Salam from Gili Trawangan in Indonesia!

Just thought I should post a quick note to let you all know where I am...paradise! Turquoise water, soft white sand and the best scenery you could ask for all around me. Sadly, I'm leaving tomorrow on a turbo-ferry back to Bali where I'll need to find a taxi to take me to the island of Java. From there, it's ancient temples, volcanoes and sea turtles hopefully!

Hello from South of the Equator!

Arrived safely in Bali, paid my 25$ US for a fancy new visa, and cleared the numerous bomb checks on the way to the hotel. The Hard Rock Hotel of course... My mission to hit every cafe is going well! (So far, hit two in Tokyo, Beijing and now this one.)

From the Pearl of the Orient

Well I'm finally out from underneath the red curtain of China's media blockade, and finally I can blog, tweet and Facestalk again!

Arrived in Hong Kong last night and was greeted by cars driving on the left, doubledecker busses and English signage everywhere! Went for a swim today in my rooftop pool overlooking the harbour; sometimes it pays to be travelling with your parents. :P
