Gone Bamboo

I'm in Kuala Lumpur, having a relatively miserable time due to a fleabag hotel with bedbugs,cold showers, clogged toilets, no internet, mildew, shoddy a/c, among other things. (mind you this place was a hotel, not a tiny $10 guest house). Tomorrow I'm headed off to the Perhentian Islands which hopefully will make up for it. I will be off the grid there - no wifi, no bank machines, no electricity during certain parts of the day. Will catch up with the blog before I head to India, hopefully.
