Welcome to Litsy!

Not book related, but I wanted to share this stunning sunrise from Langkawi, Malaysia. This was one of my favourite stops. We learnt about the legend of Mahsuri, who cursed the island for 7 generations when they mudered her after being accused of adultery by a chief's wife who was jealous of her beauty. Her ancestors are still alive, and 7 generations have passed. Will be reading more on Mahsuri

Just what I needed!!! I had the flu, bedridden, was feeling very sorry for myself, picked this up. I found myself thankful for my bed to be sick in, and thankful that there are humans like Deo in existence. Cured me of my poor-me‘s. ***Story of the Hutus and Tutsis is very eerily familiar...the blood feud between farmers and herders going on for as long as people have been settling into existence and talking about it. #offtheshelf #traveltales
