My own recommendation

Malaysia because

* there are not too many tourists there,
* it is not "too far" from where you are,
* there are wonderful relaxing places

Now where in Malaysia, you can avoid places like Lankawi, etc. which =20
have a lot people.

So east coast (photo above) of Malaysia Peninsula is less traveled =20
than the west coast. There are mountains with parks in the center of =20
the Peninsula.
The Borneo island part (Sabah/Sarawak) has an important number of =20
National Parks with trails in the mountains and tropical forest.
