Perak Tong Cave Temple |poh, Perak

Morning, chanting, and a view worth every step. The best time to visit is in the morning. This was my first time to be impressed.

The artwork on the walls, the giant Buddha inside the cave, the quiet — it’s very impressive.

Climbing with intention hits different.

I chanted, prayed with both hands, and set my goal before going up. Body was tired. Spirit wasn’t.

The climb wasn’t as bad as Borobudur in Jogja. But the energy here?

Just as sacred.It got slippery near the cliff. And the cool breeze was hitting me from all sides 😂

Just a few more steps to the peak.

Thank god there was shade and a bench. Sat there, cooled down, then started the walk back down.

The energy here makes me feel light and free.

I came for more than a getaway.

To stay open. To stay grounded on this earth.

I’ve always wanted to live a life of adventure.

Surprisingly, what I sought was seeking me.

It was never easy.

But the writing, the excitement, and these experiences…

That’s what I love about being a traveler and blogger.

Being here right in the moment made me feel happy, free, and light. #BornFreeNow,

to fuel that freedom: Nasi Ganja.
