So hey guys! As you all know, I recently went to Egypt on a social volunteering program with AIESEC. Read more to find out the tips that every traveler and tourists ought to know about Egypt, from how much should you bring to places you don't want to miss.

So yes ! I daresay I went to Egypt and came back - alive, breathing, better than ever.

​A: Where to next?
Me: Grand Canyon!
A: which rim?
Me: what rim?
A: You've got 3 hours to decide and research on Grand Canyon

Btw, an unfortunate story...

A place so untouched by technology and urbanization,
Sand dunes and oasis waiting for you to start your exploration.
Camping in the desert, not for the faint-hearted, 
Welcome to Fayoum, so let's get started.

​This is embarassing but I have a confession to make, truth is during "the planning phase" I've been reading the map wrong all this while, thinking that D.C and Washington is the same until my friend was like "why do you keep saying D.C is far away from NY?!" Okay, so I'm not very good with geography, sue me. I'm pretty sure half the people out there didn't know abou this too. Right? 

For Malaysians just to visit US, you have to get a visa, and the visa itself is pretty hard to get. I heard that it's better if you're a non-muslim but I have a friend who failed to get his visa TWICE. So yes, this is a post on how I manage to get my visa with a 99% success rate, manage to somewhat-land a job that allows me to travel for a month to 9 places across the country with only "the initial amount i pay." 

​
Okay so I like I mentioned previously, I worked for 3 months before I started travelling so that's kinda cheating. So when I mean 10,000 it's the amount of money I spent coming to USA (inclusive of visa, flight tickets and pocket money). Here's the breakdown of it:

Because I went on this Exchange Program under the Ministry of Youth and Sports hence all my food is pork-free and is as halal as possible. Hopefully, vegetarians and muslims find this post useful (because Vijay and Mathana are vegetarians and they survived for 10 days).

Hong Kong, famous for their dim sum and offensive hawkers is a place we would want to go visit but fear to as well. But truth is behind their rudeness they're actually really nice people, they're so nice in a rude way, it's funny really. 

How do I know this?

Because I FINALLY went to HK after 20 years and I've actually done this post already in my old blog, and it's too much of a hassle to move post from one platform to the other so just click HERE, to check out some tips and what I did in HK. 

Put your hands up for those who has ever caught yourself imagining walking on the streets of Korea with a popsicle in hand on a sunny yet breezy day.I know I did, and guess what, I did EXACTLY that when I was in Korea!

During my stay in Korea they brought us to a few streets: Insadong, Myeongdong, Bukchon Hanok and Itaewon. All these streets has their own specialty and definitely worth the visit, especially the first one! 

Okay, so you've probably never heard of Gangneung and Pyeongchang before because all the K-dramas that you've watched was filmed in Seoul. Kinda like, foreigners would try to impress you with their geography by saying "I know the capital city of Malaysia is Kuala Lumpur" and then you continue to tell them you're from KK, Sabah which is 2 and a half hours away and they look at you as if you're from a different continent because if you have to fly for that long you might as well be in another country or continent already. 

So anyways, for my exchange program, to enlightened us that Korea is more than just Seoul, we went out of the city and into the woods, located North of Seoul are Gangneung and Pyeongchang.
