so today is a bit of a different Adventure since we met some amazing locals yesterday
we really dived deep into the local culture ate some fantastic food today is going to
be a complete contrast of that where we really want to showcase that there are two sides maybe
even more sides to Kuala Lumpur than you think and what we initially thought as well since we
spent three years in Southeast Asia we kind of expected Malaysia to be just the same as
every other country that we've been to here in Southeast Asia but we were completely wrong so
we have come to bukit bintang which is in the center of KL and I think this will show you
exactly what we're talking about we're going to one of the most popular attractions here in KL
so much happens here there are always so many people and we're going to show you exactly why
from what we can tell already we are just surrounded by Louis Vuitton Gucci Bulgari
Cartier oh my gosh it's just like brand Galore this entire building behind me is Louis Vuitton
and when we're walking in this area we kind of feel like we're in New York we all know that
New York gives us a Vibe Of Anything Can Happen dreams can come true you can get anything you
ask for and that's the vibe we got as soon as we arrived here in KL except for fact that Cuisine
is exquisite cultures are vibrant and the cost of living is about compared to New York
everyone's just taking selfies everywhere and look at the crowds of people over there
oh they're doing something they're doing something what are they doing
what's happening I don't know something's happening some commotion as you can tell
this is the Hub where everything happens I want to find out what they're doing foreign
this is kind of crazy I have no idea what's going on but it's like really cool everybody
is dressed up in their traditional way I have no idea what's happening but I'm really curious to
know what's going on is it okay if we ask you a question but we want to know what's
happening today oh uh today uh we have this event called we celebrate our Malaysia day

asking a friendly local now we know that's why we understand why everybody's wearing their beautiful
outfits hi sorry you look amazing I just had to tell you that yes so we just heard that it's
Malaysia day so we wanted to ask you a question if that's okay so can you tell us about your

I'm wearing a 1950s and a 1950s hits bar yeah and the sarongati actually these are vintage I love

in conjunction of the current office around event to come together and to celebrate diversities and

but if you look beautiful thank you absolutely I had to come and speak to you thank you meeting
you nice to meet you as well thank you so much wow I absolutely love what they're wearing today
everybody looks different everybody looks colorful and they're so happy to celebrate being different
being unique and I think that really reminds me of being at home being in South Africa because
we were so different as well but we're all United and I love that about Malaysia
we just met some lovely people hello how are you Ireland in England wow thank you so much
for watching nice to meet you both bye-bye so lovely we just met some really lovely people and
they just watch our Vlog oh it's so refreshing and actually heartwarming to meet them they're such a
electric Vibe here in KL and we kind of feel like we're in Times Square something like that yes
you could just stand here and just watch all the people and you get that energy from them foreign
malls are pretty cool in and itself but what about going to an International Food Court
where you can literally pick a country any country that you want and feel like you're
having lunch right there you can get food from Mexican Japanese Thai Morocco Korean
and malay we had the most Exquisite Chinese hot plate and it was only 10 Ringgit and you would
think well in a fancy mall like this you pay 10 Ringgit for lunch and it was out of this world
we're in an international City getting food from all over the world people from all over
the world and today happens to be Malaysia day so it's extra special that we're out
hey man we've now decided to have a coffee at a restaurant called the loaf and it's beautiful
because it's got see-through glass windows you can Overlook everybody outside still in their
beautiful costumes and we thought we'd see here at the Pavilion it's only cost 12 ringgit thank you
oh good it's a coffee Macadamia Danish it looks amazing previously we had some Roti tonight on
the street in a really local setting and we're surrounded by all the high-end shops and now
restaurants like this so there are so many different sides of KL and that's why we were
completely blown away since we've got here we just got our delicious coffee that we're
gonna have with our little treat and since it's Malaysia day we actually got two for one coffee so
I'm really happy about it and since we're comparing Kuala Lumpur to New
York we want to show you our apartment to stay to show you that you don't have
to break the bank to live in a really nice place let's go
let's go so we wanted to actually share where we're staying with you because since we were
talking about New York there's actually a guy on Tick Tock that spends 950 on his apartment
and if he laid down his head and his feet could touch both walls of his apartment so we wanted to
share with you that we get so much value right in the heart of KL starting with the kitchen
we've got this beautiful white kitchen with a washing machine and if you've been living out
of the same bag for three years a washing machine is really important and over here
we've got a really nice open air lounge with a smart TV where you can watch all of your
favorite YouTube channels Please Subscribe if you haven't I think Emma is super happy to live
here now off to the bedroom where we've got our super extra extra large bed it's literally fit
for not even a king but maybe like seven of me one two three four five six 7. now that we've
established that let me show you the best part of our room since we're on the 51st floor we get the
most Exquisite views of the Patronus Towers we just never get tired of looking at them
this bathroom is super fancy and it's quite large I mean for our apartment
this is perfect for a couple we've got a nice waterfall shower huge Basin really
nice mirror but the best part of living here at Star Suites has got to be the rooftop pool
foreign look how cool this view is not only do we have the most amazing pool but we just get the
most awesome views of the towers I mean what more could you ask for and since this reminds us so
much of New York you're actually paying a third of the price so I think we're gonna have to come and
take a dip later as we said before the view of the Patronus Towers from our room was pretty cool but
I think this is hard to beat since Malaysia has a 90-day Visa it's pretty easy to get used to a good
pool Gym Wi-Fi a good place to say I think it's perfect for digital Nomads or Travelers on the go
