Hi, and thanks for dropping by.
Si.Baju.Melayu is a little corner of the internet where I share stories from my travels, not to impress, but to reflect. You won’t find luxury resorts or curated checklists here. What you will find are honest moments, quiet streets, local flavours, and the kind of places that don’t always make it to glossy brochures and that’s the beauty of it.
This blog is guided by the spirit of wasatiyah (moderation). I believe in travelling with intention, finding joy in the simple things, and learning from each encounter, whether it’s in my own backyard or a village across the border. Either way, every journey has something to teach. This space is where I collect those lessons, one story at a time.
If you enjoy slow journeys, heartfelt reflections, and the idea that travel doesn’t need to be grand to be meaningful, then you’re in the right place.
