- Penang ArrivalPenang. A real city again, with skyscrapers and proper buses and everything. Chris already misses the beach, though we just spent 4 weeks in the sand. We walk around in a daze of smells, alternatingly tantalizing and putrid. Dazed walking Posted by chschen in Teenie Travels | Apr 14, 2013

- Day XVII (Part One): BorderI always expected that Thailand would be a bit of a culture shock, especially after laid-back Malaysia and upmarket Singapore.

At 7am I was woken by the sound of the generator switching off, which in turn shut off the fan and prompted me to grab a pair of swimshorts and leave the room. Posted by WorldWideWill in Will's Worldwide Wandering | Apr 30, 2013
