How We Live Like Locals in MALAYSIA 🇲🇾
Рет қаралды 15,133
Күн бұрынWe love Malaysia and wanted to give you a glimpse of what our lives as foreigners in Malaysia for one month looks like. We are living in Kuala Lumpur - well just outside in a local area for a month. In this video, we will show you some of the best local Malaysian food we eat frequently, how much the food costs and how much groceries in Malaysia as well as other costs.
Thank you for watching! We've listed below the locations of where we ate and spots we highlighted in this episode.

What a great life in Malaysia u two have ... Good friends, great food, very affordable living, great facilities & safe from major calamities, disasters, typhoons, cyclones, volcanoes, tornadoes etc ( except for flash floods sometimes ) and where crimes and scams are not as rampant and prevalent as some countries .... Seeing if from your eyes as foreigners, Malaysia is quite a nice place to live in which we locals sometimes took it for granted ... Thank u Greg & Jumi for this lovely video ...

We are grateful to have met so many friends in Malaysia. Makes it harder for us to leave the area for an extended period of time to travel around. Couldn’t agree more - so many positives about Malaysia and we love being able to stay here for relatively long periods of time that we are allowed to. Thank you very much for watching and the thoughtful comment 🙏
