cape verde trip

(The trip to Cape Verde started well with the flight onboard the A380 Airbus where there was a good view from the aisle seat and with the large screen in front and plenty of legroom – it was not a boring, tiring flight)

Boarding the A380 for the start of the journey to Cape Verde was proper & orderly – no morons around to cut queue or to make a scene. Boarding to the upper deck was even better. There were fewer passengers and there seems to be more space up here (I may be wrong).

Kabul Afghanistan Taliban

The stark contrast between the serene beauty of the Malaysian landscape and the rugged, war-torn terrain of Kabul is a constant reminder of home. Each day, as I navigate the chaotic streets of Kabul, the familiar sights and sounds of Malaysia seem distant and cherished.
