The Sweetest Things

St. Kilda’s Famous Vanilla Slice

Melbourne, Australia

I am sitting once again in Kuala Lumpur after over ten days in the picturesque Perhentian Islands, which are in northern Malaysia. There was no internet, no roads, no hot water, often no power, and I loved every moment of it. We passed the days reading, writing, lying on the beach, swimming, snorkelling, eating, and sleeping, and our nights were spent sitting under starry skies lit only by fireworks and the occasional bonfire. In short, it was paradise.

Tomorrow we are headed to Indonesia, for more of the sweetest things in life. I never want this to end.
