Hey guys how are you doing. as you walk around Malaysia, what runs through the mind of any passersby? is it safe? or can i easily find my way as i walk through Malaysia especially as a tourist. these are some of the things that we ask ourselves as we left to discover Malaysia for ourselves. i remember my experience when i was first decided to rome Malaysia. i took a taxi to KL, where i payed a lot of money because i had no idea that there were trains to go to Kl central and were a bit cheaper than the taxi. after the taxi ride, i decided to take a walk in KL to look for malls where i can buy clothes and i ended up in Petaling street or china town as they call it here. i was shocked and thought that i was lost and felt like crying but luckily i found someone who could understand me and i asked for directions. the other problem in Malaysia is the language barrier problem, where not many people can communicate in English and hence finding it difficult to interact with the locals.
i foud my way to the monorail station, where i got into the right monorail but ended up at titiwangsa rather than KL central. i asked at the ticket payment point and they told me to board the train again and these time to go back till the end of the rail. i did that and i find myself at KL central. i was thankful and i found my way to the KTM station, atleast there i knew the station i was supposed to go to and i was rather pleased with myself. th eother time i was walking just minding my business and these guy riding a bike stole my bag with all my notes and it is near my midterms and i don't know what i will do now since i don't have my notes. anyway i am hoping for the best. my walk in malaysia has not been thated safe but interesting but i must say that i have learn a lot from being independent and now i can walk in the streets of malaysia without being worried that i will get lost now i am a survivor.
