tioman (malaysia)

Alright people, I know I´ve been bad lately, not keeping you up to date. But school is keeping me really busy plus there is so many things I enjoy doing out here. Then all this travelling that needs to be planned... Life is tough sometimes ;) Today we finished our bookings for Philippines on recess week. This coming Thursday Nisim and me will be leaving for Cebu and do some island hopping, finishing up in Manila from Sunday evening to Tuesday morning. That´s only going to be five quick days in Philippines, but i suppose very adventurous ones :)

This weekend I stayed in Singapore, to do some studying supposedly. Well I somehow wasted my Saturday in town shopping somehow. How could I resist buying three necklaces for 10 SGD (ca. 5€)??? Well I am actually saving money lately - for all that trips that are about to come :)
Plus school is almost over again... in about 11 weeks I am finished with all my exams for this semester and am off to who knows where. I can´t believe how time flies by... But fortunately there is all this wonderful places around that stop time for a while. Like Tioman, an Malaysian Island we went to last weekend. Check out the pictures and be jealous, whatever busy place you are in this world:

Tioman Island, "a piece of heaven", according to Inga

A two bed hut costs 40RM (8€) per night. In the picture you can see Christian with his very first house he ever ownend in his life ;)

The huts came with monkeys - I guess ours was not dirty enough, so they went to our neighbor´s for picking garbage...

Thats the speed boat ferry we took to Tioman

You would not believe what beautiful butterflies you´d find... I wish they were not too fast for me taking pictures!

Salang Beach - I definitely picked the nicest beach on this Island :)

Well the small river was a bit smelly - You know how people on small islands don´t have any possibilities to get rid of their garbage...

Those crazy big lizards were just everywhere on the island. Felt a bit like being in Jurrasic Park...

Nisim and me in front of the Chalets :)

Fish, fish, fish - whereever you turned your head.

watching the sunset by the beach in a hammock - can you think of anything more relaxing?? I can´t :P

Christian, Sofia, Inga & Abdullah waiting for somthing to happen :)

nighty-night, may there be another great day to come :)

Petra, Sofia, Nisim, Abdullah, Inga, Christian & me - Thanks everybody for making that trip so awesome :)

After sun set we finally got some food: we picked nice fish they grilled for us.


They looked so yammy (and were!) after grilling :)

there we go: breakfast by the beach :)

After breakfast we started our snorkling trip around Coral Island. I LOVE MY UNDERWATER CAMERA CASE!!! :)

Follow me :)

Nisim, me, Petra & Christian looking forward to the next stop :)

Me feeding the fish...

Those fish were actually really agressive. They bit me a 9798565342343467687556 times!!! :(

Just look at this beautiful colors...

Petra, Nisim, me & well Christians belly... :P

Me & the huge dangerous jelly fish! This was absolutely the biggest one I´ve ever seen!!!

It was just amazing to watch its movement. I should have taken a video...

See that big fish on the left? HE bit me really hard into my arm. They didn´t even stop biting me when all the bread was already gone...

Nisim picked up a huge shell with lots of wonderful colors :)

last group picture for the weekend... thanks guys for making this one so special :)

This weekend was just awesome. It was really hard to only select a "few" pictures to give you a feeling of what a great time I am having down here ;) hehe
We actually liked Tioman so much, that we extended our stay till Monday morning. Eventhough that meant I would miss my favorite class. But this piece of heaven was definitely worth it :)

Thanks for following :)
