A Visit In Malaysia







I made a visit to Malaysia last year mainly to see my family, Mom especially. I had the most enjoyable visit since I last visited a few years back. Seeing and reconnecting with family is memorable and priceless and I will do again in a heartbeat when the time is right. I spent most of my visit accompanying my mom everywhere. We hung out at Starbucks Coffee, strolled in morning markets and had old fashion Malaysian breakfast, hangout with her at dialysis treatments (she's a diabetic patient), we chatted about younger days, and we laughed a lot.

Malaysia is a beautiful and vibrant country. It's gotten very congested in big cities, KL especially. Vehicles of all makes roam the streets and cities, day and night markets are everywhere, Western influences...well, everywhere. In fact, KL resembles the big city I once lived in, San Francisco. High rises, new restaurants, cafes, international cuisines, foreign expats, indeed a huge cultural melting pot.

Check out the exotic items in the markets.
