Memoirs of a Travelling Foodie: Raining Ringgits in Kuala Lumpur

Let me start off by saying that Malaysia was absolutely phenom. Got a taste of a little bit of everything; the bustling capital city of Kuala Lumpur to the seemingly laid back nature of the north west island of Penang. Technically Kuala Lumpur wasn't our first "official" stop butttt it kind of was. Our itinerary for zee trip was as follows:

Depart via plane Wednesday evening for Singapore (night time ish) & arrived late that night/wee hours of Thursday

Depart via bus for Kuala Lumpur from Sings early Thursday afternoonish and arrive in KL in zee evening

Chills in KL from Thurs-Sun

Depart via bus for Penang from KL early Sunday morning and arrive in Penang in the afternoon

Chills in Penang Sun-Thurs

Depart via plan Thurs evening for Singapore, connecting flight in KL+6 hour lay over and arrive in Singapore Friday morns

Chills in Singapore Fri-Sun

Depart via plane Sunday morns for HK

Complicado right? Meh, it was worth it so no bother. Anywhoo, back to KL aka Kuala Lumpur - fantastico. This is def a must see on your adventures in South East Asia. We had about 3 days in the city & I feel like that is enough time to see most big attractions, meet new friends, discover delish food & have some chills wherever you may be. So what did I do? Visited chinatown&little india, strolled the infamous "Petalling Street", learned that Jalan actually means street (true story), climbed the Batu Caves & the gazillion steps, almost got attacked by a ferocious monkey, checked out the luminous Petronas Towers, checked out some temples, experienced a "fish pedicure" and roamed the streets like the lost tourist I was. Oh and ate mucho mucho, duh!! Fave part? Definitely the Petronas Towers - they were so gorgeous & it was extra nice since we met up with some friends from school that happen to be in KL. Where did we stay? BackHome Hostel, which by the by is ranked #1 hostel in Malaysia & let me say it def lived up to its name. Great staff, great location, great room size, just great overall! Enough w this bantering, time of photographic memories. Take a look!
