all right damn i residence here in kl this is the place we always stay in kl
so you guys remember two years ago we already have a video from here but what's great is this year
because it's not covered anymore the place is full right so at the end of this video we will
talk to a bunch of interesting people students and people doing internships and digital nomads
from netherlands germany france japan korea the list goes on i'm not sure who we'll see but the
place is full and we'll ask them um what they like about dmi residents why they chose it what
they like about malaysia why they chose it what surprised them what they don't like so it will
help you in your research if you're thinking about traveling malaysia and especially coming
to denmark right now the community here is really really great and obviously two years ago when we
were here there was no community it was cold times but despite that we still really loved it here and
so we came back on our second trip to caho uh the reason we loved it is because the facilities are
great right so we're going to start the facilities tour believe it or not in our private bathroom
because after three years of traveling it's a great bathroom yeah we have a huge shower
walk-in shower the huge windows and i really love the his and hers sinks just take a just take a
glance at the sinks and try to guess which one is for his and which one is for her
shout out to ivana i get my private sink very nice we have a huge wardrobe with a safe in it yeah you
guys know from our peru experience being robbed uh the security is really great the safe is big
enough to put a laptop which is really really great uh and obviously our room is huge love
the high ceilings makes me feel like i'm a boss right we feel high class in the high ceilings
and the huge windows are just great and as we venture into the kitchen you might imagine that we
do a lot of entertaining in the kitchen because it's so big and there's five bedrooms attached
to it so you might think that we hang out in the kitchen quite a bit but despite its really big
size and great balcony we almost never hang out there because the chilling area on 19th floor
right right beneath my feet on the top floor is like incredible so maybe next we'll go down to the
hangout area there is a co-working space i'll show you it quietly there's probably people working
but the hangout area is really fantastic on 19th floor yeah i love it we spend most of our
time this is where we met all the interesting people from across the globe so next let's go
down to 19th floor and uh check out the awesome facilities at demi residence that's what's cool
check it out obviously pool table is great and huge tv with uh speakers so everybody parties
here and i just noticed this note which is a really uh testament to how safe this building is
it says i found your phone please contact us at the front desk and we'll give us your phone back
so if you stay here and you leave your phone here one night they return
i love that uh we just met our friend desiree over here we just went to the chill zone
uh it's really lively atmosphere in the end of the video you'll see people here
all partying and we'll interview them and hopefully help you with your research right
what's nice is there's a sounder which has tons of cool stuff they planned ice skating
this is karaoke night so this will be planned by the building but what's also nice is that
the community of people here also do their own plans yeah that's nice so there are
every weekend they're going to about to caves or cameron highlands or whatever here's some
photos of all the people that you found wow last time we weren't here it was cool fit so
we didn't get to do any of this yeah last time this board was empty yeah it was ready to be
used but there was nothing on it uh i guess they have poker night and at least one that's right
fun one point i have a kitchen up here now through the kitchen is the
co-working space so maybe we'll enter quietly enter quietly and show you guys the
co-working space there'll be probably three or four people working young interesting people
right so that's pretty much the facilities there's also the chill zone which is the movie theater
i'll show you in a second but i think there's people in there enjoying a movie right now
oh check it out guys i didn't even realize this until now but here on 17th floor
there's another working space and it's sort of uh beautiful and even more elaborate
than the one on 19th floor so plenty of space to do your work i guess this is actually an apartment
like ours but it's been converted into working space with kitchen and then all of the rooms are
really nice working space or meeting rooms uh and again quite big and quite nice
so lots of space to do your work you can sit down here with a great view and do your
work so lots of space to uh do work here at uh co-living there's also a gym which is really
nice yeah because the treadmill has a television i should say netflix or youtube in the trailer yeah
it has literally doubled my treadmill usage that's true once a week to twice a week
that's true because we're watching movies on the treadmill and there's an outdoor gym
that's what right now is a little hot to use but there's also an outdoor gym which is pretty cool
and uh with that i think we showed you everything so now let's wait a couple hours and i think
this pool table area will start to fill in with interesting people and we'll see why they told
malaysia why they chose demi what they expected what the results were good bad and different we'll
get some info for you guys so see you in three two one hey dana oh here go ahead oh nice shot
yeah good one actually our roommate yeah yes so good to see you can i ask you some questions
about your experience in malaysia yeah sure sure okay so first things first you're a student from
germany yes i'm a student from germany but i have to study abroad in malaysia okay so why did you
choose firstly to study in malaysia that's a good question so yeah i chose malaysia because it's in
the heart of asia and i like to travel and i want to be near my family they're from vietnam
cool okay and why did you choose this building demi residence
i chose particular kohler or dharma residence because i heard that a lot of my fellow students
live at cola and because i just arrived one month in malaysia i couldn't like make a lot of friends
i missed the start so that's why oh i see so the community here yes definitely the community
and i love that there are a lot of people from internationally like france spain
japan right yeah right right cool and what have you noticed about malaysia are
you enjoying traveling malaysia have you been around to see anything i've been around like
absolutely in kl malacca and i just like the view and i like the culture and especially the
food the food is right yeah the food is right okay thanks uh enjoy your game who's winning by the way
okay introducing alice who is uh from the netherlands yes although i heard raised in new
zealand said exactly so truly a woman of earth okay first question why did you choose uh damn
i residence what was your research like in order to find this building so i was first looking for
airbnbs but i didn't like the concept of airbnb living in a house and being restricted so
i wanted to look for something where i could meet more people that was one of my goals when i was
here um how can i meet people because after covered i've isolated for like a whole year
right and i just want to like meet people start going out again and of course just to be able
to be myself out there again so um i saw an advertisement just coincidentally and it was hulu
and i saw on the website i was like this can't be real i was scrolling through this girl like this
looks too perfect to be true so yeah eventually i was like okay i'll take your chance on it and what
has been your experience so far good experience favorite part and least favorite part of dmi
once again my favorite part is meeting people uh the amazing people that i've been
like meet around here it's just fantastic uh least favorite hard to say right
hard to say fair maybe my fridge doesn't work that's the only thing
awesome awesome now why were you thinking of malaysia in the first place what
about malaysia sparked your curiosity actually i was blessed by the lord and
no it was uh it was just by coincidence once again um not coincidence but planned by god of
course but i was supposed to do my internship in china um i do international business for asia so i
specifically wanted to go to asia where a country where i could speak mandarin cantonese doesn't
matter okay um and uh my school was connected to this company malaysian dutch business council
okay and i reached out to them they were like we want you on the team yeah i was like wow thank you
wow so coming to malaysia was planned by god what have you liked about malaysia the most that's
of course of course uh favorite favorite food hard to say again right yeah yeah uh
i'm not the biggest fan of nasi lemak but they're but they're but they're chicken
though yeah i'm wearing chicken yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah great they're great
have you picked up any malay words sit down and my favorite word
no like high up you know oh i didn't know that one oh you taught me you taught me
all the malaysians think uh the dutch people here are at thus because they're kind of rich
awesome all right thanks ellis awesome hey friend hi okay what's your name where are you from
my name is divya and i'm from india okay uh first question how did you find out about mi
co living space and what did you like about it uh i was actually supposed to live in my unidorm but
it was not up to my expectation so i just tried to look around you know condos or apartments near
my uni and uh co-living just popped up and when i came i really liked it because we have a lot
of facilities here we have a pool table here and i'm a big fan of pool we have a indoor gym we have
a car park load if you know you one drives your car wants to hire one it's very convenient it's
in the center of kl so i chose uh kohler very well done you're actually the best pool player in that
in the facility that i've seen so far now no no i'm being sincere so why did you choose malaysia
to study in i was actually supposed to be on an international exchange program i was supposed to
do one year in malaysia and two years in uk but uh because of the pandemic my plan didn't go um
as it was yeah supposed to yeah so i just thought why not continue in malaysia because the reason i
chose that was because i wanted to understand the best of both worlds the eastern uh fashion
department as well as the western but oh you're studying fashion yes oh east and west world's
colliding okay most important question what has been your experience in malaysia did you find
a good experience favorite experience what can you say about the beautiful country of malaysia
malaysia holds a very close place to my heart i have learned a lot of things here it's the first
time i'm living alone away from my family okay and because malaysia is so friendly
i do not feel as homesick as i thought i would and there are a lot of cultures over here to learn
from we have the chinese we have the malay we have an indian yeah being indian i it's you know
awesome okay favorite malaysian food uh roti chennai chennai yes i love it you love it
fantastic have you learned any malay words yes okay um
numbers from one to five uh then
um some swear words okay okay fair enough all right uh thank you very much high five
