Having decided to stay in Malaysia for more than my original month long tour, I am now going to make the jump from Peninsular Malaysia to Borneo Malaysia this Sunday. This is possibly going to be the most memorable part of the Malaysian leg of this trip as so many people have told me how wonderful the nature is on Borneo. I am looking forward to seeing wild Orangutans, stunning scenery and the less well traveled parts of this nation.

Getting the flights today could not have been simpler. I recommend AirAsia.com if you want to get cheap internal flights (up to 50% less than Malaysian Airlines) but you do have to book a month in advance to get the cheapest deals. So it's Malaysian Airlines on the way there (RM180) and AirAsia on the way back (RM116).
