When I visited Malaysia for the Malaysia Tourism Hunt 2012 my first stop was Pullman Putrajaya Lakeside. Before leaving someone who knows Malaysia asked me where was I staying and when I said Putrajaya they were suitably impressed. I now understand why.

Festivals and Events in Malaysia
In my two short visits to Malaysia I can vouch for one thing, they love to celebrate! I once heard their tourism minister Dato Sri Dr. Ng Yen Yen declare that Malaysia is a land of warm climate, warm water, warm beaches and warm people. I fully agree with that! I would add that Malaysians…
More Pictures from Malaysia
I got to see much more of Malaysia on my second trip. And Malaysia is the second country where I have been more than once. I have been to UK many times but it is because of my work. Come summer and I think Nepal will get added to this list as I plan to…
Cycling at Putrajaya, Malaysia Tourism Hunt 2012
Guess what did we do after driving at the Sepang International Circuit? We went cycling at Putrajaya in Malaysia. It had been ages since I went cycling and I was wondering if I would be able to cycle again! But I did fine. Cycling is one activity that everyone can identify with, the bruises sustained…
The Dancers from Malaysia
On both my trips to Malaysia I have had the pleasure of watching many dance performances. I do not understand the language but the costumes are really colorful, the movements graceful and the music upbeat. This was the first performance on the Malaysia Tourism Hunt 2012 trip. The group was actually much bigger but I…

First Thoughts of a Mushy Brain
Have you ever tried blogging when your brain is a mush? I am at KL International Airport waiting for the two Mumbai participants to arrive. I know how international immigration is so I am patient.

High on Malaysia!
I did a brief trip to Malaysia in May 2012 and I have to say the country completely amazed me! It was a stop on a short notice so I had very little idea as to what to expect. I came back completely awed. The infrastructure was sound, the city clean and the people friendly….

Putrajaya is a planned city, the administrative captial of Malaysia. That means a lot of Government offices are in this area along with the staff quarters. It is 25km outside Kuala Lumpur. As I was invited to Malaysia for their 1 Blogger’s Conference this trip was on our agenda. On our last day we had…
