世界一周やイギリスYMSを経て、今度はペナンに引っ越してきました

Nepal -Pohkara and Kathmandu-

after luxurious 2 nights at MBS, I stayed at ordinary domi by about 20 singapore dollars. haha


And I went to nepal.

At domitory in pohkara, I asked about the trekking to aim Annapura Base Camp. (its domi cost only 5 US dollars per night)

I decided to take part in annapurna sanctuary trekking for 7 days. (about 500 USdollars)


1st day: Nayapul - Grandruk

2ed day: Garndruk - Sinuwa

3rd day: Sinuwa - Deurali

4th day: Deurali - ABC(Annapurna Base Camp)

5th day: ABC - Bamboo

6th day:Bamboo - Thau Qardu

7th day: Thau Qardu - Nayapul


It was too hard and one of the biggest challenge in my life. This is my first time to do like that. I had always felt muscle pain everywhere. it's exactly beyond my limit.


Annapurna I isn't visible from outside of the mountains, so we have to go inside the mountains.

After repeating up and down for 4days, finally I could be surrounded these mountains.


Anyway, look at these marvellous pictures.


I was soooo moved.

I made it.


I was surprised that for nepalish people, 3000-4000m hight is just a hill, around 8000m hight is a mountain.

The highest mountain in Japan is Mt. Fuji 3776m.

I've never seen like things of their hight.


After trekking, I went back to kathmandu. I visited some temples with the professional photographers from Hongkong who I met at the bus.

I learnt how to take a photo from them.


their temples are tibetan buddist? and they have impressive third eye.

Singapore

I went to Singapore from Johor Bahru. The driver who the family hired took me to the Marina Bay Sands. I didn't need to get off the car even at the immigration. I just showed the passport over the window on the car. I met my friends who is classmate and teacher in the philippines at MBS.

Surprisingly he treated sweet room on us. I don't know how much it is, but I can guess easily it is super expensive. actually it is most expensive hotel in singapore.

We went to marinamall, singapore flyer, merlion, art science museum, TWG cafe, singapore chili crab, nightclub 'celavi'... everythings were sooo nice and luxurious. Of course we enjoyed MBS totally. We can use even the lounge freely.



The famous 'infinity pool' was most special for hotel guest.


Next day, we went to universal studio singapore. Comparing to USJ, it's not big, but we enjoyed almost all atractions. 'The revenge of mammy' which of course isn't in Japan was most horrible and scared atraction. every atractions were different from Japanese.


I was soooo lucky.Thank you for my friends.

Malaysia -Penang and Johor Bahru-

Finally I graduated the school in the philippines, I went to Kuala Lumpur first.

I stayed in the philippines for 3 months, so comparing to the philippines, I feel everything are proceed. The train from airport to city central is easy to take, no garbage is on the road, and the happiest thing is no street children. In the philippines, I always got hurt, because I saw them everywhere I go even middle of the city.


I stayed at a house whose my senior colleague's ex-student. Before going their house, they took me to the local restaurant. on the banana leaf, put on rice, curry, or something. I think it was kind of indian food. it was nice and spicy, really delicious.


Surprisingly, thier house is in the high condominium and of couse, rooms are really lovely. It was like in the movie.


I think Malaysia is successful advanced multinational country. When I look around, various kind of races and religions are found. Morever normally they can speak 3 language, Malay, Mandarin, and English.

I think Malaysia fulfills human's desire which everyone can live together. I was so impressed.


Next day, I went to penang by bus. At the domi, I met an american girl. She also has just arrived at the same day, so we went for sightseeing together.

She is the first person who talks english native, so it is a little difficult for me, but she is really similar to my friend who traveled together some times when we were university students, so I really feel comfortable to stay with her.


We enjoyed local food, wall art, and walking around the George Town.  It is one of the world heritage, the buildings which are colonized by uk are remained.

I think wall art is also still alive, because they are completed by taking part in.


We also went to 'Kek Lok Si' chinese temple and penang hill. I don't know about chinese religions well, but this temple are huge, gorgeous, and they have nice view.



Penang hill has also nice view. We waited for sun set and getting dark.

When i saw the nightview which is different from topshill in the philippines, I recognized I'm in another country.



Next day, I went to Johor Bahru. I stayed at my senior colleague's ex-student's house. they maybe chinese but english educated people. this house was also very rich. they took me a lot of places, and treated me so many delicious food. I was lucky because this day was a holiday for Johor Bahru. They also showd? me different two kinds of chinese funeral. I felt it was colorful and fancy for japanese.

One of the chinese culture is enjoying food. Every food I ate is really delicious.



Especially Glass temple is marvellous.


I had a good opportunity to know different culture there. it was really interetsting.
