It's been a stopover for many years but whether it's just a one night or multiple day stay I've never been disapointed visiting Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. In this episode I give a brief update on the pandemic situation and share some of the highlights of my trips to Malaysia over the years including Malaysian Borneo. From Brickfields, KL Sentral, KLCC(City Center), Chinatown, Bukit Bintang, this is one of Southeast Asia's most diverse cities. If you're a food lover you must put this city on the top of list of places to visit along side Ho Chi Minh City and Bangkok. Malaysia overall offers such a huge variety of experiences to hiking in the jungle, viewing incredible wildlife, relaxing on stunning beaches, and immersing yourself in cultural and food exploration.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia-Best Visitor Guide To The KL Monorail/LRT/MRT/Batu Caves I've put together a basic simple guide to what most visitors need to know to get around on KL's LRT/Monorail and trains. At first glance the lines can look a little on the complicated side but provided you're staying in a typical tourist center, like KL Sentral, Bukit Bintang, or around KLCC this guide should provide you with all you need to know. The KL Monorail, Kelana Jaya line, the newer SBK Line, and the Komuter train that takes you to the Batu Caves will get you to most popular landmarks and sites around the city. It's also helpful to be familiar with KL Sentral as this is the major hub for transportation which includes buses to and from both airport terminals, the KLIA Express train to both terminals and other trains. By the way there are shower facilities available for a nominal fee at KL Sentral. They were really handy one time when I had an 8 hour layover coming from Nepal while waiting for my flight to Taipei. A nice quick refreshing shower made my day while visiting KLCC just before Christmas. Even though in the video it looks like I only use tokens, this was only for demonstration purposes. I recommend if you're staying longer than a short layover to get a KL Touch 'n Go card. They are super convenient and you will feel it was well worth the nominal 5 Ringit purchase when you see the line-ups at the token machines during rush hour. Here's more on the Touch 'n Go card:https://www.touchngo.com.my/CMS/Personal/Products/Touch-n-Go-Card/About-Touch-n-Go-Card/As English is an official language of Malaysia you will find instructions and signs in English everywhere! Hope you enjoy the video and it helps you have a smooth stay in one of my favorite cities of Southeast Asia!

I do enjoy my visits to Malaysia as always. I've spent lots of time in Kuala Lumpur visiting all of the important sites and enjoying some of Southeast Asia's best food. This trip was no exception. KL is for the most part one of the easier cities to get around with a MRT/LRT train system that for the most part serves all the areas a tourist or visitor would need. There are exceptions but gone are the days of getting frustrated trying to find a taxi driver that refuses to use their meter-Grab has solved that issue. One thing I've noticed in recent years are the abundant choices of Middle Eastern food, particularily in the Bukit Bintang shopping district. I visited Daab, a Persian restaurant and enjoyed a wonderful fish kebob dinner as I watched the downpour of an average evening during the rainy season. This was my first visit to Penang an the Unesco World Heritage city of George Town. I've visited many cities across Southeast Asia with their own old street or neighborhood, made up of old shop houses but I've never seen as many in one place as in George Town. In fact, George Town has the most pre-WWII buidlings in all of Southeast Asia. It truly is a jewel, the only thing missing is everyday life. It appears to be more a living museum then a place for normal life in Malaysia, hence the importance of the beautiful street art by Earnest Zacharevic. A reminder of what life was one like on these historic and remarkable streets. Of course Penang more than ever is known as a food destination and the street food capital of Malaysia. High quality street food and hawker centers/coffee shops are everywhere. If you're a Westerner all of it is easily accessible with a population that is mostly fluent in English it's very easy to ask about the food that's being served and to request if say you'd prefer not to have chicken, pork, or seafood/fish in your order. Although I found there weren't as many adventure day trips available as there are in East Malaysia, (Borneo), there are some interesting hikes, and other spots to visit on the island. You would probably need to book a tour or rent your own transporation should you want to get out of the George Town area to explore Penang Island further. Thanks so much for listening.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Singapore are both great travel destinations that have their own flavor. While staying in the Bukit Bintang area of Kuala Lumpur, we had the chance to take in Chinatown, several of the massive malls, and check out the Petronas Twin Towers. There are temples to visit, tons of street vendors with spicy food, and street entertainment every night of the week. Singapore is in a class of its own living as a city in the future. It is clean, safe, and luxurious. Beyond the beauty of the downtown area, you can visit the ethnic neighborhoods of Little India, Chinatown, and Arab Street. We give you the advice you need to make the most of your time in both of these beautiful destinations.

It is close to night markets, street entertainment, and plenty of bars.  It rained a lot while we were in Malaysia. You might want to check on the best times to travel before booking your trip.  Chinatown in Kuala Lumpur is a great place to find deals on knock-offs.  Sri Mahamariamman temple is a site to see. Extremely unique.  I attended the TPC Kuala Lumpur PGA event after my buddy Vince came through from the States with a VIP entry.  Singapore has the world’s best airport. It is gorgeous and something you should spend extra time visiting.  We attended ITB Asia which is a large Asia-focused travel convention. Definitely worth our time as we learned a great deal about the travel sector. We found that Singapore has a lot of similarities to Hong Kong: 96 Hour Travel Guide.  The Marina Bay Sands is an epic building with a mall, casino, and fun waterfront area.  Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice & Noodle is a humble street-food stall and the world’s cheapest Michelin star restaurant.  Singapore is ranked as the Best Country for Expats to Work In.  Be sure to check out World Barber Shop Adventures to find out the differences of barber shops around the world.  Make sure you understand what to pack.

Congolese, Roth Mikoungui, a support engineer in Kuala Lumpur, talks about his career, his Malaysian experience, dealing with his hectic schedule and his favorite place in Kuala Lumpur, Bukit Bintang. Here's some of the stuff we talked about: 1.34: Roth is the first Congolese we've met so far! Apparently, the Congolese community in Malaysia is very small because many of them who leave the country prefer to go to China, Europe, and the US 7.26: Apparently, Guineans have a big community in Malaysia. I haven't ever met anyone from there. Or maybe I have and didn't know. 9.53: Some foreigners (or just people who've never been at before decided now was the best time to crowd around the people recording and take pictures. That's all the discussions you hear in the background for the next few minutes. 13.00: "Before I used to be very sexy with a six-pack, but now I have a family pack, so..." 14.23: "They are black like me and they have jobs, is there any magic involved? No. If they can

In part II of my walk through Jalan Alor Food Street in Kuala Lumpur I stop to talk with a Durian seller, check out some of the street musicians performing in the surrounding area and chat more about the culture and food of Malaysia. Jalan Alor is quite easy to get to from most places where visitors stay in KL. You can walk from Chinatown, about 15 minutes or if you're around KL Central Station you can take the monorail to Bukit Bintang station and walk 5 minutes. Don't bother showing up before 6pm as they still might be setting up tables and chairs for the evening. This is not really considered a night market as there are mostly sit down restaurants, but there are a few food stalls around. There are also fruit sellers selling whatever is in season. Lychee, longan, rambutan, mangosteen, or if you're daring or lucky, you'll be there for durian season and can finish off your meal in a most traditional Malaysian way with the king of fruit! For my most recent meal at Jalan Alor I dined at Wong Ah Wah. I ordered grilled stingray,(small portion), squid fried in batter mixed with squid eggs, some gai lan wok-fried with garlic, and rice. Total cost was 79 ringit=$18.40USD. The stingray was perfectly grilled, moist on the inside, and came with a spicy dipping sauce. This was my first time trying squid eggs fried with squid and it was almost overwhelming rich, but wonderful. The gai lan was fresh and delicious and I washed it all down with a large Tuborg beer, Tiger wasn't available. Ordering beer is not a problem anywhere along the Jalan Alor but if you've been traveling for awhile around Southeast Asia you will notice prices are higher compared to most anywhere else. For a 633ml of Tuborg I paid approximately 17 ringit=$3.97 USD. Vietnam is one of the cheapest spots for beer, with 450ml bottles going at some street stall restaurants in Ho Chi Minh City for $.70USD. There are lots of great restaurants in Kuala Lumpur but my favorite place overall for experience, food, and value is Jalan Alor!
