In 2014 August , Yong had met a person which is Alex in Malaysia Institute of ART ( MIA ) . Both of us are study in interior design  . Yong inspired from a movie name " The secret life of Walter Mitty " that show the rule of life . Step forward dare to dream & do what everything that you want to do . Fascinated natural landscape , challenging  & Mitty overcome difficulty again & again from the movie . That movie make yong try to search meaning of " Life " . Yong invited Alex have a touring by bicycle in Malaysia about 1 week in very casual conversation. We bought the stuff needed & start our first around 500KM from Kuala Lumpur to Johor .  

Why tour on the bike ? At the first we had the idea to go backpacking .​Quickly it became clear, that we need to change something. Backpacking felt too limited and too dependent on public transport. We wanted to be free, go where I want and not staring out of a window for hours, while wonderful place are just passing by . Or we can leave the touristic places easily behind and can stop where we want to .  It's a slow way of travelling but an intensive way .  " The greatest form of detachment is being close to everything but letting nothing own you . You cant be what you can't see , that's a bigger challenger to society today , we're not explored "  . We're try not to shadowing somebody around the world . In conservatism country as Malaysia completely no freedom , hope especially Malaysia Chinese society . 

​

Finally , we did finished a week cycling tour in Malaysia . Needless to say, that adventure was also life-entrancingly wonderful. It didn't matter that we got lost, or weren't sure how to fix our bikes , all of our shortcomings seemed to add to the fun.  We met a lot of friend along the way . They host around the state about the food , history and culture . Cycling tour took a backseat during my busy years of studying at collage .    

​

The most difficult part to cycling in Malaysia was the weather . It's hot . Rain is our only hope to feel better . We came back with dark skin but thank god we're safe . Thank You to the people who help us along the tour . Jia Jia , Qian Hui , Uncle Lao Chuo & Vivian .
