Out of the thousands of travel RUclipsrs I've watched visiting Malaysia, you're the only one who's stopped by a local library. It really shows how much Russian people value knowledge.
I traveled to Malaysia very often.. It's very diverse, and has a lot to offer if you travel around. And the people are amazing.. Very honest and friendly
Loved the vibe in Malaysia, the people were welcoming and are clearly very Intellectual. It seems like a place worthy of much longer exploration at another time. Thank you for this little glimpse of the city and some if its infrastructure. Looking forward to the next stop 😊
I am looking forward to my next visit to Malaysia. Again Kuala Lumpur, but different side of the city, away from the city center. Definitely a place for more exploration
No, traditionally the rice in nasi lemak should be coconut milk rice (strong/soft taste of coconut milk). you can tell just by smelling it. If you find ordinary rice in nasi lemak, it means it is not authentic nasi lemak (failed nasi lemak). as a national food, the main part of nasi lemak is the rice.
That library was my friends and I's hangout place after school. we spent hours and hours there every day doing homework & studying. back then it was one of those cool libraries as it has many comfy spots for reading, hot drink vending machines & massage chairs. seems like there has been a major upgrade now in the library compared to my school days. I love figuring out the train system every time I go to a new country. it's fun seeing the difference in each country. but of course, it can be a hassle too
Just think, we went from, this is what groceries cost for me and my grandmother in russia, to him blowing up, traveling and hundreds of thousands of people waiting for the next update ♥ cheers to your travels friend.
@@NikiProshinIndeed! It's an incredible story, but I think the most important part of your story is that you're happy. Stay happy, for yourself and for the rest of us (>^-^)>
Great video. I like how you interact with local people and avoid the crowds. Reading in the park and discussing books is so special! Wishing you all the very best for 2025.
Really enjoyed your video Niki, I have been watching you since back in the day when you were home checking out grocery prices, then the "special operation" started and thankfully you are safe.
👋 Hello Niki! Thank you for sharing your Malaysian experiences! Malaysia Looks nice there! I'm always impressed with how quick you settle yourself in a new country and surroundings. Piece of cake for you! Experienced traveler for sure! Enjoyed seeing the architecture, different food's you tried, the library and the friendly people you spoke with. Enjoyed this video very much!👍❤❤❤❣️😊
agree --- Penang & Kulim are very nice & toured the countryside around Penang with some co-workers around 2003-5 -- wonderful people and young demographically with Chinese well-represented as well as the Indian tech diaspora sprinkled in. thanks for showing KL - very pretty city and fairly inexpensive if you can rent and enjoy for a few months. hope you can make it back and show some more.
The local coffee is from robusta beans, stronger than arabica or liberica coffee in the west. The coffee beans are roasted with caramel and margarine. A few other coffee variations are "cham" (coffee+ black tea+milk), "hor kar sai" (coffee with Milo - a chocolate malt drink). The type of milk used also is indicated by the name : "kopi see" (pronounced "c") is with added evaporated milk while "kopi susu" (milk) is with sweetened condensed milk.
Hi Niki, just for your information, a ‘storage space’ you were describing, in the library, in the US, we call a locker/ locker compartment, or the locker room, as it pertains to the whole facility.
Beautiful city ~ loved looking at those skyscrapers! If you're still there, or when you go back again, do one of your incredible grocery store tours! 🤗👍
Public libraries are great for travelers! If you ever visit the city of Calgary in Alberta province of Canada, I highly recommend their main public library. It's architecturally beautiful inside and has some really educational and interesting exhibits. In North America, public libraries are always free to visit and hang out in.
That one thing you ate were crackling. I don't often get hungry but that sound! I'm so glad for you to travel the world! Once you settle down, (if you ever will) you'll have knowledge not contained in any book. You look happy and healthy! I like your hairstyle.
When I was young last century I use to follow my mum to Central Market .it was a wet market selling fish meat veg etc etc. then it was change to cottage industry. There was even a 2nd hand book shop . Now it has evolve with good court. High time to go again
You can find Nasi Kerabu and east malaysian dish at Kak Som from Kampung Baru district. There is amazing Nasi Lemak from Wanjo at the same area as well. In the evenings, you can find Ramly burger and satay (meat skewer with spices) that comes with peanut sauce.
Awesome video...i likw it when u go n enter the national library...me as a malaysian haven't been to the national library coz maybe im living at the other side of Malaysia that is Sarawak on the island of Borneo...do come to the other side of Malaysia n i bet u will learn more about Malaysia.. anyway hello from Sibu,Sarawak
@meowiguess903 yeah?? Hahahaha now u know that i havent been to both...coz someone that is not form Malaysia is telling a Malaysian the difference between both 🤭🤭
Niki every video is such a good surprise. You always show what is very local. But I never thought I would get a book recommendation. I do like Asian ghost stories and I'm going to get the book that nice young woman Alia recommended.
Roti canai for breakfast is usually not for Europeans. We are different, in terms of staple foods, tastes and tongues. Some of my acquaintances from Europe who study here in Malaysia are the same, but in a year of living here, every morning they look for roti canai / nasi lemak etc. and eat like a local. Now they are back in Europe, and they say they miss Malaysian food. You can't really get to know Malaysia in just a few days. in this video, You only learn less then 5% about Malaysia.
Once you travel outside the big cities in Selangor and KL, you will discover lots of villages and forest in other states. The difference in lifestyle, the living pace and modernity level is significant. KL and Selangor when combined contribute almost 40% of Malaysia's GDP.
of course, but even within KL itself and greater Klang Valley, there are many nature around. just around the Zoo Negara are there are many spots for hiking & camping & waterfall. even near Bangsar you can find hiking spots. you just have to know where to look.
Visiting Malaysia is basically coming to try good variety foods with many culture. 1. Chinese & Sub Varieties Chinese Cultures Food. 2. Malay Food. 3. Indian Foods. 4. Japanese. 5. Koreans. 6. Japanese. 7. Westerns....
Sounds like you had a good time! but the title of this video seems to be a downer Library is really good. unfortunately many US young prefer devices and social media over reading books.
Visiting the city only shows the modern world. You should visit the rural or perhaps Taman Negara in My hometown. While driving to Taman Negara, we were laughing when we saw 4 tourists sitting on the back of a 4x4 Pick Up. We don't do that as Malaysian. Best of all most of the building side by side the road are filled with small size "House", I guess those tourists would wonder how can anyone stay is such small house.
"not very often, only once per 7-10 minutes" (I chuckled - that's incredibly often for most of the world haha!). I think even Bangkok doesn't get below 5 minutes right? I can't imagine that waiting for 10 or even 15 minutes is a big deal for any urban travel pan (work or pleasure). You guys are spoiled in Moscow!
1000 Miles Niki. Love it. Stayed there a few times last year, and always better to have a room with a window view (their central ones not so good). Sam (slightly older woman with a headscarf) on reception, she was great (edit.. see her in the background of 4:19 ) Do miss KL
Uhh... whats with the lighting issue when Niki touches his head on the roof of that aircraft? Looks.... wrong... lol. Thanks Niki for another great one! Love your content, please continue to make such great videos!
Niki, I’m very disappointed in you complaining about the difficulty in figuring out the KL metro. I have heard others complain of similar experiences. However, there are Transportation apps easily available for free, that you could have down loaded. Generally if you enter where you’re going, the app will tell you how to get there! Please remember this for other cities, in the future!
@@svetllama yes. My children love reading books since primary school. Including Harry Porter, Chronicles of Nahnia, Hunger Games, Mocking Jay, Eclipse, Twilight, Enid Blighton books, etc
WELCOME sir.. If ujust in kl, mean is u are not to know well about Malaysia, go arround Malaysia and meet malay People and malay food.. Than i can call u are in Malaysia,.. This is malay land
There we go with our old russian youtuber... travel is painfull in crap space airplanes.. and food is horendoys unless first class whatever not all planes gives crap food but its just the current situation and you end up with stomach pain for a while. i can feel your pain travelling a lot these days for work... 😅 anyway im to drunk for this... 😅
It was Roti Chanai until wise guy Bang Non changed the spelling system that has let to bizarre pronunciations of words. Another good example is Air, it used to be Ayer which means water.
Yes welcome to Malaysia my dear Russian people. We will always support Putin and Russia. Ura Putin ura Russia. Stay here for more time please. Big love from Malaysia...

Not Russian people, but Niki. Just Niki. Let's not generalise.
Yeah, that Putin reads too much Russian history producing fantasy in his thinking
Every human has their own perspective of view. Agreed, it's not about race but about individuals. They have their own rights based on what they feel.
@@ghakindye736 Let’s not generalise? As some still support dictators like Putin and Assad.

Hey Nikki, I was in Malaysia 2 weeks ago! I always love visiting Malaysia- it's so chill!

I went to Malaysia as a boy in the 80s. I think its changed a lot since then!
@@EASYTIGER10 - wow. In 80s.. Malaysia develops every 2-3 yrs phase.
The Malaysian restaurant in Tucson used to be my very favorite. Their cuisine is a fusion on cultures. I love it.
Malaysia looks like a really awesome place. It's very friendly to English speakers too. I'm surprised by that
Karena Rakyatnya enggak ngerti bahasa melayu makanya bahasa melayu enggak Laku disana

Hi Lori! Glad you've enjoyed this video, I've surely enjoyed this short stay in Malaysia
❤️❤️❤️❣️
Thank you Nicki for reminding me how much I love Malaysia!❤️
1000 miles, It's the same hotel that i was staying, the lady who is working in the reception is super nice.
4:14 I love the city scape. In most US cities, this mix of large and small is discouraged by complex zoning overlays.
I spent 10 weeks in Penang and KL early this year. I developed a wonderful addiction for Kopi C. Great country to visit and stay a little longer.
agree --- Penang & Kulim are very nice & toured the countryside around Penang with some co-workers around 2003-5 -- wonderful people and young demographically with Chinese well-represented as well as the Indian tech diaspora sprinkled in. thanks for showing KL - very pretty city and fairly inexpensive if you can rent and enjoy for a few months.

Welcome to Malaysia, this is a wonderful place for many reasons. Do explore Malaysia and share your experience
The only person visited library. I like this kind of traveller 👍
Your hair cut looks so great!! So handsome♥️♥️
David and Goliath story is inside Al Quran, if iam not mistaken in Surah Al Baqarah, in Arabic is the story if Talut and Prophet Daud
Hi Niki, just for your information, a ‘storage space’ you were describing, in the library, in the US, we call a locker/ locker compartment, or the locker room, as it pertains to the whole facility.
15:12 peak hours we get 3 minutes interval. Commonly 5-9minutes. Off peak and late nite more than 9 minutes.
Thank you for the video. Hope you enjoy the trip. From Sabah.
Thanks, Niki. Makes me want to visit Malaysia.

I'm really enjoying your videos Niki. Great content, well edited, nicely narrated.
Nice video Niki. Excited for more!
Oh man, I miss the library, I took it for granted. Now I'm studying in another state and the library is.. meh.
When I was young last century I use to follow my mum to Central Market .it was a wet market selling fish meat veg etc etc. then it was change to cottage industry. There was even a 2nd hand book shop . Now it has evolve with good court. High time to go again

That was gooooood!

Central market back in those days use to be a wet market. Selling vegetables & meat…which is not air conditioned.
Niki every video is such a good surprise. You always show what is very local. But I never thought I would get a book recommendation. I do like Asian ghost stories and I'm going to get the book that nice young woman Alia recommended.
