Desaru

Here is Desaru. A beach, or put it better a collection of beaches and resorts, in Malaysia only one hour and a half from Singapore. It's like going "Shomal" for vacations.


Note: Tehran is just few hours from the Caspian sea and we are so used to flee from Tehran to the beaches (they look very different from what people refer to as beach in other countries ;) ) and beautiful forests along the shore. Only few days off and the roads from Tehran to this coastal area and reverse are jammed. If you like driving (as I do) you can go every weekend if you want. And if someone goes to the Caspian sea for vacations they just say they went to "Shomaal" (شمال) which mean the north.

The yellow fruit was new to me, I can't remember the name though, or may be it was one type of passion fruit. The only thing I know is I ended up having a sore throat for four days after tasting one of these.

And here are some snaps from Shomal (northern Iran):
