Malaysia
Malaysia is one of the 17 megadiverse countries, meaning it is one of the world's top countries in terms of biodiversity, therefore home to numerous endemic species. Malaysia is the only country in the world to include territory on the mainland of Southeast Asia as well as on the islands that stretch between Asia and Oceania. Well known for its diverse cuisine and vibrant multiculturalism, blending Malay, Chinese and indigenous cultures, Malaysia boasts beautiful white sandy beaches, crystal clear water with colorful coral reefs, lush rainforests, high mountains and green valleys, and modern cityscapes.
In this blog I am sharing my experiences and travel tips as a female solo traveler discovering this beautiful country, hopefully inspiring your next trip to Malaysia.
On the Malaysian island Perhentian Kecil in the South China Sea, there are some beautiful hikes through the jungle. Starting at the busy Long Beach on the east side of the island, this hike will lead you up to a view point where you can enjoy the panoramic sight over the bay, then deep into the Malaysian jungle, from one secluded beach to the other.
