. years). Thailand saw us diving in Koh Tao and on a so called “Liveaboard-Boat”, which took us out from the west-coast near Phuket to Thailand’s most famous dive sites.
But to get a real impression, you need pictures:
