Your trip in one sentence A quick stop to KL on my way to Bangkok
Why did you travel there ? It was on the way to Bangkok so I figured I'd might as well stopped
How did you get there ? Took a bus from Singapore which was easy, cheap and fast
Where did you sleep ? I stayed for one night at the Matahari Lodge and for one night at Suzi's guesthouse. Two good but very typical backpacker hostels.
What was the biggest cultural shock ? I was very impressed by the deep mix of the three main cultures constituting Malaysia: Malays, Chinese and Indians.
What was your most interesting encounter ? Four kids who invited me at their table while I was waiting for the rain to stop in a MacDonald's. They asked me a lot of questions about France, my trip and my girlfriend... Awesome kids! I was very impressed by their knowledge of English and their humor.
Tell us a story that happened to you there Nothing exciting really...
What did you do at night ? Wandered around for a bit but I was quite tired after walking all day.
Your favourite local food ? I loved the Chinese and Indian food. I did stop by a Burger King for a whopper too...
Will you go again ? I will go if I can have people showing me around as I'd like to discover a bit the less touristy stuff there...
