Exploring Kuching Malaysia

Darul Hana Bridge and Sarawak Parliament Building Kuching is one of the most exotic and beautiful places I’ve visited in my travels. The tropical weather requires considerable adjustment for those unaccustomed to heat and humidity, and a daily swim in the lap pool helps! Kuching Apt Lap Pool Daytrips I’ve been exploring the surrounding areas but have had difficulty booking daytrips. There aren’t…

(The racers continue on to Japan through the Himalayas. They start to climb over the jagged peaks of the mountain range, that are covered in a blanket of snow and wind.)

LEG 4: SOUTH AFRICA > JAPAN

14,735 km

AANG (V.O.): Every racer’s nightmare is scaling the Himalayas. Our longest leg yet, and a treacherous one at that.

(Marinette follows the railroad track through the winding valleys of the mountains.)

(She squints against the snow when she suddenly comes across a tunnel.)

(She tries to climb over the mountain, but loses her courage the higher she goes until she gives up and turns around.)

MARINETTE: No.

(Marinette loops around and heads back toward the tunnel. Her eyes narrow in determination as she enters the confined space.)

(Inside, she turns her wingspan diagonal.)

(Sparks begin to fly as she scrapes her wing tips and tail against the walls of the dark passageways.)

(She hears the sound of a train whistle from the other end of the tunnel.)

MARINETTE: Whoa!

(As she accelerates, the train conductor sees her in the tunnel approaching ahead. He applies the brakes, sparks coming off the train’s wheels.)

(As Marinette closes in, she and the conductor both close their eyes tightly, bracing for impact.)

(Everything goes white for a moment, then Marinette finds herself encompassed in soft pale clouds. She effortlessly glides forward, brows furrowed. As the clouds break, a mountaintop lush with green vegetation and waterfalls appears. Marinette slowly descends and lands on a runway leading to a large white pagoda with brown rooftops.)

MARINETTE: Uh... (ECHOING) Hello?

(As she comes to a stop at the foot of the building, she looks up to find three geisha women.)

MARINETTE: Is this where I’m supposed to be?

GEISHA WOMAN: That is one of life’s great questions.

MARINETTE: (GASPS) I’m dead!

FEMALE JAPANESE RACE OFFICIAL: Dupain-Cheng-san. Nihon e Yōkoso.

MARINETTE: I don’t understand. Have the others left already?

FEMALE JAPANESE RACE OFFICIAL: Actually, no one else is here yet. You’re in first place.

MARINETTE: Really?

New Video: Alice Phoebe Lou Shares Dreamy and Summery "Shelter" @alicephoebelou @bighasslemedia

Cape Town-born, Berlin-based singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and JOVM mainstay  Alice Phoebe Lou grew up in an intensely creative home: her parents were documentary filmmakers, who took a young Lou to piano lessons. As a teenager, Lou taught herself guitar. When she turned 16, the JOVM mainstay went on a life-altering trip to Paris to visit her aunt. Armed with an acoustic guitar, Lou…

LEG 3: ITALY > SOUTH AFRICA

8,917 km

TOPH (V.O.): It’s our third leg and we’ve already lost several competitors to equipment failure.

(In the air, Fei’s plane fails, eliminating her.)

ZUKO (V.O.): But the real story here, Toph, is Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

TOPH (V.O.): Absolutely.

SUKI (V.O): She’s passing one flier after another.

SOKKA (V.O.): That’s right. She was raised by bakers, and certainly isn’t powdering this competition.

(Fans watch the race as Marinette flies with Zoé, Aeon, Max, and Jess, then Chloé, Marc, and Mylène.)

AANG (V.O.): What’s next, Katara?

KATARA (V.O.): This could be Dupain-Cheng’s leg, all the way. The racers have to fly under a hard ceiling of 1,000 feet, stay under the clouds and in the hills.

(Mai and Ty Lee see Lila flying above the designated altitude.)

MAI: Number 86 is disqualified.

(Marinette spectacularly climbs the leaderboard by overtaking Nathaniel and Alix, then performs a radial-G turn past Marc.)

SUKI (V.O.): What a move!

KATARA (V.O.): Incredible!

SOKKA (V.O.): Look at that radial-G pass!

When 2 of my faves on different soaps meet & hook up.

Elite's Ivan spent some time in South Africa in S4 of Blood & Water and had fun with Puleng. 💋 🥂 🪷 🌺

(I enjoyed it for what it was, a fun fling that was mostly unproblematic and angsty especially compared to their other romantic relationships. They didn't try to make it more than it was considering Ivan's limited time at Parkhurst but they definitely found something special and appreciated in each other. Good chem too.)

New Video: South Africa's Mikhaela Faye Shares a Slickly Produced, Hook-Driven, Feminist Anthem @mikhaelafaye @heygroover @romainpalmieri @DorianPerron

Cape Town-born and-based singer/songwriter and producer Mikhaela Faye specializes in music that draws from her degree in jazz, but also informed by the punk rock, indie rock and hip hop that were part of the soundtrack of her teenaged years. Interestingly, Faye has made a name for herself through collaborations on a number of locally produced and released house and hip-hop tracks. It shouldn’t…
