Tandem paragliding at Bukit Jugra, Malaysia. Located 1 1/2 hours from Kuala Lumpur and 45 mins from KLIA, Jugra is the very scenic launch point for Malaysia’s annual paragliding competition.
What a thrill! Remarkably, I didn’t feel any fear or vertigo. This may well become my sport of choice.

Thank you, Malaysia. This has been one of the most exceptional journeys I’ve ever experienced. You will always be close to my heart.

KL Sentral. High speed rail rocks, by the way. Sydney’s Cityrail blows in comparison to KL’s mass transit system. Trains that move at 160 km/h are rad!

And finally, some last impressions of Kuala Lumpur…

Me and my awesome pilot, Abd. He’s the best pilot in Malaysia, IMO ;)

Paragliding win at Bukit Jugra!

Waiting at the terminal for a bus to Banting. What time does it arrive? Whenever it arrives.
