Malaysia was a fun country to visit. I had no set plans for it when I arrived and just went with the flow of what people said to see and do. I wish I would have gave myself more time for Malaysia as it’s not a big country, but it is spread out and there are many things to see. I never made it to the east side of the country that is connected to Indonesia but will have to save that for another trip sometime. In 7 days I was able to see it’s capital and all its highlights, one of their most beautiful islands and drink tea in the highlands. Not bad for a weeks worth of traveling but if your going to go to Malaysia I would recommend a couple weeks at least.
In some ways I think its a better option for a backpacker then Thailand. Yeah Thailand has the night life, crazy beach parties and cheap food but I found Malaysia to be better in a lot of aspects. Over all I thought it was a little cheaper, people were friendlier (Go-go girls in Thailand don’t count as friendly…as that’s their job) and everyone speaks English. If I come back to Asia again I think I will make KL, Malaysia my hub next time. With Air Asia’s headquarters there you can get a flight to about any country in Asia, direct, for less then $80 USD. Countries include: Bali, Hong Kong, Singapore, Manchu, Taiwan, China, India, Thailand, Cambodia, Sir Lanka, Philippines, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Laos… plus cities like Perth, Melbourne, London exc make it a great option.
Below are some streets shots of people I got while there. Just random pictures captured here and there and found people were more then willing to let me photograph them here in Malaysia.
