Melaka, Malaysia 💕 this was my first time ~know $Melaka, Malaysia 💕 this was my first time ~knowingly~ visiting a place the Dutch colonized. Digging deeper out of my own free will in my 20s, I feel that my high school education glossed over this part of history, only to casually move on to WW2 . I wonder what Malaysian kids learn about this time---the time (kind of proudly) referred to as "the Dutch Golden Age" in my old school books. What was that education good for . Many of us travelers talk about all the stuff we learn. Maybe it's also good to unlearn things, get uncomfortable, then learn better . And also accept that no matter how much I despise Dutch nationalism and orange, I'm still benefiting from that awful history in many ways. One of those ways: having a powerful passport . Melaka was a stimulating city to visit. Here in this ruined church are gravestone slabs with old Dutch writing. And there was virtually no one around . Not having other tourists around is something I benefit from, but makes others suffer. During this pandemic, many people have lost income or jobs from the lack of tourists visiting the city's UNESCO sites . {Cue happy note to end this post on} . #Melaka #melakatrip #melakacity #melakamalaysia #homestaymelaka #melakaunescoworldheritagecity #melakariver #melakafood #unesco #straitofmalacca #visitmelaka #malaysia #ig_melaka #ig_malaysia$

Pulau Tikus, Penang, Malaysia 💕 Geotagging this

Pulau Tikus, Penang, Malaysia 💕 Geotagging this place is difficult because there's also a neighborhood in George Town named after this island 😅
.
The only way to get here right now is by arranging a boat trip in Malay (or one of Malaysia's many other languages) with a fisherman, or by renting a kayak. You all know I love *kayaking 😃
.
But I haven't kayaked much at sea. So I contacted my friend @chrismercc because he kayaked around Malta. The Strait of Malacca and the Mediterranean Sea aren't completely comparable, but he said kayaking to Pulau Tikus was very doable
.
So we kayaked there! It was amazing. If you want to know what things I encountered on this uninhabited island, you can watch the video I made by clicking the link in my bio
.
*And maybe some of you know I don't like 🐠

Ipoh, Malaysia 💕 This is the most beautiful tem

Ipoh, Malaysia 💕 This is the most beautiful temple I've ever laid eyes on
.
To get here, you must walk through a cave and follow the light at the end of the tunnel. The brightness of day will blind you for a little bit until your eyes recover and you're rewarded with this temple amidst steep cliffs
.
Quite some effort to bring all the materials here and build a temple on such limited space
.
I thought there was no way out but back through the cave, but Google Satellite view (swipe right) tells a different story. The temple itself was inaccessible during my visit, but it looks like the path on the northwest side would have given builders and worshippers another exit/entrance
.
You know, in case of an emergency
