I've been staying in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a few years. I enjoyed the tropical weather a lot!
Since KL was developed from the tropical forest, so you feel like staying with all other animals all along! I always pass by squirrels, monkeys, lizard and even snakes while i was driving on the road!
one of my friend even bumped into an elephant family when she was driving through the highway at night. you know what she did then? she just pulled her car over and watching the daddy elephant followed by his son and his mother at the end walking slowly across the road, each one of them holding the tails in front with their long noses! isn't it amazing?
once my fren and i driving along the highway and we had to stop to wait a big lizard (about 1.2 metres) to went across the road very slowly. we were so excited and when we think about the camera, he had already disappeared!
Come on and share your experience living/travelling in the cities or places, it will remind you those good old memories....

I have been born and brought up in Mumbai,India and still live here.However i have been to a few places like Chennai(Madras), Bangalore,Simla,Chandigarh,Agra and New Delhi all in India. The lasting impressions however are of Manhattan,New York and Muscat in the Sultanate of Oman where i worked and spent four years. I consider my Muscat stay as one of the most entertaining and best periods of my life. It was a voyage of discovery for me as my life underwent a complete change there. When i returned to my home city i was a different person altogether.there are so many wonderful experiences that it is impossible to recount everything but one of the most memorable one is my midnight trip to mountains in the desert with my friends, armed with a telescope, binoculars and cameras to see Haley`s Comet which was making a comeback after 70 odd years and which i would be able to see only once in my lifetime since it will make a comeback again after 76 years.The desert sky was ablaze with all the stars and planets and the comet could be seen clearly amongst them all.
