Are we scared of the Coronavirus?
Many people have asked us how is coronavirus situation in SE Asia. Is there the same or worse panic like in Europe or USA? I am not sure. It is very hard to say. Asian people wear face masks anyway when they have a cold, or allergies or simply to protect themselves from air pollution. We didn’t notice more people…

New Year in Kuala Lumpur
It was the beginning of December when we had to leave Sri Lanka and finding a fairly cheap flight and accommodation was a bit difficult due to incoming Christmas and New Year. The cheapest option was Malaysia again. We've been there a few times before and we feel comfortable in Kuala Lumpur so it was no brainer for us to…

Rainy Sri Lanka
Our trip to Sri Lanka didn’t start well right from the beginning. First, our flight was 3 hours delayed. Then, when we finally arrived someone asked us if we need a taxi. Nothing unusual at the airport, but he said he’s with Uber and the price he asked for was also close enough to Uber so we agreed to go…

Anak Krakatoa – a trip of our life
Ever since I watched a documentary about Krakatau it became my obsession. I've seen every single possible documentary about it.

Johor Bahru Malaysia
We went to Johor Bahru mainly because we wanted to make a fast one or two day trip to Singapore.

A…

Scary, Creepy… and peaceful. Riviera Bay Condo Malacca
We've arrived at Malacca Central by bus. Airbnb host sent a friend to pick us up from the station. To be clear, we didn't ask for it. We were going to take a taxi/Grab, but the host said it's not a problem and he's going to make sure someone is there waiting for us. The ride from the bus station…

Tamarind Square, Cyberjaya, KL
We've been to Kuala Lumpur before so this time we didn't look for an adventure. We wanted to find a place where we can simply relax. Especially after some weird experiences in Vietnam and Cambodia. We found this place very affordable and it even offered us some extra "features" that helped with saving money.

Digital nomad lifestyle on social media and reality
It has never been easier to travel full time and work at the same time. Many people already do it. Many want to, but they're still uncertain how to do it and if they want to risk their full time office job. Social media are full of amazing images people with laptops on a tropical beach or other stunning location.…
