I am an expat in Hong Kong, but am in Kuala Lumpur almost every other month and I have lived in Kuala Lumpur previously. I can assure you that Andrew is very honest and accurate in what he says about Malaysia
Thank you so much 😊
G'day Taylor, I have booked a 4 bed / 3 bath two-story house in Palau Tikus, Penang for ten weeks from December to Feburary. The total cost is $2080 US, ($3160 AU). The house is 200 metres from Gurney Paragon Shopping Mall. I am looking forward to living in Penang rather than just visiting for a short visit.
Sounds great! Enjoy 😉
Great video Taylor! You showed two units in Miami Green in Penang; we stayed in the second unit you showed for 6 months. It was only US$500 per month when we stayed there, but it was during the MCO and we got a great deal since tourism was so low at the time. We loved our time in Miami Green and would stay there again. The thing we liked about that unit was that it didn't share a wall with another apartment, so it was very quiet. I loved hearing Earl Gray express his opinions during the video, it sounds like he gives two paws up to all the places you showed.
😂
Hello Taylor, I love how you break down the prices for us. Thank you for doing the research! It was surprising how inexpensive the prices were for short term. I am planning on staying anywhere from 3-6 months, so far Malaysia seems like one of the most affordable places to go and stay.
You are so welcome!
As an adjunct to the hair treatment you are using, try this.
Buy a large potted Rosemary plant and a small bag of cloves.
Strip one branch of the Rosemary leaves and add a couple of teaspoons of cloves.
Boil up with tap water for 15 minutes. Keep adding water until you finish with about 3 cup of liquid. Leave to cool and strain off the liquid. Massage liquid into hair and scalp 2 or 3 times a week. Leave to dry naturally and do not wash out for 48 hours. If you are alone when you massage the liquid into the scalp, put a plastic bag or shower cap on your head for a couple of hours to keep your hair and scalp wet a bit longer. This is a slow treatment but you feel and see some effects from day one.
Hi Taylor, so good to see you again and you look good!
I noticed that Mini Studio 8 is on LRT (light rail transport) Walk so distance from city centre doesn't matter. Easy travel.
Love your short term rental videos, I'm Malaysian and I'd love to travel short term too. Definitely Penang. Also East Coast of the peninsular, Malay traditional culture and way of life, the clean and beautiful beaches stretched all along the East Coast is some thing I miss.
Your short term videos reminded me to go travelling.
Yes it does!
Taylor, please make a video of your travel to the East Coast when you visit there. Would be very useful for planning my trip.
Thanks!
Anything less than USD$50 a night is cheap. In California where I live, 3-star hotels are usually > $200 USD . My monthly electricity bill is about $250-300. Thank you for spending the time and sharing, Andrew. Edit: Forgot to mention, makes me sooooo eager to move to Thailand! Hopefully soon!
Good luck to you. 😊
Hi Taylor 👋🏻 I so enjoy your videos and appreciate your time and generosity in sharing. I often watch your videos in the evening. Quite often, I put them on and fall asleep bc your voice is so soothing 😊 So I then have to replay as I miss parts 😅 Lovely to hear Earl Grey in the background ☺️
Thank you so much!
Great news abt yr new hair Taylor!!
Thanks for taking the time to do all this Taylor! Very interesting 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
So well research! Bravo!
Thanks CK ❤️
Ty for all your hard work ❤
My pleasure!
Some handy knowledge there, Taylor, congrats on your recovering hirsuteness!
Thank you!
Thanks Andrew I like the format you are doing the video and explaining the prices. 👌
Glad you like them!
Thank you for this wonderful video. Dear Andy, enjoy your weekend.
Thank you! You too!
@@andrewtaylor4558 Thank you. 😀
Hi Taylor, I think your hair looks great!! Thanks for the great video 😊
Thank you!! 😊
Great video. Your hair is looking good. As always great information for anyone looking to go to KL and Penang. Hopefully, one day soon will be able to put all these wonderful recommendations to use. Cannot wait. PS would love to see/hear about journeys from Malaysia to other nearby countries. How difficult or easy it is to get to other parts of Asia. Love the idea of train travel. 🙂
Informative and well done as usual. Thank you.
Very welcome
Really appreciate your videos. They're always so well researched and informative! Thats awesome, the hair product seems to be doing a pretty good job!
Thank you so much!
New Subscriber here. Thank you so much for this video and adding prices, description etc. This is so helpful since I am looking for a short term 2 mo option. We are American couple looking. Would love to see you do apt, room, and condo tours. Will be there Nov, Dec 23'.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Andrew. Great video. I am not sure if you have done a video on hot humid weather in Malaysia and how you adjust to it?
Yes I have. czcams.com/video/HskmTbKC0XI/video.html
Great video Andrew!! And, I like the ad for hair growth. Hope all is well. 🧡💛💚
Thanks so much!
Hi Andrew good morning happy weekend 🌴good idea information 😊 let's explore ahead ⚘️⚘️take care
Thanks 👍
Hi Taylor, your hair looks good, I was wondering how that was going 👍 very informative video 💖 we live in short term accommodation, so it’s interesting to see your comparisons 😊
Thank you! 😊
Nothing like a well coiffed man ! 😉
Thanks for the apartment info 👍
You bet
Well done , Taylor. Deeply appreciated ! Some great deals in KL apparently . Is there any advantage in going to see local property agents are or there unexpected pitfalls along the way ? All the best .
Agents don’t do short term rentals as far as I know
Such a helpful video. far cheaper than what I thought. I won't likely ever get a long term visa for Malaysia so short term rental is the only way for us
Glad it was helpful!
Good video !
Thanks!
Thank you so much Andrew for this video. This definitely answers my last curiosity on when I decide to stay KL or Penang for 90days.. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you ,this is a great video for people coming for vacation and running away from the winter and the snow 🌨️ and I see the price is reasonable for a month from 500 to 600 for even one person also thank you for the hair growth I will try it it seems working 😅😅 see you soon.
You are so welcome!
Thanks they are good and informative
Will buy your Taylor20 in case I need it
Great video Taylor. The (probably irrational) fear I have with these high rises, and especially the ones near the ocean is the remote possibility of them collapsing like the Surfside condominiums in Miami USA. But the smaller complexes don't have any resort facilities I presume, and not really geared towards renters.
All have rentals. 😊
Interesting hair growth
Thanks!!
Thank you for the price comparison. Surprised to see KL appears to be more affordable than Penang. All the best to you and to Mr. Earl Grey.
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for sharing
Mr.Taylor, I appreciate you for taking the time to do the research and provided the information. One question, can one get around in Batu Ferringhi, Penang, without a car? Thank you!
Pretty much, it’s not that big.
Thank you 🙏🏼. Can you do a video how you got rid of everything in the US to become an expat? And your thinking around downsizing?
Yes I can
@@andrewtaylor4558 🙏🏼
No offense Andrew but Tune Hotel is part of budget airline, Air-Asia. You might have to pay for extra air-con and facilities, like flying budget airline but they might have packages. Studio Armani Permatang Pauh is not on Penang Island but on the mainland - far away from Georgetown - not really for foreigners. Bayan Lepas is near the airport but relatively distant from Georgetown.
Yep
This was very helpful. I think the prices are great. Hoping to visit there. Would like to move there if visa restrictions lighten.
Loving your new baby hairs! So exciting. Do you know if it works on women with thinning hair?
Glad it was helpful! I’m sure it works with women but check with the company. Copenhagen Grooming.
Must be careful as many of these products have side effects on female hormones.
You are good thanks much
I use Zinc and Seline supplements for hair growth. It works wonders
Thanks very much for super video 😊
My pleasure 😊
Nice hair dude
They do scalp steaming and massage in Malaysia
Thanks for the info
You make it easy to understand especially by giving the amount in US dollars. You don't get too complicated. I hope to retire from here in the US in the next few years. Maybe then live a year in Southeast Asia to see how it fits me. . I like what I've seen on Kuala Lumpur, You make KL sound very good on the wallet too. I've never been but I have been to Hanoi and I like that it can get chilly there in the winter. Hanoi might be too traditional for me for a whole. year though.. I've watched several of your videos. They're all good.
Thank you so much 😊
Andrew, thanks a ton for showing us that. My wife retires in 4 months and I’m about 5 years out from retiring. We don’t know where we want to permanently live, but are seriously considering staying in a few places for a month or two. For me Malaysia is definitely on the list now!!
Great! Thanks 😊
thank you. great information. and the prices, what are people wanting if they want lower rates? especially if you have usd to spend :)
Batu Feringhi. Is there a video about it? Sounds very interesting.
I’m sure there are many. Search on CZcams
Where did you get you houndstooth shirt from Andrew? The one on the cover pic of this video. Thanks
Hooshirts.com
My partner and I may go there during Xmas. Would love to meet up but not sure how to do that on CZcams.

Nice to see your lovely face again
Hey, thanks
Hi Andrew, I see you wear glasses. Where do you get new glasses fitted? Do you know a good optometrist and how much it would be to get a pair of new glasses?
I got mine in Penang. About rm 1200
The pool at Midaris is tiny
Good to know!
Hello Taylor, I am Neville from Qingdao China. Have you ever been to Johor? I am working on a real plan to make my first trip to Malaysia soon with the intention of also doing a border crossing into Singapore for a few days. Any tips?
Haven’t been to Johor yet. 😊
Lots of apartments for rent in Johor as they hugely overbuilt last years and most condos are nearly empty. Thus Prices are very reasonable. It is a very big area and some condos are quite remote, so look to stay near the Causeway to SG, Dunga bay condos are excellent.
Monthly hotel room is a lot less than what i pay for utilities in melbourne
I pay $110/ Month for gas and electricity and $25 /month for water in Melbourne.
😳
@@michaelobrien5366you must be economical. Our power bills and gas bills are rising by another 25%
The water rates now include other charges called NAV
I have a 3 bedroom townhouse in melbourne and my bills in winter is $980 for 3 months for electricity, $250 water, $680 for gas 3 months
I am a local.. living in landed house in Johor... my water bill here is around RM 6-8 pee month (around 2 USD), electric 200 ringgit (40 USD).. for gas we usually use cylinder gas stove that last about 3-4 months for occasional cooking at RM29 (7 USD), unifi wifi RM94 per month (21 USD)... I am and should be grateful to be born and living here...not to mention for public health care in goverment hospital we just pay rm1 (0.25 cent) for medical inspection, treatment and medicine every visit
@@saynurul285 thats great
But is the medical care of good quality in comparison to your privare hospitals?
Hi Taylor , Coming to Malaysia on “Digital Nomad Visa” so who should I reach out to lease reasonably affordable 1BHK apartment.. can I lease before I reach Malaysia or should I have to be there to initiate the search ..?
You should probably do it when here.
It’s funny .. l was JUST wondering how the hair growth journey was coming along
😂
Is Penang Airport or KL Airport a good place to exchange money or is it better to do it at the bank or somewhere else in the city? Which place has better rates?
I usually went to the Money Changer at Gurney Plaza.
@@andrewtaylor4558 Great. Thanks!
How's the global inflation effecting Malaysia?
It’s not that noticeable. For one thing petrol prices are controlled by the government which keeps prices low.
We will wait for 5 months to see the result before make decision.😂
Sorry Taylor as you saw, noway for me to test your hair product 😅
🤔
Wow for a month only or more ?
Yep
Hey Andrew, I know you're probably tired of being asked, but is it possible to live comfortably in Kuala lumpur on $1,700 a month?
Yes but getting a long term visa would be an issue.
if you want something really cheap you really need to travel out of KL central.. say half an hour ride on the MRT.. that's not so far away.. you can get a one bed apartment's for less than 2,000Ringit in Beautiful Putrajaya or cyber jaya..
Good tip!
hi am north indian punjabi singh live in malaysia kl
Nice
Any idea on what a nice 3 bedroom in a full amenity building in Mont Kiara would run if a full year lease?
We enjoyed our visit and are thinking about spending a year there next school year as a family
Average probability around rm 3,000
@@andrewtaylor4558 Omg so inexpensive. Thanks Andrew. I figured it would be double that. If you have an agent who can help to find spaces I’d love the connection.
Yes
Your hair is LUSH
😊
But why Malaysia taylor ? USA, really that bad ?
Just can’t afford to live there.
Sorry Andrew but this video was hard to follow. You cite all these prices and distance from city center without context. You don't show photos of the places and maps of where these different apartments/condos are. The video was not very useful to me.
Sorry about that can’t please everyone. Many found it helpful. Besides, it was just to give an overview not show actual places available.
@@andrewtaylor4558 this is true. Sorry, easy to throw stones at the glass house. Appreciate the effort.
@@jesuisrobert808 I very much appreciate your response
