TRAVEL - Largely depends on how the individual would interpret 'Travel'. For some people I know, travel means holidaying (lying by a beach for 2 weeks) and for some travel is just getting from A to B for work or a special occasion. Some I know also, travel far far away, but end up spending more time drinking and partying and splashing all their money. And many different kinds!
To me, Travel is fascinating, an eye opener to see the real world (eg. the beauty and hospitality of Sri Lanka & Bali), to explore the wonders of the world eg. the ancient & eternal city of Cairo, Angkor Wat and Rome), the beauty of the potter's hand (eg. the heart of Mediterranean, Malta and the mountain range at the Pyrenees), the great cities of the world (most talked about New York, Tokyo, Hongkong, London & Paris) and of course culture and cuisine (eg. Malaysia is well known for that) and so much more...
I have to say, over the past 3 years after I joined VT, I have grown so much, in terms of my writing skills, picture taking, learned how to take new cultures onboard, understanding peoples lifestyles, organizing my expenses and time for travel and to appreciate every moment of my daily life coz you never know what comes to you next.
In this context I have compiled all my amateur journals and I have to admit that I do have some wonderful pictures 'guaranteed as original' from me and for all of you (the real travellers to share this great experience of travelling).
I will always welcome constructive comments as a motivation for me to be a better genuine writer.
To all traveller's , I wish you happy travel and safe journey to wherever you are heading to.

Is beautiful country, in fact it was just a right time visiting the Land of Rising Sun especially during the cherry blossom season. Tokyo was my first stop before heading to discover more ancient city of Kyoto; I explore Tokyo top sights such as Odaiba, Asakusa, Ginza and famous Shinjuku in just a short two days, cultural experiment of the metroplis lifestyle from taking the local subways to strolling the food hall market in Mitsukoshi, reading MANGA and watching baseball. Tokyo was my gateaway to Mt.Fuji & Hakone, it was an unforgettable journey.
Then I travel to Kyoto by HIKARI (Japan famous Bullet Train) which will be my last stop; cherry blossom is such more beautiful here combines with ancient structures around, it just blends well. My trip to Himeji and Nara is probably my greatest highlight; sakura around the castle and very friendly deers its something that rarely seen in other parts of the world.
