arrived in bangkok

on the 20th  i left bangladesh, and flew to kuala lumpur (kl), malaysia. it is a crazy city, i think no matter from where you arrive. but if you come from a country like bangladesh, where everything is dirty, and the streets are so caotic...and the houses are rather fucked up...and not so high...it is a huge flash to come to kl!!
there are so many skyscrapers, and they are HUGE! and the city is so clean...and there were so many tourists!! probably in 3 minutes i saw more tourists then during my whole time in bangladesh!!

some pictures from kl...

me in front of the petronas twin towers

 since it was monday i could not go up there...its closed on monday!! what a pitty...

opposite the twin towers...these buildings are huge as well, but seem rather small compared to petronas

another one

petronas towers again

not EVERYTHING is new in this city

many of the skyscrapers have cranes on top...are built right now!

outside a temple...

...and inside

at night...

...the buildings...

...look amazing!

constuction

everywhere

i guess kl is a huge airport...4 flights at 13h40!!! and one was mine...

 on the 22nd i flew to bangkok, where i met flo again! yesterday we went together to the myanmar embassy, for the visa! we are supposed to get it tomorrow, and our flight to yangon (the capital) is on saturday, 26th of february! we will stay for 28 days, so will be back in bangkok on the 25th of march! today we went to change money into us dollars, since in myanmar there are no atms...so you have to bring all the money there. and the bank notes have to be in a really good condition...like new. otherwise the people will not take them (i dont really know why...hopefully i can tell you soon!!)
i am erally looking forward to myanmar, and the few people i met who have been there all said that it was the most beautiful country in asia, and that the people are really nice...it is said to be very safe for travelling, but you have to be careful e.g. what you say (talking about politics is "dangerous", taking pictures of particular things can be bad for you,...) but in general its said to be AMAZING!! so i am really excited to leave...

here in bangkok are so many atms...and none in myanmar!!
