These Are The 29 Cities I Traveled To In 2017

Yass 2017 has been an incredible travel year for me as you can see below! Exploring 29 cities often with friendly locals showing me around. Trying stinky tofu, flying First Class and showering in the incredible Kuang Si Falls in Laos are just a few of the many many memories I collected the last 12 months.

Life is one daring adventure or nothing at all! So where do you wanna go in 2018, how much you wanna risk?

If you also want to discover why Kazakhstan is not like pictures in Borat then visiting Almaty is a good idea.

Kuala Lumpur

KL was my stopover for the business class flights on Emirates and Malaysia Airlines. Visiting the Petrona Twin towers was a perfect activity.
If you are not sure how to transit between KLIA1 and KLIA2 then I have a guide for you ๐Ÿ˜‰

Good morning #kualalumpur ๐Ÿ˜Š

Colombo

The capital of Sri Lanka is a cheap starting point for Business class flights so I passed there a few times this year ๐Ÿ™‚ The OZO hotel was perfect to relax in between hectic flight schedules.

Taipei

So happy I finally managed to visit Taiwan, it had been on my bucket list for ages. You can read all about it in my Taipei travel guide.

Luang Prabang

You probably never heard about this city in Laos but it’s so worth to visit the Kuang Si Falls!

  1. It’s amazing you visited so many places in just one year. Next time in Japan I recommend you explore more small cities, in which you can feel better of Japanese life style.

  2. Ginger Around The World

    That’s the plan indeed, would be nice to explore some more areas in Japan.
