I like how open minded you guys are by trying foods and experiencing the cultures. That’s what makes this worthwhile. Sailing Zaharia is a waste. They are sailing around the world looking for American food and only diving. It’s like what is the point of traveling the world if you aren’t going to experience the countries and become enriched. I’m so proud of you guys.

Awesome. Love you guys. Been following your channel for a year now, but this is my first comment - well since you are in our country. I've been to Penang a few time. Laksa is often the must-try kind of food, anywhere in Malaysia. Each region has it own unique taste. Thank for visiting Malaysia. Hope you have a lot of fun in Penang. Yeah beer is expensive in Penang - go to Langkawi an island to the north - there it cost you less than one Canadian dollar.

I lived in Penang for 7 yrs leaving in mid 1963 as a 10 yr old. My Dad was in shipping. Did his Masters Certificate. Capt. J W Cook 😁. Seriously. John known as Ian which is Gaelic for John. He wrote a book about his working life based out of Singapore and Penang. “Those in Peril”. I went back in 2005, then 2007 and 2013 with my husband. Amazing to see the memories of my childhood come alive again. The smell of “stewing” flowers and vegetation as we disembarked the plane. Your video was a lovely reminder. Thank you.

Penang is the island I grew up on. 🙂❤ I am Malaysian, my great grandfather is British and sailed to Malaysia in the 1800s, married a Russian lady and had a bunch of kids which one of them was my grandma.. My grandma married a Chinese and had my mom. 🙂 My Dad is Japanese Chinese. Melting pot!

Welcome guys to my homeland....i was born there in July 1967.....the name of this island is Pulau Pinang (pulau means island, Pinang is a fruit chew by people you guys saw in papua - the red color, i think it's call bettlejuice).....in 1946 to 1957 the British occupied our homeland, they called it "Penang".....welcome to malaysia 😍👍

The one Ashley is eating is called 'Wan Tan Mee'. I know cus I'm from Penang. Thank you for showing the world our diversity and culture. 💓💓💓I love ur videos!!!❤❤❤

This is why I'm loving your channel even more, you go and mingle in the diverse cultures where ever you are, and give a true account of it surroundings, other channels I've unsubscribed due to there lack of content of culture experiences or they repeat the I've got it better than you attitude ...and wouldn't dare set foot on some of the places you've gone , or it's not good enough for them to video or visit ...Thank you for all that you do in bringing us videos from your journeys/travels...may your needs be met when needed, and lend a hand to those in need when you can,take care be safe and can't wait until the next video...

Happy Mother’s Day. First of many to come

Being land locked isn't a bad thing.....gives you a chance to put some new episodes of your adventures out there. Can't wait to meet your Hokulani for the first time....you own bright star.

I enjoy these videos of yours SO MUCH...it's all about learning and interacting with other cultures...THAT'S exactly what travelling is all about...it enriches you...thank you for another great video😍😍😍😍😍🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙

That was some Awesome editing. You guys are pro videotagrephers, that video was so well done.

Between you two, SLV, and Zatara, I'm sold. Selling everything, buying a Cat....traveling.

Truly inspiring I wish to one day to sail the world because of you thank you so much for still putting out content and sharing your experiences to the world.

Kue teow, prawn noodle & laksa noodle..these are the food they are well-known here in Malaysia. It taste different in other state, and more expensive..I ate prawn noodle every time I have a chance when I was there. Very cheap & taste good

What an insight into this culture 😍 feel like I been there! Thank you for sharing 😍

Hi, im a new fan. Thank you for sharing your adventure! Im a boatbuilder that lives on the island Gotland in the baltic sea. If you ever sail here, i would love to give you a guided tour!

What separates Nahoa from SLV & Zatara is Ben & Ash submerge themselves into the culture of where they've sailed to. They document these people amongst their own culture that doesn't just teach us about them(the natives), Ben and Ash, but also upon reflection; ourselves. Thank you guys sincerely. It's also done with an unbiased perspective...w/o promotion of their own agenda. I'm a Christian and love the Lord but I also love people. (As the Lord did/does) The lives and events they capture and the ways in which they do so, we DO NOT get from any other sailing channel. There is no reason these two shouldn't have as many followers, if not more as SLV/Zatara. (Of which I am 100% supportive of) This video blessed me; thank you Ben & Ash. Please keep up the stupendous job of your documentary that you call your life. I live near the U.P. & I feel a connection w you guys & our "native" cultures. Continue to be genuine and we look forward to your sailing adventures on the 22 footer😁🤟

Should of bought the old dude some tires. I've always wondered how those "tuck-Tuck" peddlers would fair in a bike race.

I love Penang, probably the most fun stop sailing from S'pore up to Phuket back in the 80'S, would anchore off George town, right in front of the town clock, great street food for sure, feel very lucky to have experienced that part of the world, before it got discovered, over a period of 20 year's, i sailed both coast's from Singapore to Thailand, plus Indonesia, good times for sure, i worked as a Oilfield Diver, out of S'pore, and in between job's, i would sail all over the place, i would leave my boat anchored some place, and go out on a job, return 2 week's later, and no body touched the boat, that was in S'pore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia.

there's them face cramps again from smiling to long in one stretch. damn you nahoa. : ) the diversity there ....idk what to say. it brought a tear to my eye. why can't every place be like this? what a GREAT episode. thankyou.

I'm new to the channel, and I think y'all are straight up awesome!

Well this was one of your best, great tourist video and music was ace. Also congratulations on the little one. Looks like Ben is now pregnant 👍👶

lol at Ben’s narration 😂 Always so obvious when you are reading from a script vs talking from your heart. Love your channel and adventures!

I like this video so much ,because all of the place you guy walk around is my home town ,i was born in Penang ,thank you and stay safe .

I really enjoyed watching you both haha and being with the locals.. I love the way you guys treated them.. ❤️❤️❤️

im from malaysia... and i recommend you to visit our most popular place name Pulau Langkawi 💙😁

Chicken feet is one of the most delicious part to eat, it's okay to eat, because the outer layer skin peeled off before it was cook... try it....it really delicious...

That was a Bob Marley size incent. Thanks guys for the video.

i love that place , I'm stuck here in the states and wanting to go there asap.

The black stuff is “charcoal” to cook chestnuts

I routinely approach people from many cultures here in Canada and ask them where they are from and how they are enjoying their new life in Canada...they are always very welcoming and somewhat surprised

The laksa you are eating is penang laksa is mixed with different ingredients herbs and spice made by the local, and the small you are referring to is call the wanton noodles 🍜. Origin from china. And the popian is from Asia. Popular food in Singapore and Malaysia.

Thanks for the memory stimulus. Stayed in Georgetown a few times in 1979. The food was amazing....especially the peanut dipped lambs kebab. sticks.

Oh you guys missed malacca city next to strait of malacca! famous for its unique history and is one of the major tourist destinations in malaysia. highly strategic state position for international trade routes was once a well-known international trade center in the East. traders anchored in malacca, especially traders from arabia, china and india, traded at the port and from there were born many of the descendants and tribes that exist in Malacca to this day.

In Thailand my wife and I always ate street food whenever possible.

Best place to eat in Penang... GURNEY... Penang Laksa.. Tamarind Gravy with Sardines

Love the vids cant wait to see more of Canada hope yall are staying safe and doing well

The roasted chestnuts are awesome anywhere you go. When you head out again, please be cautious as to the pirate areas.

Thanks again for another awesome video! Better than a great movie! Happy Mother's day Ashley.

Can't wait for you two and the baby to get back on the catamaran love watching you two. You both are amazing and we are planning on doing the same as you both did.

We eat those chestnuts here in the UK too, in the colder months :)

I have a McDonald sticker on my car too. It was a promotion campaign, get a free ice-cream or something when drive-through.

I’m from Asia. My westernized stomach may not be able handle street food anymore. Even though my tastebuds misses them everyday. Glad you didn’t get sick.

I don’t remember them adding as many commercials in the past

FINALLY you reached malaysia

Happy Mothers day

popiah. content are shrimp. jicama eggs. and dried pork

Hi...I'm originally from Penang...and now live in penang.

Im following ur utube since beginning of ur journey... Now u are in my country... Welcome and be safe with world pandemic issue.. Take care ...

I liked that you paid extra to that person.. They are called tricycles.. Very common in Asian countries... When we were kids, they used to charge INR 5 for a 4 km trip.. But, we used to walk and save that money...

You actually got my teacher in one of your shots hahahah. He's the guy in white garb wearing a white kopiah (traditional Muslim headwear) at 8:30

Penang... foodie paradise... don't leave Penang until you try everything... and welcome to Malaysia

thx you two, happy for a new video from you. stay healthy

Hey hey i saw the fishing i always go at beach streets. Xinan pro. One of the best in town. Beach streets have alot of shop vendors selling boat accessory

Hi ash and ben wish you lots of adventure there . takecare . am from Mauritius

G'day Ben and Ashley. Safe travels and enjoy. Greetings from Australia.

One thing you failed to mention in the video is that Georgetown, the capital city of Penang is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Also, Malaysian isn't a race, it's a nationality. Just like Canadian isn't a race, it's a nationality. Malaysia is made up of three major races - Malays, Chinese and Indians. A correction on the thumbnail for your video - it should be, from left to right: Indian (you've got this right), Malay and Chinese. Glad that both of you got to experience the melting pot culture (and food) of Malaysia as it is truly unique. Oh, and Happy Mother's Day!

Thank you guys for sharing!!!! Awesome video

I think Ben was food drunk at the end of this video! Safe travels ❤️

VIP sticker at McDonnel, ask at the counter. They will give you the free car stiker.

Happy mother's day to you Ashley.

i guess that you still here in Malaysia due to the lockdown.. stay safe

Thank you for all the great videos.

Your t shirt reminded me that I've got a fresh 8 pack of Luckies in the ice box, I better go crack one

Would you consider a more up to date cat for when your baby is born ? Your boat is lovely but there are so many floating apartments around now. So comfortable and spacious and performance cats. Having a baby puts a whole different perspective on cruising so I am interested in what your thoughts are xxxx

With The Mc Di sticker , You get FREE drinks&Food in drive thru ....🤣🤣🤣

Hello sailor, I had anchored near the Penang Bridge, the sight was awesome at night...

Such beautiful people.

14:36 Which one of you was pregnant again??? Hard to tell there!

How do you pay for everything and you go to different countries with different currencys and some places don't accept credit card how do you pay for thing? And could you make it a video

I love you Ben and Ashley!

penang is a food paradise. cheap and good food

OK, so now I'm really hungry! Thanks a lot. :)

I have travelled extensively but always get nervous about eating street food. How often have you guys gotten Delhi belly? One of my favorite sailing channels ⛵

Cool food adventure, you guys have made me hungry!

Welcome to my country!!

Awww i want to go eat there, when i was in china i asked our warehouse manager to take us where the local people eat out and ordered what i thought was giant prawns in a sweet chili sauce, was absolutely delicious. the next day in the taxi i asked what is that sound in the hedges like very loud crickets, he said thats what you ate last night, they are cicada, errm flies... tasted good :-)

Another great one!

Congratulations Baby Sailor.

First, Ashley, HAPPY MAMA's DAY!!! Second, THANK YOU!! Third, I know you are sailing ahead of the videos, IF YOU CAN, can you let us know, haveyou decided whether you are going north, to the Suez Canal? Or south around the Cape of Good Hope????
