Oh I looked up Yogyakarta (never heard of it before) and it looks awesome and exactly the kind of place I enjoy visiting.

Anything else like that in the region? Basically, I might be in Singapore, and am looking for shit near Singapore to visit. Never been to the region before.

Yogykarta is like a $150 round trip from Singapore. It's insanely cheap too. I stayed at the Hyatt, which was like $100 a night, but the service and grounds were great, very good and cheap restaurants and bar too.

The volcano hike is a bitch (you hike up like 4 miles almost straight up the side of an active volcano at 1am to catch the sunrise, a lot of Euro stoner tourist bros can't physically make it), but one of the coolest things i've ever seen. Temples were cool, the entire region seemed exotic.

Indonesia in general has a lot of cool places to check out, Bali is cool, but so many other interesting things there.

from what I hear from people in Singapore, there are lots of beaches and resorts to check out. I don't know much about the interior of the country though. You can also go there by ferry from Singapore in like 45 minutes.

Do you HAVE to spend time in Singapore? 2 weeks in SE is practically 10 days given transit time.

Yes I want to see Singapore before I die.

And yes I am used to a lot of transit time on my vacations. I prioritize being able to spend a few days in multiple countries over spending a lot of time in one country.

Yes I get all of that. 4 days in Singapore is overkill imo. Yogya is a really good recommendation. Sumatra has a billion 180 spots you can get to quickly too but I dunno if you are eager to chill in Singapore it might not be for you. I'd do either Indonesia or Vietnam afterward imo.

for me the trip down was worse. Wore worn out running shoes, kept slipping on my ass. Quads and knees got FUCKED for a few weeks.

My guide and I destroyed all of those burnout Euros hiking up it, I was one of the first people to the top.

shit man, do not stay in Singapore more than like 2-3 days. Not much to see. It's all new rootless cosmo bullshit.

Go there, hit Indonesia for 2-3 days (I liked Yogakarta a lot and recommend it, but there are lots of cool places to see in Indonesia otherwise). Back to Singapore, catch a flight to Siem Reap Cambodia for 2 full days to see Angkor Wat and surrounding temples (which are pretty damn amazing and town is insanely cheap), then fly to Thailand (Bangkok and/or Phuket) and chill

Mind you, a lot of one way flights around SE Asia are like $60

basically, with two weeks, hitting singapore, somewhere in indonesia, then going up to a few places in cambodia and thailand, you will cover a lot of ground and see a lot of cool shit. Very doable in two weeks.

Night market food was good. The Shangri-La is nice and the pool has a good view of the park.

Short day trip to Malacca and a good jumping off point for Penang.

I'd go back if I went to Penang.
