    I really loves watching your videos of your journey in Malaysia. Frankly, many of the places that your went.. I still haven't got a chance to visit yet. so I have to say thank you for showing me those places.
    I know now you're in Singapore & I you have a chance to comeback to Malaysia, please visit Sabah & Sarawak in Borneo, East Malaysia...the nature & the multi ethnics live there are beautiful. There are also beautiful islands, beaches & I hope you could connect with the peoples of longhouse. Keep going, guys.

    Most Asian dishes are definitely not subtle and It is very flavorful and wakes up your taste buds... That's how we like it...and that's why we go crazy over Durian... :)
