3-month spending in Malaysia
This time in Malaysia we cooked more meals at home but our groceries were done mostly in big shopping malls so definitely not the cheapest ones. Although, we didn’t really have much choice since all the places we stayed in were far from any local markets. Similarly, any restaurants that we visited from time to time weren’t the cheapest ones…

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. A…

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…

At least that's what we thought when we bought tickets. The bus wasn't at all what we expected though. It…

Series of unfortunate events in Vietnam
Our trip to Vietnam didn’t start well. We were so excited to go there we couldn’t sleep the night before. We arrived very sleep deprived and extremely tired. When we got to our Airbnb location, we couldn’t find the place because the building was brand new and there were no numbers or whatsoever there.

Bali, paradise with ants
Our adventure in Bali didn't start too well. Our host was supposed to pick us up from the airport. The problem was we didn't know how he looks like, he didn't know how we look like. He did have a card with my name on it, but we later found out it was written with a really thin red pen…

Is Kuala Lumpur worth visiting?
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!
