One of the sufferers

Yoga is pain. I know yoga's image, at least where I come from, is a bit wishywashy, a bit soft new age, the people doing it scatter brains who wear silly baggy trousers. Although I've only been to one yoga...

A Malaysian mystery

A Malaysian mystery Hi everyone, here is the article which chronologically fits behind "In the shaman's view". The first part of this piece talks about in part the political situation in Malaysia, and as such is deeply under researched. I...

I wish I was a suitcaser

Two opposing ideas bash up against each other in my head. One: I've decided that I want to end this RTW trip around the end of this year. Two: I have no idea what I want to do after I...

Some feng shui for my parents

It was wonderful seeing my parents. We've had a great week's holiday together, and I've probably grown accustomed to nice hotel rooms as a result... They liked visiting KL and the Cameron Highlands, but it wasn't until we got to...

Hi everyone, I'm now back in KL, feeling terribly sad and alone. It has been a wonderful time staying with Cayce. We have become very close friends, we've talked about so many things, it felt so miserable sitting in the...
