Just back from BA, there last week,
got a hostel up in Ig’ falls was like €14 for two for the night, you got to go to the the falls, tour costs about €30 max, and you need at least a day there, and its class, haven't been down south in Argentina, thats next time I go back.
ya need to go to Joe Bannas in Hong Kong, was mad when I was there.
Singapore, I wish I could go with ya................ head down to clark quay.
get a few of the tours from the hotel, ya should have it done in 3 days
for the electronics, head to the sim lim towers, go to raffels just to see it, and make sure that you pants on, they wont let you in with shorts
In KL, you can go up the towers, but i never made it up there, theres some good clubs on the Main street, can't remember the name.
if ya can there is a rain forest park in malaysia, ment to be class, its on my list of things to do if I ever get back. head out to the beatu caves, well wort it, tin mines are a money suck if ya ask me.
make sure you get a lonely planet for toyko, other wise you won't be able to get around the subway, and if all else fails, eat in the 7-11 shops, and in outer tokyo, they won't let you into many of the bars,as your could be seen to be American, make sure that they know that you are Irish.
Above all else, you're going to some truly incredible places, lots of photos for the world to see :-)
yo Mack, Keep posting, class lad. Keep the blog going, i have it on one of my home pages :)
