Hi again!
I'll try and write a proper intro for here soon, but for now there's a random splattering of words throughout this post.

Yangon – Day 93 to Day 98
Inle – Day 99
Inle lake is one of the places I wish I'd spent longer in...
Around the lake there's fishing, spinning and weaving, boat building, cigars, and (while we were unfortunately there at the wrong time of day to see this) I'm told that when they aren't eating, sleeping, or at prayer there are monks with cats that jump through hoops.

Inle to Kalaw – Day 100 to Day 102
A three day trek from Inle Lake to Kalaw in photos...
On the second day we had the opportunity to stop by a wedding.
The bride and groom were 18 and 19 respectively and neither really seemed to be enjoying themselves that much.
People from all of the neighbouring villages come by to partake, bringing food and essentially having a massive potluck.
Off to the airport now... Next stop, Nepal!

Bagan – Day 103 to Day 105
So I went to check out sunrise with three German speaking Swiss guys but
we didn’t really plan a route and ended up watching sunrise from the top of a
miniature hill rather than a temple.
After an anticlimactic photography session there we proceeded to putter around to Old Bagan on scooters, stopping at a few temples to say hi to the local wildlife...
... eventually we stopped for coffee. A couple of girls then showed us up to the top of a little temple with a much better view than the hill.

It then got too hot out and we headed back.
For sunset I rented my own e-bike and got lost on my own...
Bagan to Yangon – Day 106
It was raining and I was on a bus...
consequentially, no photos.

Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) – Day 107 to 111
KL is home to the Batu caves, Thean Hou Temple, and the Petrona Twin Towers.... It also happens to have an amazing cafe named LOKL Cafe where I've been spending the past few days editing photos and drinking coffee. Their cappuccino is particularly adorable...
Off to the airport now... Next stop, Nepal!
