My Blogging Life :
I started blogging back in year 1997, the time where the word blog was not even popularly used. The first post that I wrote is more about my personal life, something like a diary of what I did daily and I hosted it on geocities.com which is no longer available right now. Writing HTML code using geocities.com was really troublesome, so from then, I am constantly in search for a more user friendly platform to post my write up. It was on Thursday, 11 December 2008 where I stumble upon Blogger which was known as Blogspot before they were bought over by Google from Pyra Labs. There I continue writing my blog as my personal diary until I meet a Foodie friend, haha ! Then we both started Pinky Piglet Land on Monday, 17 May 2010.
Pinky Piglet Land :
The history of Piglet's Land goes way back into year 2009 where it started off initially with me and my friend who love to travel and hunt for food. After awhile, we feel that the photo that we took during our food hunt and traveling is taking up a lot of space in our hard disk without serving any purpose. Then we thought, why not we share our photos with the world ? Therefore in year 2010, which is when we write our first post for this blog. We officially started Pinky Piglet Land.
Haha, many people ask me, whats up with the name ? Haha ! Ok, my blogging friend used to call me Piglets because I was really fat back then. I love to eat and sleep most of the time, haha ! Typical piglets right ? The name got stuck with me though I am not as fat as I used to be after many years of heavy work out and strict diet. Me and my blogging friend thought that, piglets would be the best way for us to represent ourselves as someone who love to eat in the blog and since pink piglets is cute, we end up using the name Pinky Piglet Land.
Pinky Piglet Land blog start to change direction on Monday, 10 August 2015 when my blogging friend decided to leave blogging in Pinky Piglet Land to pursue something else more important. Ever since then, I am taking full charge of the blog myself and started changing it to my own blog. I started changing the blog design, the blog writing method and even taken away the name Pinky Piglet Land and name it after myself as Jay Chha.
Blogging and taking photos has always been something that I love doing. Sharing food hunt information with people, giving ideas on traveling, providing tips on places for entertainment and meeting new people along the way is always fun. It is something that I see myself doing for many more years to come.
I am always open for collaboration, review, advertorial and events write up. Feel free to drop a comment or two at my Facebook and Blog or drop me an Email. Looking forward to hear from you all soon.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
