    I don’t recommend walking around at night by yourself. I did a free city tour at night and a day time city tour that I booked on Airbnb. I prefered the city tour I purchased on Airbnb hosted by Ummi. It was more informative and professional. Also she is well traveled so check her out! It’s a great tour for introverted solo travelers.

    Love KL and I have been there many times with countless videos I have made in that city. Good to see sister's like you are travelling to this side of the world. Keep it up and you have earned yourself a new sub. If you ever consider visiting China maybe we could collab.

    In Malaysia, tap water is commonly used for daily needs. Before the advent of filtered water machines, boiling tap water was a widespread and safe practice to ensure its potability. Boiling water at temperatures above 100 degrees Celsius effectively eliminates chlorine and bacteria, making it safe for drinking and cooking. While most households now have filtered water machines, some still rely on the traditional method of boiling, which continues to be a safe option.
    For personal hygiene tasks such as brushing teeth, and cleansing the face and body, many Malaysians use unboiled tap water without any issues. This practice has been a part of my life since childhood. However, for those who are more health-conscious, using filtered or boiled water for these purposes can be a prudent precaution.

    Welcome to Malaysia. Your video is indeed v informative. It is a good compilation of info to become Malaysia 101 for first time travelers guidebook. You stayed at 3 diff locations. Bukit Bintang is a very touristy area and a v convenient place. It used to be a red light district. Mid Valley is convenient due to the Mall. The Garden Mall is a Mall designed to cater for upper class. Mont Kiara is indeed a suburb as u mentioned. It is popular amongst expats including the Americans, the Japanese, Koreans and the Europeans. As for gigolos, u r indeed v correct, b aware of them. Malaysia is an English speaking country. Those who dont converse in English r the immigrants and people who went to non-English stream schools when there were schooling at primary and secondary levels. They are a lot of love scammers. Anyway, hope u do come n visit Malaysia again.

    Definitely weird about those "love" scammers, but as you say, they weren't Malaysian but "students" or new immigrants. Malaysians would be very unlikely to be like that. The scammers have been known to be from certain African countries but it appears that the police are cracking down on them. Definitely against the law! Hoperfully, other than that, you did have a good experience in Malaysia.

    • @sweetchariot
      @sweetchariot  Před 3 měsíci +4

      During brief conversations with the Malaysian men they were respectful and friendly towards me. That's why I was so taken aback by the gigolo, and by the way he was from the Middle East. The three students were indeed Africans on student visas. These type of situations are also very common in the United States. Immigrants try to find ways to extend their visa or obtain citizenship in the US. I didn't think about it while traveling especially since I was in a new country. Regardless, I had a wonderful experience in KL. I would love to go back!

    Good of you to point out the bills thing. Malaysians are strange. A lot of places would not accept money that is slightly torn/cut. Those shops can easily take a bunch of worn/torn money and get them changed at the bank's but I guess they are too lazy to do that. Are they expecting the public to go to the bank and change just one or two pieces themselves?

    • @sweetchariot
      @sweetchariot  Před 3 měsíci +1
