Malaysia

It’s been a while since we’ve had a big city exploration day. As you may have read in between the line recently, we hadn’t loved Malaysia. But it turns out we just didn’t love Penang. So far, one day in, Kuala Lumpur has been awesome. We didn’t get any breakfast stuff for our Airbnb so…

Boring transit day today. I feel like these posts are always the same. We woke up late and took our time getting packed up, and then checked out of our Airbnb at 11. We took a grab to the airport with plenty of time before our 2:30 flight. It was empty and we are flying…
