Are we scared of the Coronavirus?
Many people have asked us how is coronavirus situation in SE Asia. Is there the same or worse panic like in Europe or USA? I am not sure. It is very hard to say. Asian people wear face masks anyway when they have a cold, or allergies or simply to protect themselves from air pollution. We didn’t notice more people…

New Year in Kuala Lumpur
It was the beginning of December when we had to leave Sri Lanka and finding a fairly cheap flight and accommodation was a bit difficult due to incoming Christmas and New Year. The cheapest option was Malaysia again. We've been there a few times before and we feel comfortable in Kuala Lumpur so it was no brainer for us to…

Johor Bahru Malaysia
We went to Johor Bahru mainly because we wanted to make a fast one or two day trip to Singapore. When you look for an accommodation in Singapore on Airbnb many are in Johor Bahru anyway so we thought it's a good way to save some money (Singapore is quite expensive) and visit two places at the same time.

Scary, Creepy… and peaceful. Riviera Bay Condo Malacca
We've arrived at Malacca Central by bus. Airbnb host sent a friend to pick us up from the station. To be clear, we didn't ask for it. We were going to take a taxi/Grab, but the host said it's not a problem and he's going to make sure someone is there waiting for us. The ride from the bus station…

Tamarind Square, Cyberjaya, KL
We've been to Kuala Lumpur before so this time we didn't look for an adventure. We wanted to find a place where we can simply relax. Especially after some weird experiences in Vietnam and Cambodia. We found this place very affordable and it even offered us some extra "features" that helped with saving money.

While Thailand looked like nothing we’ve ever seen before, Kuala Lumpur felt a bit more familiar in some ways and completely different in others. It’s undeniably a huge city with skyscrapers and fancy shopping malls and cars, but you can also find a lot of shacks made of corrugated steel plates and corroded and manually patched cars. After a month…

Scott’s Gardens KL airbnb
We stayed in Scott's Gardens apartment for a month. It is in a very good location between Twin Towers and Sunway Pyramid. Getting around the town was not a problem using Grab. Everywhere was relatively nearby. Location is one of the biggest positives of this place. Another huge one was the view! Amazing huge window with a view!

Kuala Lumpur – Arte+ Airbnb
After the adventures in Bangkok we were a little bit better prepared when we arrived to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. We bought our sim card at the airport, took some cash from ATM there and ordered Grab taxi instead of those waiting already at the airport. This part was surprisingly easy. Getting to our Airbnb not so much... again.
