it’s very nice, and it was really hot when we went. we visited the park with all the architecture by gaudi and saw some other buildings he designed. barcelona is a pretty good place for people who like art, especially surrealism (dali museum). i also saw a lot of grafitti, but not just tagging like i usually see at home, there were lots of really cool things.

i would love to go to japan, especially tokyo to see the harajuku district..i stayed in tokyo overnight on my way to australia but i’d like to stay there for longer and have a proper look around.

getting around by taxi rather than renting a car is a good idea, the roads there (or at least in Cairo) are crazy. seriously.

nice place, it’s very clean ^.

I stayed in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, which were both amazing. In Kuala Lumpur I visited the malls and markets and bought some cute things. I also took a bus around the city sightseeing, and went to the top of the tower (even though it freaked me out a little). From my hotel window I could see the Petronas Towers which were absolutely beautiful at night when they were lit up. In Penang I stayed in a hotel that was literally metres away form the sea. On the first day there I met a retired teacher who gave me a tour. I saw temples, drank coconut juice by the side of the road, took a walk through a swamp and ate the best banana pancakes ever in a little cafe. I’d love to go again and would definately recommend it ^.

going to Indonesia was a great experience, it taught me not to take what I have for granted. I saw people living by the road under sheets of tarpaulin – it was shocking and I am definately now more thankful for the things I have.
