**SAY YES MORE**
After living in England for nearly 20 years i have now returned to my hometown Penang. When i was there i remember an English chap who asked me where did i come from. When i replied it was Penang, he looked astonished and puzzled. 'Are you mad to come to live in England?' He asked me. I found out later that he was a frequent traveler to Penang. I am grateful to have studied and worked in England. Watching your video made me appreciate my hometown even more.
reply to him , I was here bcoz of your conversion rate ....
Took you 20 years to appreciate Malaysia? Bruvs, its 40 pence per litre in Malaysia mate
I definitely feel Malaysia has some great strong points that wins it for us over the UK. We loved our lives in the UK and definitely miss all our friends and family, but Malaysia is such a beautiful place with beautiful people who made it feel like home to us almost straight away! We are so glad we have moved as well. We love the apartment, it looks amazing! ♥
Yeh, the people here really make it feel homely and welcoming!
😍😍😍
The hose pipe is actually called a douche, very similar to a bidet, you can actually find it in the UK with many Asians household who use this to wash their bottoms.
I hope he was joking about drinking from it.. LOL. Yup, it is for cleansing the down stairs...
I truly love the way your eldest daughter narrated your vlogs. She has a kind of professionalism in her tone and delivery actually.
That’s so kind! She will be thankful for the feedback 😊
Glad that your family enjoy living in Malaysia.
The hose pipe in the toilet actually is bum washing after doing business.
Oops 😂
Malaysia is a very nice and suitable for family raising kids❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
Malaysia loves your family for choosing our humble country. All the best on your new journey. Do not hesistate to give us a shout if you guys need anything. We'll be around. Don't worry 🤗
You have a beautiful family, Hutchinsons. Thanks for making Malaysia 🇲🇾 your family's first ever stop. Hope you guys will enjoy your time here exploring the whole of Malaysia and don't forget to sample each and every bit of our food (we have the Best to offer) 😅❤ Hope to watch more of your adventures together.
Thank you so much! 😊
Your children will be so enriched with this experience. They also got to train with others at the club. Hope they make new friends.
Thank you 😊
We love Malaysia! Gary’s haircut in Penang was amazing! Linda had her hair styled in Melaka by an amazing guy right before the big lockdown. As for the bum gun, that alone is proof that the west is not perfect. Compared to Canada, life in Malaysia is less hectic and full of amazing foods. The best part being the friendly and welcoming Malaysian people! ❤️🇲🇾
Thanks for choosing Malaysia. FYI Malaysia has quite a lot of zero miles vegetables you can buy cheap at the wet market. If you ask the different races to show you spinach , you end up with as many different "off grid" vegetables as there are races , grown in someone's backyard.
Thanks for the tips!
That hose in the toilet is called the "bum gun" a.k.a. bidet hose for washing after using the toilets. Asians esp Muslims and Indians, among others, tend not to use toilet paper but water instead. Some use both paper and water for a more hygienic result. Think about it; if you find some dirty droppings on the floor, which is better : just wiping it or, washing/hosing it down with water? I read that this bidet hose and a somewhat high-tech variation using toilet seat/bidet combo (like in Japan) is becoming increasingly popular in the West.
Put in simple the hose pipe is using for cleaning our buttock 😂😂😂
I asked a Jordanian once working with me, like me, they use both bidet and toilet tissue.
I think Mr Hutchinson was pulling your legs about drinking from the hose. 😂
In the west … are you joking….
Wash your butt using only your left hand pls.
Thank you for coming to Malaysia. we Malaysians accept and appreciate foreigners coming to the our country.. enjoy our food, culture beautiful place and others.
Thank you Hutchinsons for sharing a part of your lives with us... and for choosing Penang as the starting point of your wonderful journey! Great to see Chris in our Penang Panthers jersey ("Haria Penang Haria" is our battlecry! - which loosely means C'mon Penang C'mon!). The apartments you are in are wonderful - I have relatives living there. Its such a brave and exciting thing you are doing as a family... I wish you all the best and look forward to seeing more of your adventures! Reach out Tamira if you need recommendations for a good hairdresser - note that not all Asian hairdressers know how to handle an Englishwoman's tresses! Penang is an amazing mix of old and new, fast and slow, big and small... she will grow on you and your family... 👍
Penang has definitely grown on us day by day! It’s amazing here! 🙏🏻
hello sir, I pray that you and your family are always in good health, I hope you feel at home in Malaysia. Introducing me, Indra Sfn, an Indonesian RUclipsr, asking your permission to react to your very good video, to educate Malaysians and Indonesians how wonderful your experience while in Malaysia was. Thank you sir. and don't forget to go to Indonesia, 😂👍🙏
Most of Asian use water bidet/hose to wash our back...more cleaner/hygienic, right, than just wipe it? Same goes with wearing same shoes inside & outside of the house, most of Asian open our outside shoes/slippers/sandals before entering our house...& also we Asian eating rice with spoon, not fork... 😊
Don't stress about your hair. You look beautiful with the new color
Hello you'll welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 hopefully you guys enjoy life's 🌿 let's review more vlog ☆ take care & happy day ahead 🍜🍛🍝🍵🍭
Lovely family and beautiful girls. I highly recomended to go to Cameron Highland or Genting Highland or Fraser Hill as the weather is quite chilly up in the mountain. And a lot of activities for the kids too. Also Melaka/Malacca for some history. Thankyou for choosing 🇲🇾 and enjoy your time here ❤
Unfortunately due to greenhouses for farms, ch is "ugly" compared to decades ago.
Thanks for sharing!!
Good day beautiful family!
That Penang's home kit you put on is simply class.
It really is!
Why not use Malaysia (Penang or Kuala Lumpur) as a HUB. Malaysia is literally center of Asia. With affordable accomodation, cheap flight in/out of Malaysia (at least among Asia or South East Asia), and Malaysia itself is a Family Friendly Country, I think it is a good option. As a UK Citizen, i believe you guys have 90 days Visa free entering Malaysia. Once it almost expired, you can go travel to other country for a month and coming back home to Malaysia.
One question though, why pick Malaysia as your first destination? Have you come to Malaysia before?
Stupid suggestion! You'll get away with it for a few times and then try getting back in and will be refused. Many have tried this and found themselves unable to pick up items they've accumulated and left there expecting to get back. You used to be able to slip money into the passport to get stamped in but not since everything became digital.
@@byteme9718 have you ever heard DeRantau Visa??? Many have done it. Food Ranger, Passport Visionz and many other base in Malaysia while traveling around Asia. They dont have any problem coming in and out of Malaysia as long as they have genuine purpose and legal.
@@wan7696 I have and know exactly what it is. They're not easy to get, require you to have a significant provable overseas income of around RM 110,000 and the application would be another RM 3000 on top for their family. Only the husband or wife is eligible for a digital nomad visa meaning to avoid breaking its terms one person would be responsible for shooting, editing and posting content. The partner must do nothing in the process, cannot do any work in Malaysia and must be dependents.
Digital nomad visas are time restricted, sometimes for as little as 90 days, the same length of time as a tourist visa but allow limited work. Then you have to reapply, prove you still have that same annual income and pay another RM 3000. At best you'll get 12 months plus 12 months and after that the financial requirements start to get very expensive.
Passport Vizions are a pair of clowns and there's no way they have digital nomad visas. This is why they keep making overseas trips to abuse their tourist visa and they will get caught out. They even have a video where they show their naivety where they assume they're just going to apply and become citizens. They're a very stupid couple and when their money runs out they'l be going back to the US, the country they slag off at every opportunity.
What Food Ranger does is allowed and what the visa is intended for and if he were to stay for more than two years and settle other visas would be available and better. He has over 5,000,000 subscribers and a production team to make the videos look as good as they are, that's his income. A family taking holiday videos with less than 15,000, will never generate income because few people are interested and there are so many others doing it. They're a really nice family and I wish them well but the digital nomad visa won't fulfill what they say they want to do. The clue is is the name "nomad".
If they're sensible, have savings and a house to rent in the UK they, and the kids in particular, will benefit enormously for a year or so but I doubt the rental would satisfy the income requirement for the visa unless it was a big house in a nice area. Then of course they'd be paying maintenance, management fees, insurances, UK taxes and would be foolish not to pay National Insurance.
Malaysian immigration can be very unpleasant and often cause problems because that's what Malays with a little bit of power do. Even if you're doing everything right they can still give you a hard time and as I've indicated, the digital nomad visa is very restrictive and probably the last you'd want if you have a family. That said, I very much doubt they have one so will rely on how many times they can work the tourist visa which in itself is expensive as the whole family will have to fly return, pay for accommodation for some time while hoping they'll be let back in. That's assuming they have some permanent base here with the bulk of their belongings. Living out of a suitcase is no fun and border hops into Singapore on the bus coming back the same day soon get picked up.
@@wan7696 I forgot to add, you can never trust what the government will do next and so many people were caught out by the sudden, massive increase in foreign income requirement in the my second home visas recently.
Amazing video! You have soooooo done the right move! Family is everything. You have the most adventurous girls. You have sold Penang to us! Who would have thought that little shy girl I looked after at pre-school would be sharing all this with her family? Enjoy every minute xx
Thank you so much Sharon, we are doing good so far! Penang is truly worth a visit 😊
Hi, That little hose is to clean yourself I believe, but you crack on with that toilet scrubbing 🤣, I guess it is multipurpose
Experimenting with new things 😂🙈
It actually is for yourself, but yes it is multipurpose.
It takes awhile before you find the right hairdresser you are comfortable with. But your new hair colour looks good and blend well with your tan and skin tone.
I lived in Malaysia for years as well as the Middle East. I just want to inform you that the hose pipe next to the toilet is actually for cleaning your backside, not specifically for cleaning the toilet and definitely not for drinking!! These countries tend not to use too much toilet paper, plus using the hose pipe is far more hygienic.
Really glad all of you are enjoying penang
I’m
Looking forward to going there sometime
But I’m going to live in Kuching it’s the Sarawak region of Malaysia
Look forward to see more of your travels 👍👍👍👍👍👍
And I know some one has already said to you that the water hose by the toilet isn’t for drinking or cleaning out the toilet bowl but to clean your bum I for one think it’s a really good thing pitty we don’t have it here in England
Have a great time ALL of YOU ❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍
Malaysia is a good start to build your YT audience, good luck on your adventure.
Can't wait for the next coming up❤ (great video)
Chris, the hose pie in the bathroom is a (bum gun) 🤣 instead of a bidet, you can use it for many things but mainly for washing your (parts) after using the toilet 🤣🤣🤣
Selamat Datang ke Malaysia (welcome to Malaysia)have a nice holidays 🤩
*WELCOME TO MALAYSIA TRULY ASIA ENJOYED*
🇲🇾❤️💙🧡😍🥰🔺💕🌄💕🔺🥰😍🧡💙❤️🇲🇾

Try my home state of Sarawak. After all u guys have a colonial link! The most diverse with 34 indigenious grp but the most harmonious. Big as WM but with only 2.85m people.
Great content , I’m sure Chris can get a job on Homes Under the Hammer with that show around 😊
🤣🤣🤣
Love your videos and look forward to follow your family around the world. Best regards from Sweden 🇸🇪
❤️
Really enjoying listening to and watching your journey! So cool to do this together as a family ❤️ p.s mum Hutchinson, I think your hair looks nice 👌 🙂
Oh thank you ❤

Welcome to Malaysia.. Hope you enjoy every moment..
I love that you are stepping g out of your comfort zone with foods such a good thing to show your children ❤
Good job guys👍🏼Welcome to 🇲🇾😂
Looks like you took my suggestion to visit the WAT. Good for you.
I am a Penangite and am so glad that you guys are enjoying your stay so far in Penang. I am also a football fan and so proud that Chris got a Penang FC jersey. I support Penang FC and Liverpool FC. What about you Chris? Do you support any other clubs beside AS Roma? 😉
Welcome to MALAYSIA 🇲🇾...😊😊😊hope you and your lovely family will enjoy stay in MALAYSIA 🇲🇾😘😘👄
Welcome to Malaysia❤ everyday is a holiday and lots of things to do in Malaysia both in the east or the west!
Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 ❤
Btw, pls don't drink using the water hose next to the toilet bidet 😅, that's not hygiene. It actual comes in handy for washing yourself after done with your toilet business, also handy for washing toilet, floors, and anything for convenience.😊
I am looking forward to watching your families life adventures ! 🥰🥰🥰
I really like to see the harmony of your family,, have a nice day e❤❤❤
Welcome to Malaysia , very interesting video and hope you enjoy your staycation here
In Malaysia, the hose initially was meant for Muslim tenants to wash their private parts (after taking a piss or dump) with water before their prayers. Wiping with toilet paper is not considered clean enough. Go to any toilet in any shopping complex, not many provided toilet paper but almost all have hoses. Of course hotels even have bidets for this purpose.
Thank u for this wonderful video.
That hose pipe is to clean your down areas after going to the loo 😂 and its also available in the uk.
To understand more about MALAYSIAN Way of life, please visit and stay one night with malay family or attend malay wedding ceremony in rural area such as KEDAH, PERLIS or PERAK. You will find the answer why your stay in Malaysia very comfortable
True
To understand Malaysian life you need friends from all ethnic groups and not just the 57% Malays.
Malaysia terbaik ❤️👍🇲🇾
haha that hose@bidet thing....very handy isn't it?😂
Am at your house tour section, and lol, ask your British Asian and British Muslim friends about the bum gun. (The water is chlorinated but just in general nobody drinks water straight out of the tap. Consequently that pipe isn't for drinking. It's to wash yourself. The toilet bowl cleaning is a bonus. 😂
🤣
Love it. I like that you've introduced your children to the world. They will be so much more confident and outgoing in their future lives. Out of interest, if you doing mind sharing how do you guys fund your lifestyle? Is it RUclips, savings, investments, etc. - it would be interesting to know.
Do you know the Saleh family? They are from Canada and recently moved to Malaysia too. I used to teach their daughter Aaminah.....(I'm a Montessori teacher) and she was enrolled in my little Montessori school.........but then the pandemic hit. :) It was a blessing in disguise for their family because that's when Sana ordered some hijabs and tye-dye from Walmart and before you knew it..........she started her hijab company. :) You can see her daughter in some of my videos too.
Yes.
Enjoy your time with your family here..
Good to hear the Brit perspective 👍🏻
Your hair looks really nice! Lots of things are meant to be, maybe u will like your hair darker and go back to your roots colour, less maintenance 👌😎
Thanks for coming Malaysia 🎉
Welcome to Malaysia☺☺☺☺☺...
I see Chris wearing the Penang FC jersey... 😊
You know it!
Don't forget to go Jalan Alor In Kuala Lumpur ...a long stretch of varies of restaurants ❤
Sounds great!
@@TheHutchinsons It really isn't. You'll be disappointed having eaten many places elsewhere.
You were joking about the hose right? Just checking 🤣🤣
The main purpose for the bidet (Hose pipe) is to wash yourself after you done your business but I guess u can also use to clean the toilet.
Tap water in Malaysia is not really safe for drink , we actually boil the tap water to drink.
Please, drink much plain water and keep hydrate esp the kids. Its very hot nowadays, since El Nino phenomenon still around the corner until August or perhaps until end this year. Even locals like us felt very hard to bear with it. 😂 Anyway, its good to watch your vlogs, and although wasnt much video yet, the video shooting and video editing quality is at very good level. Keep it up!
I doubt it will reach end of the year. Likely till september
To know Malaysia is to love Malaysia 🇲🇾❤️
Was staying in Windsor for seven years but decided to return back home Malaysia.that was in 1980
Malaysia is a muslim majority country. Pls learn about Islam too n do not be stuck with prejudices against muslims n islam while living in the peacefulness that has been derived from Islamic teachings n values. Pls visit mosques too. May Allah swt guide u.
🙏🏻
Uk is g7 country 1st world, we are developing. So cannot really compare.
The hose at toilet is for washing the bottom after "business" done.
Is all aboout suitability and convinence
The place give all the feeling you want
mean you love and stay comfort in that place
Wish you and your family all the best and stay happily and enjoy the culture
This channel deserve a subs. Love from a Malaysian 🇲🇾❤️
love your videos I just want to say the water spray in the toilet is to wash yourself down it’s not for drinking.
That hose is for washing after pooping
Thank you
welcome home 🤗
@2:56 WHAT!! hold on there!! NOOOOOOOO! never drink from the bidet😟 (think you are joking), its for you to clean your bottom after "business", Extremely not hygenic
😂🙈
The host pipe beside sits toilette because as majority malaysias were muslim, and to clean the dirt after pooing MUST use WATER, not tissue paper or paper. That is the reason why when you go to mall, the toilet. always in wet condition.
Welcome to Malaysia
Interesting adventure
Nice Jersey
That bidet is for you to wash your bud after finishing your business....
Welcome neighbor from butterworth
The hose in the toilet is to clean yourself after using the toilet, similar to a bidet 👍
A lot of digital nomad i know see malaysia as a base to explore south east asia. But mostly they are living in kuala lumpur with 25 euro luxury air bnd a night.
That thing you were holding is called a bum spray..to use to clean yourself after your business. Very common in asia.
As a Malaysia, my partner and I love London, the vibrant art and theatre scenes and fine dining too. Not to mention about shopping… 😜
it's different if you do actually live in london and work in london. Malaysian who has lived and worked in London for 10 years now and wishing to return. London has deteriorated so much in recent years and becoming more and more difficult to live. Crime is increasing and cost of living as well. Yes you get more options with theatre and shopping here but that;s about it really
The infrastructure we currently have has lowered barriers between people. We can observe that a large number of Asians currently reside in the UK, whereas a sizable number of Europeans also reside in Asia, particularly Southeast Asia. We hope you and your family will feel more at home in Malaysia as you grow acquainted to the country's climate, cuisine, and culture once you've adjusted to this place. However, once you start connecting with locals and expats who can share their experiences with you, things get less challenging because you can obtain anything you need here. Imagine the difficulties the British faced when they came in Malaya a century ago in order to serve their country. These days, we don't need to compare the amenities to those at home and in other countries because they are all already available, making it relatively simple for us to adjust wherever we go. I hope your extended stay in Malaysia is enjoyable.
Just imagine 300 years ago, it takes months to sail from uk to far east.
@@keangwooichoo6138 - Yes, there was no Suez Canal at that time, so they had to travel a long way around Africa to get to the Far East.
The hose you have there in your toilets are called Bidet. These are to clean 'yourself' after you've done your business. This is common in asia countries (particularly islamic countries), we are more conscious of hygiene..the toilet rolls are used to dry yourself..that's doubled the self-cleanse. Hope europeans can learn something from this side of the world. Welcome to Malaysia !
Have a nice staying in yr dream country. Please take care yr n family health.
