    Another great video. Thanks a lot. You are the first vlogger to visit the smaller towns in Malaysia. It's so refreshing. I certainly have never been to KS, and I think a lot of locals haven't either. Keep it up.

      I enjoy the smaller cities and the towns more than the big cities! 🙂

    Monsoons are the seasonal winds that bring the rains. Not the rains themselves.
    Umbrella season!

    There is a bus station in Kuala Selangor town. From Kuala Lumpur's ultra modern TBS bus station, you could get a bus to almost most towns in Peninsular Malaysia, including to Thailand and Singapore. I am surprised you had difficulty getting to Kiala Selangor. You could have enquired at the many ticketing counters at TBS Terminal.

      Mate, it’s not as bad as people think! They’re always a lot cleaner than some hotels!

      @olderbackpacker yeah if i think about it now.. Who knows what people do in hotel, compared to hostels where you share room with everybody else you couldn't do "weird things"🤣.. So i think you're right hostel is much cleaner

    Another popular town nearby is sekinchan - known for its padi fields and seaside village as well. It's more local feel and more laid back compared to Kuala Selangor. Another town a bit down from Kuala Selangor is tanjung seat - also a nice day trip tiny local town.

      I checked out Sekinchan but it’s really expensive for the accommodation :/

    Invest on a (cheap) raincoat for you and your backpack and a contractible umbrella that you can keep them small in your backpack from Mr DIY :DD I'm sure this weather will be the same until March next year if your land route are from Malaysia, Thailand, Myanmar and Bangladesh.

    Try hitchhiking and try Malaysian hospitality especially in the most remote areas where tourists are a rare sight. Stay at the kampung houses or if in Borneo (the longhouses), etc.

    • @olderbackpacker

      I’ve not seen one hitch hiker in Malaysia! I wasn’t too sure if it would be safe?

    I remember trying to get Ubers in Somerset and Devon, no chance. It makes life difficult when you can't get a ride, especially if you get caught out by the rain. The hostel is cool.

      Even in my home town up north! Ubers? What’s them lol. Hostel is awesome but no WiFi!!!!

    I can guess what happens on the next day. It has been raining non stop for the last 2 days. Stay safe, don't get caught up in a flood somewhere.
