If you ever need a massage whilst in the Perhentians, then Ahmed is your guy! He literally has the best seat in the house with stunning views overlooking Perhentian Island Resort beach, one of the nicest on the island. Getting a full body, traditional Malay massage whilst listening to the sound of the sea is the perfect end to a serious jungle hike in Besar. I've never seen a cuter massage parlour! ✨

Just a bit ...

What a fun hike! Can't believe jungle trekking won over beach bumming on day number 1 of the hols, but the views made it well worth it 😍 Definitely a must do when visiting the Perhentians, so nice to get a different perspective of the island. Plus I've just nailed the perfect day when visiting Kecil (small isle) .. post coming soon!

What a fun ...

Four words: it's half term eve! 🌴 💃
After another epic term of crazy school action, this vacation is all about beach bumming. It's like the day before Christmas for us primary school teachers- believe me, we've earned it! In 2 days you can find me - collapsed - here in Malaysia's stunning and best value for money island. 😘

Four words: it's ...

This big hill is the world's largest quartz dyke and a UNESCO world heritage site, sitting pretty only 15 minutes from KLCC. It would have made for a challenging and beautiful hike yesterday, but in true Malaysian fashion I arrived to find it 'closed until further notice!' ▫️
▫️
Although it's not for the faint hearted. The closure is likely to be a result of hiker injuries at the more difficult routes from breaking rocks and steep descents. In more extreme circumstances, falls have resulted in death. If it reopens, it should be preceded with caution. .

Secluded islands are the best. Especially when you're the only mutha pukka on it 😜
This pic was taken a few years ago off one of Thailand's best islands, Koh Chang. We kayaked to Koh Suwan from KC. It's a small, rocky islet that has a little sandy beach but what it lacked in beauty, it made up for in castaway vibes.

Thankfully there's only two weeks left until the Malaysian islands work its magic again. 😍 #islandtherapy #whatsummerholidays .
