Any ones want to learn scuba diving wif me, I'm planning to go to redang or langkawi by end of dis year

End of the year?
Dont know about langkawi but going to redang the end of the year is a bad plan.
monsoon season maa. some of the places also will be closed.

How about langkawi, got PADI scuba diving school on pulau payar, but its take 6 days to get the open water cert

not sure about langkawi but i went to pangkor once during nov-dis and it was raining everyday.
better check the weather first before planning.

I did my OWD at East Marine, Langkawi. It take only 4days. however, price at East Marine cost me around RM1.3k exclude accommodation. EM is 5star dive center and they cater more to foreigns.

On the other hand at Terangganu or Pahang more cheaper. the course only +- RM990.

Planning on trip to South America end of year for about 2 weeks. (any two weeks from early Nov to late Dec).
Initial idea is to cover Peru, Argentina, Brazil and Chile but flexible on trip itinerary. Let me know if you are interested.

Hrm, do you think 2 weeks is enough? the flight would've taken up 2 full days dy. That leaves you with just 12 days to explore.

any estimated budget in mind?

I'm traveling to KK on 7-11 June (5D/4N) with family (2A/2C) on Air Asia from PEN.
I'm looking for anybody (couple or family) who are interested to join in.
Anybody traveling on the same flight?
My itinery will be a day trip to Mt Kinabalu and the rest of the days in KK town.

September -> Europe ! anyone?

Hi everyone,

Looking to plan a backpacking trip in Europe next year. Just looking to see how many people are interested to go. I have some families in different parts in Europe (Sweeden, Scotland, Belgium) so we could plan stop there as well. PM me. We can plan out the details later.

FYI i am currently in US, but taking short vacation in Msia now.

September this year can? =P

hmm sept this year dont think can. i just took 3 weeks off lol

if you have exact timing and can give me the rough budget i want!!!

Anybody wants to travel with me to Korea this July? Preferably female as Im female too ;p

Pls PM me asap~~~

Still in planning stage for backpack to Europe. I will figure out some dates, places to see, stop and routes. Then i will post and give everyone a better estimate of time and cost.

Thanks
