| The Japanese game that rules in Kyoto seems to be very simple but more popular - most of the 'American style' racing and shooting games went unused. Another thing is that this place has more then 2000 temples…

| “Padangbai Beach Inn would have been much nicer, if the ceiling fan didn't squeak (loudly), if the rooms had included top bed sheets and toilet paper, and if Sarah wasn't sick on the first night from something she ate.” But the Blue Lagoon nearby is a great reward, especially if your kids love snorkeling.

| “Most travelers will tell you that they either loved or hated India. While it is admittedly a squalid, crowded, difficult place to travel, it was nevertheless one of the most exotic, colorful, and rewarding parts of my journey.” Short and at the same time highlighting the most worth seeing things, without hiding the reality.

| “Bhutan -- known also as "the land of the thunder dragon," but could just as easily be nicknamed, "land of the howling dogs", "land of the chili pepper", "land of the photo-op", or "land of butter products". We were thrilled to be finally in such a relaxing place.” And reading this I was impressed to learn about the way children behave there.

| The India’s “WOW” factor drives people no matter how many times they visited it before. “Even in the centre of the cities you can see people that looked like they’ve just walked out of the Old Testament. Drivers can and do pull out into the road, even major highways, without a signal or even bothering to look in their mirror”. Sounds promising:).

| Wow! Cockfighting is the national sport of the Philippines! I didn’t know that. Have you heard of it? It’s cruel, if you think of the razor-sharp blades tied to their legs by a ‘gaffer’. Unbelievable!

| Who would have thought that the Daewoo and Hyundai workers in Korea are going on demonstrations, while the rest of the world enjoys the comfort of their products? And who would think Korea is so fascinating, and its people - so sweet?..

| “We had no idea how far it was to the next petrol station, but the increasing prevalence of roadside stalls selling motorbike fuel in old Coke and Fanta bottles suggested it was some distance yet.” No doubt. Driving in Bali is a unforgettable experience. Have fun with it!

| Climbing in Bukittinggi |

| “It is unusual to have to pay to climb outdoors. It goes against the grain for most climbers… Just as we feel we should be allowed to walk the hills for free, so we should be able to climb on any attractive vertical faces we find there.” But such isn’t the case in Sumatra, where people are eager to make money on each word they say to you.
