This photos is from Malaysia, from the island of Borneo and the city of Kota Kinabalu and the biggest chinese temple there.
It was really beautiful and serene to be there, I still remember the smell on incense and the sound of the bells ringing.
Wonderful flowers too. As you can see here.
I live in Sweden and write for a living, as a journalist and writer. In this blog I talk about my mother Gunvor's work as an artist, my travel around the world and a lot more.

More fishes...
Some days ago I gave you some photos of a fishmarket in Borneo, Kota Kinabalu. Here is some more photos from the same place.
But this time, it is dried fish, that they use a lot in Malaysian cooking. And I can safely say I do not like to eat that at all. Small ones above.

Here is some of the bigger ones.
Here is the market again, fish and sea food everywhere.

Fish - but no chips
I like to eat fish, so long at is not whith bones in it. Anyhow, I love to see what they have to offer in fishmarkets abroad. These photos are from Malaysia, mostly in Kota Kinabalu in Borneo.
These are red, have no clue what tipe of fish it is, maybe you know?
It was mostly women that sold the fish here, in Kota Kinabalu.
Here you have some more shining fishes.

New flavors
One really good thing about traveling abroad is taste new flavors, new food that you have not tested yet at home.
Sometimes it is going to be amazingly good, other times not so much.
The women here in the picture is from a small foodmarket outside Kota Kinabalu in Borneo, Malaysia. She sold small pies and homebaked bread.
Here is a pic from abowe, where the food market sold there home made stuff, you can see the rain forest in the background.
The other photo is from one of my hotel's in Borneo, Malaysia. Is just the spice section - where you could add some hot spices or sauce to your plate.
