I'm back

After 74 days traveling in South East Asia, I finally get to my 2 last weeks of traveling. I've spent my last 2 weeks at a woofing place nearby Bukit Tingi in Malaysia. Food was great, people were kind and and they had a big big heart. I'm aware of some misunderstandings once in a while, but still in the end I feel I left some friends behind.

Singapore and Malaysia were kind of a breath of fresh air. It is amazing how different this is from Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. Prices are still low, but today I saw Porsches, Ferraris, among other power cars, which makes this country, an Asian city that actually forgot who "she" is.
I've tried hard but I can't seem to find a specific identity in this place. There are Indian, Chinese, Malaysian, among many others, filling the country and painting the city.

I took 2 weeks off, to work on a woofing farm, mainly because I wanted to have a place to call "home" for more than 4 days. Packing and unpacking, were actually stressing me in a way I could actually feel it on my body.

I admit that I don't miss Vietnam at all, mainly because of the people. They were nice sometimes, but not all the time, and sometimes that became stressful.
Now I'm in Malaysia, after 75 days, more than 19000 km, 5 countries, many borders, some money already spent, and many friends left behind.
It's time to reflect a bit about life. Now I actually think about my couchsurfers, and I think about the people I left behind.

Beside my mother and father that I miss the most for sure, I've noticed how much I miss people like Amanda, Malle, Aneta, Zorana, Inês (I know they are all girls but it means nothing) and Ricardo and Nuno. They were and still are so but so important in my life, that in the end I don't have words to thank them enough.

Ok, I don't want to be unfair, mainly because there are lots of others who helped me a lot, and who were there for me, but this ones particularly, were there when nobody else was.
I still don't know where to go, what to do, and how to do it. Now I'll have Thailand to relax, swim and do amazing things I've never done before. I have Australia and many other friends to meet, leave behind, and in the end make then part of who I am.

This is I hope the returning of my blog, and even being difficult to write every day, I'll do my best to keep it updated.

Today is the 13th of November.The 74th day of my round the world trip.
