Langkawi 2011

Malaysia has many hidden treasures. One of which is called Langkawi, a small island in the North of the country. There are actually many great little islands to be visited, a bit like Phi Phi islands but with less tourists. The little village has lots to offer with only 2 or 3 ATMs, nice restaurants and an amazing beach. We decided to go Eagle watching and try Jet Skiing to see some of these smaller untouched islands. This magnificent place is where we spent Xmas… near a great swimming pool and close the beach. Happy Xmas everyone.

Even thought the location is amazing it was only when we meet Anis, who really gave a little insight to Langkawi. This young women, started her own little business to be able to spend more time with her children. Most would think that this is a contradictory statement, but she opened her home to tourists and made her garage into a great little cafe with the best pancakes ever. She helped us and told us about the Tsunami which happened in 2004. She witness it live and was truly touched that we were asking about it. Langkawi is special, so special that it is for sure worth another visit.
