Frankly, the only Asian country I will visit again as a short
'getaway' by flight will be Laos, Luang Pabrang area or
Vientienne.
Tropical beaches and resorts are only worthwhile when it's couple
hood activity with the promise of spas, suntan and getting laid. So
we'll nix that for this forum.
Apart from that, places such as Malaysia would be nice, but only if
it involves sleeper train rides. Not willing to spend so much on it
because I've been to Malacca, Penang, KL, JB etc etc when I was a
kid. It's rather boring going back to places I've been to before.
Ispyyy is going to remind me that it is always the company that
matters and everyone can have fun, just depends on whether or not
they want to. Yep that's right, but if you're asking me to drive up
to Malaysia just to have seafood and drink beer, I'd rather do it
at Changi Village. Friend of mine was in Borneo last year and
stayed in a jungle, mingle with the tribes. Now that is another
story altogether if we get to see some tigers or do some hunting
for a change.
What I was thinking of initially was a longer trip. Between 10 to
15 days. It will be something to look forward to, an adventure.
Some where far off from big cities etc. Mt Kilimanjaro is good. But
air tickets cost 2K over. So some planning has to be done
beforehand. Which is why I am suggesting to do it at year end. But
then again for most people, they wouldn't know whether they'll be
free at year end. So I guess we'll just leave that idea hanging for
now.
