Comic here too. Yes, this was a fascinating walk through KL. My wife and I have been slow-traveling for a couple of years now, but until now we still had a home base in Texas. We just went full nomad and sold everything but what fits in a 10x10 storage unit. We're starting our full nomad journey along with our two cats in Querétaro Mexico for a couple of months. Thanks to you, Kuala Lumpur has moved up a few notches on our list. It looks amazing!
Hey Kenneth! Really appreciate the comment and love that you stuck around right to the end of the video. Really appreciate you taking that time out of your day to watch.

As we're sure you can imagine, we are juggling lots of different things at the same time at the moment so aren't able to comment as we would like but we wanted you to know that we saw your comment and we have actually sat and discussed all the comments on this particular video so your input has been seen and very highly appreciated! So thanks again, you are brilliant. Best wishes Neil & Sarah
Loved this video, we are visiting KL very soon. Great to see the real city. We have just found your channel a refreshing change from all the 20 somethings, your insights into south east Asia are brilliant for travellers our age.
Well done Neil, this "experiment/test" is a winner!. I totally agree that the world is a kind place and showing "real life" lets us see that we all have very similar lives. Loved the street art!! Wishing you and Sarah a healthy and adventurous 2023.
Amazing!! Love the walkabout vlog. KL has changed immensely. So many more new notable landmarks. I have always love KL and will be there soon. KL my birthplace. Miss you!!
Neil & Sarah....we just signed up for the Patreon based on this segment. We follow you eagerly and are hoping the best for the two of you. Best, Tim & Leslie SF, CA.
Whenever we’re somewhere new, a walk through neighbourhoods has always seemed the logical first step in experiencing the culture. It’s my favourite thing. Living it vicariously is the next best thing.
Absolutely loved this video! The format is REAL LIFE and that's what we want. Thanks for the effort you've put into creating this!!! We hope you feel better soon and take care of yourself. Sending you both love and appreciation. Sandy and Norm xx xx xx
Loved watching this walking tour around KL from beginning to end. I know I have found this video a bit later than it was filmed but thoroughly enjoyed it. I have been to KL a couple of times as a 'health check' tourist but being on my own and having limited time, haven't felt so adventurous. Can't wait to go back and explore some more. Thanks Neill and .... Comic!
From KLCC you can walk to Kampung Baru(local Malay hotspot) through the beautiful Saloma Bridge. Also if you like garden visiting Perdana Botanical Garden is a must, enjoy 🇲🇾
We loved the narration during the walk! I am not sure that we watched all of the sights of your walk but maybe that does not matter. You are very good at narrating as you go and that is awesome. I like this every once in a while but perhaps not a steady diet. Take care!
COMIC. Waited a long time to finally watch a vid like this from you. Good to see where you really are and the things going on around you and the local excitement instead of a coffee shop and always discussing financial issues. Great place KL and Malaysia, enjoy.

Hey you two!!! Over the moon that you enjoyed this. The background to it was that we often look at a place and just don't seem to get the feel from videos.

When it's too cold or rainy to walk outdoors I use our treadmill and put on "walking tour" videos, mute them, and listen to music as I walk. It gives me the feel of walking outside when I can't. This video puts me in the mind of those videos. I could see myself walking on the treadmill to it, but to just sit and watch it is a little boring TBH. (beautiful scenery though!) That being said, I look forward to your videos every week and will continue to tune in. It's just become part of my Saturday morning - watch 2GoRoam while I eat breakfast. This one was not my cup of tea, but I still appreciate all the hard work you put into making content for us! 🙂
Thank you for the honest feedback Mel. Absolutely this kind of video will polarise. Obviously these(if we make more) will be the exception rather than the rule.
I really enjoyed the video. We were there in November via a cruise, so only had 1 day to do some exploring. Nice to see the city from your vantage point. The humidity in that part of the world is crazy! hope your health improves soon.
Cómic! Enjoyed seeing the fine-grained texture of the city in the off-hours. Thanks for being clear about the format at the start. I also really appreciate your frank comments about the weather and what you would do differently another time. Wishing you well, and looking forward to the next one!

Late to the party as usual but enjoyed that Neil. Good effort. And hats off to people wearing those costumes in that heat and anyone standing down wind of them later on.
Really nice walk Neil, thank you. I personally enjoy the walk-and-talk kind of videos when most of the camera time is on the city and not just the narrator. I laughed at a few bits (Lol, U.S. Americans don’t use the word “bits” like the Brit’s, but I like it, it’s very short and useful). So, the bit about the MALL (25:35) was funny. Good to know other people pronounce it MAL (so for us, it’s a cross between Cal and Meow, lol), and the bit about inviting people not to subscribe, too funny. The COMIC-Con was very cool, I never realized how fun that would be to see. Maybe one day I’ll attend the one they put on in San Diego. Just for the record, I love the way the English talk and how they use and pronounce their words, with the exception of MALL, I like every “bit” of it. Sorry my comment was so long, but at least it wasn’t 45 min, lol, jk, little joke there.
I have been following you and Sarah since the beginning of your adventures. I was absolutely blown away with the commentating of your scenic walk around Kuala Lumpar. You have the talent to describe your surroundings in a way that tourism officials should be commissioning you to promote the country you are traveling in. Well done Neil and in Canada, we call a "Mall" a Mauull".
Good walkabout video! I like the street art and seeing some of the shadier parts of town. We've been retired now for half a year and traveling in Mexico. We're on to Ecuador after this. Good to see your videos. I appreciate your sense of humor. Let Sarah know she was missed. :)

Great video! I was going to stay at Traders next week with my wife but instead opted for Wolo...and you walked past both!!! A great walk and love what you and Sarah have given up to travel. Liked and subscribed 😀
Comic - really enjoyed the walk, scenery and information. I did watch it speeded up a little, but that's just me. Thanks again - we really enjoy your videos and they give us so much to think about as we head towards our retirement.. :)

Comic! So amazing to see your walking tour - I only ever drove through KL so it was fab to see how vibrant it is and makes me want to visit!! Can't wait to see your next location! Take care you two xxx
Comic. I enjoyed this format and watched quite happily while sewing. When we arrive at a new destination the first thing we do is get on a hop on hop off bus to familiarise our selves with the city. So this kind of feels a little like that, just from the comfort of home. Well done and appreciate your effort in the extreme humidity.
Thanks for the walkthrough the heart of KL tour. That’s where first come into the world half a century ago at the Chinese Maternal hospital opposite of where you stayed.
Thanks for the walk around! It's great to see the details of the neighborhood and how far it would take to get from the Robertson to the Petronis tower. Thank you!!
It was very different this week but we enjoyed it as we would a nice COMIC book. We have yet to visit South East Asia but it is on our radar for fall 2024 so it’s really nice to see it through your lens and get a general feel for the area. As you asked for feedback, I will say that it may have been a tad bit long since the motion on the screen created by walking and looking around can generate a bit of cyber sickness at times. The idea of this type of video can be useful to those who wish to visit the cities you feature so I would continue doing them occasionally, but perhaps you may wish to consider making them a tad bit shorter. 😊
Impressive that you can walk and talk in the heat and humidity. More challenging to also be a comic in those conditions. I couldn’t do it. I’m one of those that enjoys watching videos of routes between two points. Not only shows the glitz and glam, but the grit as well. I’m a fan.
COMIC! Ok.... so much to say, but first a HUGE thank you for taking the time and making the effort. THIS is what I was talking about in yesterday's (Sunday's) wonderful Live Stream. While I very much LOVE to see what Neil and Sarah are personally up to wherever you are in the world, I do love a walk-thru of the area with or without audio comment. The "where" could be typed in at the appropriate spots. I'm sittin' pretty here in my lovely little village of fewer than 500 residents on the Northern Neck of Virginia and I get to see in real-time what others are doing quite a number of time zones away. To me, it's fascinating. I watched to the end because of the perspective it allowed me to have/to change/to re-think. That's what you guys do, without even trying. Again, thank you so much. I'll take you and Sarah any which way. You're like dear friends we've never met but would love to. You're down to earth and I get to live vicariously, which right now.... is a.o.k. (BTW, yesterday Zoom was mentioned, but we've also had great success with Google Meet, which one CAN do on an Apple. Yet another option.) See you guys!
I liked this walking video. I've been to KL but didn't walk your route (mostly drove to be honest as it's so hot!). So I think it's worth doing more of these to give a feel of any new cities you visit. Hope you start feeling better soon.. Oh and Comic!
I like this kind of video. It shows the good, the bad, and the ugly. It shows not every part of a city is manicured and Instagram perfect. Showing views a person would actually live in is valuable to get a sense of reality.

Really enjoy your channel and this walking tour. My wife and I go for daily walks of about this length so it was actually quite interesting to simulate a daily routine in a new place. You’re quite the comic, Neil.
Love the walkabout style. As an American sometimes we think if things aren't all bright and shiny we don't visit. I love local neighborhoods and the feel of this video to give you a real sense of the area. Always looking to know when video was filmed to know the weather for a particular month. If you do this style would appreciate mentioning what month the video was filmed. Sorry to hear you're still feeling unwell. Hope they figure things out for you soon. Missing Sarah as well hope she's back in the videos soon. Safe travels!
Having visited KL and walked around quite a bit in other modern Asian cities also, it gives a very realistic idea of the city area. Not just the usual tourist spots. Singapore comes to mind as a good city to do one of these too. They do go all out for the comic festival.
One goes roam was brilliant too 🎉we have been lucky enough to stay at the Traders hotel with the great bar and pool on the top floors the towers and park and KL generally were great too it was lovely to watch the walkthrough in the city you do get a real feel of the different districts. loved the COMIC Con footage and looking forward to seeing your year unfold. Hope all t.he health issues are sorted soon and we wish you both a very happy safe and healthy 2023 Happy Trails

Really enjoyed the walk about video and seeing so many of the streets we used to pound. Rob said he now feels home sick and is desperately needing to visit as his tshirts are starting to look a little tired. Loved the "comic" value added with the "mall". Not surprisingly they have changed the 3d art at the pavilion... wish you could have seen the cat stepping out of the building when we were there. Will have to see if I have it on my hard drive that are with us.
Hey Reve & Rob! Pleased you enjoyed it a very different style for us and it gave Sarah a much needed break while I headed out :-) Funny thing, they had the cat thing at the Pavilion and that was specifically what I looked to capture... as I was shooting, the camera overheated so I missed it by only a few seconds. Damn. Best regards, Neil & Sarah
It has actually been unusually cool in the Klang Valley (includes Kuala Lumpur) since at least early 2018. Whereas we used to have very hot and dry spells that would last 4 to 5 months in a year, there have been hardly any these past 5 years with the longest hot(tish) spell lasting at most 3 weeks. Prior to this cool weather, denizens would also have to contend with the very dreaded HAZE that would see the entire atmosphere regularly enveloped with smog - there have been no such occurrences these past 5 years. In my entire 50 years in Klang Valley, never have I experienced this relatively cool weather. It looks as if the cool trend is set to continue in 2023, hopefully :)
Loved the comic -con content at the end I am a nerd and have visited comicon san diego quite a few times, I never thought about planning some travels around tradeshow events that were interesting but I now I am :)_ Cheers!. - D. Sharp
The back streets show the real city and not just the glossy facade so I prefer it. Thanks for the walk through. My only negative is so few people are shown, so more would be better.
Love your videos, spent a month in KL, amazing place and great country. Just a comment, would love to see more interaction with the locals and the different shops and eating places. Just watching you walking the back streets becomes a bit boring after a while. Anyway enjoy your journey and I think selling everything and traveling SE Asia is the best thing you guys could have done. Love from Cape Town.
We often watch walking videos on TH-cam before and after our travels to a holiday destination, most of them with just the street noise and odd street name or point of interest popping up on screen. Loved your walking video but in particular loved your rolling commentary, open honest and with the odd recommendation along the way. Would love to see more like this on your travels.
you wittering on was what made this video....loved it but not my thing....i only hit kuala lumur for going in the highest building at the time..the towers .but i loved loved malaysia....i went up the east coast from singapore...catching local buses instead of the motor way buses...ie 3 local buses to reach the same destination. loved the local people and the colourful clothes and modesty (shyness). loved the food and the chicken and purple rice in the night market in i can never remember but it was up north (maybe called Terengganu...yummy....
Yes that sounds a wonderful trip. We have had fun in Kuala Lumpur but also fun outside of the city too, hopefully you will see that in the next few videos.
Comic here too. Yes, this was a fascinating walk through KL. My wife and I have been slow-traveling for a couple of years now, but until now we still had a home base in Texas.

I like your mall idea. Not only ball, but call, fall, hall, tall, and wall. Thanks for showing us a streets eye view of Kuala Lumpur.
Love it mate - best time to have a good look around a city. Very interesting and definitely not boring. Love the chat too.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great. Looking forward to your next walking tour.
Loved that walk of KL and your company. All the best to you and your lady!
You can go to pangkor or langkawi as they are duty free islands. That will reduce your cost of travel.

When it's too cold or rainy to walk outdoors I use our treadmill and put on "walking tour" videos, mute them, and listen to music as I walk. It gives me the feel of walking outside when I can't. This video puts me in the mind of those videos. I could see myself walking on the treadmill to it, but to just sit and watch it is a little boring TBH. (beautiful scenery though!) That being said, I look forward to your videos every week and will continue to tune in. It's just become part of my Saturday morning - watch 2GoRoam while I eat breakfast. This one was not my cup of tea, but I still appreciate all the hard work you put into making content for us! 🙂
Thank you for the honest feedback Mel. Absolutely this kind of video will polarise. Obviously these(if we make more) will be the exception rather than the rule.
I really enjoyed the video. We were there in November via a cruise, so only had 1 day to do some exploring. Nice to see the city from your vantage point. The humidity in that part of the world is crazy! hope your health improves soon.
Comic. i enjoy the walking tour style of chat and video!
Awesome, thank you!
Actually I am sitting down watching it with a cup of tea and a mince pie! Rally interesting video thank you.
Brilliant video! I absolutely enjoyed it.
Cómic! Enjoyed seeing the fine-grained texture of the city in the off-hours. Thanks for being clear about the format at the start. I also really appreciate your frank comments about the weather and what you would do differently another time. Wishing you well, and looking forward to the next one!

6:08 RexKL formerly was a cinema, I watched the movie Endless Love staring Brooke Shields in this cinema sometime in 1979 or 1980.
Late to the party as usual but enjoyed that Neil. Good effort.
And hats off to people wearing those costumes in that heat and anyone standing down wind of them later on.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video n for showing your explorations in KL.
Thank you so much.
@@2GoRoam Thank u too. 😁
Very much enjoyed the walk through KL!
Comic! Loved the street view walk about. I don't know that I'll ever be able to slow travel, so joining in on this was great.
Really nice walk Neil, thank you. I personally enjoy the walk-and-talk kind of videos when most of the camera time is on the city and not just the narrator. I laughed at a few bits (Lol, U.S. Americans don’t use the word “bits” like the Brit’s, but I like it, it’s very short and useful). So, the bit about the MALL (25:35) was funny. Good to know other people pronounce it MAL (so for us, it’s a cross between Cal and Meow, lol), and the bit about inviting people not to subscribe, too funny. The COMIC-Con was very cool, I never realized how fun that would be to see. Maybe one day I’ll attend the one they put on in San Diego. Just for the record, I love the way the English talk and how they use and pronounce their words, with the exception of MALL, I like every “bit” of it. Sorry my comment was so long, but at least it wasn’t 45 min, lol, jk, little joke there.
Haha well that comment just made us laugh too.... symbiosis 😃😃😃
Loved this Neil, we are in Hoi an and just deciding where to go next and loved the tour. Hope you are feeling better🏋️
Comic-con was pretty cool, I’ve never been to one. A bit on the long side, but loved the walking tour and all the murals!
I have been following you and Sarah since the beginning of your adventures. I was absolutely blown away with the commentating of your scenic walk around Kuala Lumpar. You have the talent to describe your surroundings in a way that tourism officials should be commissioning you to promote the country you are traveling in. Well done Neil and in Canada, we call a "Mall" a Mauull".
Good walkabout video! I like the street art and seeing some of the shadier parts of town. We've been retired now for half a year and traveling in Mexico. We're on to Ecuador after this. Good to see your videos. I appreciate your sense of humor. Let Sarah know she was missed. :)
COMIC! XD Love these videos Neil, please keep 'em coming and take care of yourself. :)

Thank you, I love the format. Your channel is "Go Roam" after all. Be well!
Great video! I was going to stay at Traders next week with my wife but instead opted for Wolo...and you walked past both!!! A great walk and love what you and Sarah have given up to travel. Liked and subscribed 😀
Wolo is a very cool building that you can see from everywhere! Hope you have a fabulous time!
Best regards,
Neil & Sarah
Comic - really enjoyed the walk, scenery and information. I did watch it speeded up a little, but that's just me. Thanks again - we really enjoy your videos and they give us so much to think about as we head towards our retirement.. :)

Comic! So amazing to see your walking tour - I only ever drove through KL so it was fab to see how vibrant it is and makes me want to visit!! Can't wait to see your next location! Take care you two xxx
Comic. I enjoyed this format and watched quite happily while sewing. When we arrive at a new destination the first thing we do is get on a hop on hop off bus to familiarise our selves with the city. So this kind of feels a little like that, just from the comfort of home. Well done and appreciate your effort in the extreme humidity.
Thanks for the walkthrough the heart of KL tour. That’s where first come into the world half a century ago at the Chinese Maternal hospital opposite of where you stayed.
Thanks for the walk around! It's great to see the details of the neighborhood and how far it would take to get from the Robertson to the Petronis tower. Thank you!!
Another Saturday morning coffee with 2GoRoam. ☕️🥯
Hope you enjoy it .... Very different this week.
It was very different this week but we enjoyed it as we would a nice COMIC book. We have yet to visit South East Asia but it is on our radar for fall 2024 so it’s really nice to see it through your lens and get a general feel for the area. As you asked for feedback, I will say that it may have been a tad bit long since the motion on the screen created by walking and looking around can generate a bit of cyber sickness at times. The idea of this type of video can be useful to those who wish to visit the cities you feature so I would continue doing them occasionally, but perhaps you may wish to consider making them a tad bit shorter. 😊
That's great feedback thank you. We would only make this kind of video rarely but also understand regarding video length.
Impressive that you can walk and talk in the heat and humidity. More challenging to also be a comic in those conditions. I couldn’t do it. I’m one of those that enjoys watching videos of routes between two points. Not only shows the glitz and glam, but the grit as well. I’m a fan.
I definitely enjoyed the walking tour. Always look forward to a new video. Best wishes and thanks for doing this.
COMIC! Ok.... so much to say, but first a HUGE thank you for taking the time and making the effort. THIS is what I was talking about in yesterday's (Sunday's) wonderful Live Stream. While I very much LOVE to see what Neil and Sarah are personally up to wherever you are in the world, I do love a walk-thru of the area with or without audio comment. The "where" could be typed in at the appropriate spots. I'm sittin' pretty here in my lovely little village of fewer than 500 residents on the Northern Neck of Virginia and I get to see in real-time what others are doing quite a number of time zones away. To me, it's fascinating. I watched to the end because of the perspective it allowed me to have/to change/to re-think. That's what you guys do, without even trying. Again, thank you so much. I'll take you and Sarah any which way. You're like dear friends we've never met but would love to. You're down to earth and I get to live vicariously, which right now.... is a.o.k. (BTW, yesterday Zoom was mentioned, but we've also had great success with Google Meet, which one CAN do on an Apple. Yet another option.) See you guys!
Love it, always a different vibe in the morning. Most vids never show the spaces between the highlights, brilliant. Keep these coming.
I liked this walking video. I've been to KL but didn't walk your route (mostly drove to be honest as it's so hot!). So I think it's worth doing more of these to give a feel of any new cities you visit. Hope you start feeling better soon.. Oh and Comic!
I like this kind of video. It shows the good, the bad, and the ugly. It shows not every part of a city is manicured and Instagram perfect. Showing views a person would actually live in is valuable to get a sense of reality.
Comic. Thanks for a relaxing walk around an interesting city in my recliner.

I think this is a great addition to the already great content and insight, and would happily sit and soak up all that your travels have to share. Those towers look immense. Oh, and by the way, COMIC.

Excited to be watching!
Ah Susan, that's lovely. Hope you enjoy it.
Really enjoy your channel and this walking tour. My wife and I go for daily walks of about this length so it was actually quite interesting to simulate a daily routine in a new place. You’re quite the comic, Neil.
Love the walkabout style. As an American sometimes we think if things aren't all bright and shiny we don't visit. I love local neighborhoods and the feel of this video to give you a real sense of the area. Always looking to know when video was filmed to know the weather for a particular month. If you do this style would appreciate mentioning what month the video was filmed.
Sorry to hear you're still feeling unwell. Hope they figure things out for you soon. Missing Sarah as well hope she's back in the videos soon.
Safe travels!
Really enjoyed the video. Maybe keep it to 30 minutes or so but this is a definite like.
Having visited KL and walked around quite a bit in other modern Asian cities also, it gives a very realistic idea of the city area. Not just the usual tourist spots. Singapore comes to mind as a good city to do one of these too. They do go all out for the comic festival.
Totally agree!
Great Walking Tour!!! Subscribing!
A great video, very interesting. Gail, Czech Republic ❤️
Comic it is interesting to see what the place feels like. Thank you for making such an effort. Watch out for those cars, and cats Neil.🐈
Comic - great tour really enjoyed it!
One goes roam was brilliant too 🎉we have been lucky enough to stay at the Traders hotel with the great bar and pool on the top floors the towers and park and KL generally were great too it was lovely to watch the walkthrough in the city you do get a real feel of the different districts. loved the COMIC Con footage and looking forward to seeing your year unfold. Hope all t.he health issues are sorted soon and we wish you both a very happy safe and healthy 2023 Happy Trails

I watch videos like this, that can go on for an hour, walking around places, these are popular and with your style i.e commentary i am sure it will catch on, well done
Loved the artwork on the buildings! Just a tad long the walkabout but, not a bad way to share what you're experiencing first-hand.
At this hourof the morning it's best to go to the morning market in Pudu and Jalan Chow Kit or TTDI....in Pudu go to the morning food court
I liked your walkabout video. Gives a neat impression of a city COMIC :)

Really enjoyed the walk about video and seeing so many of the streets we used to pound. Rob said he now feels home sick and is desperately needing to visit as his tshirts are starting to look a little tired.
Loved the "comic" value added with the "mall".
Not surprisingly they have changed the 3d art at the pavilion... wish you could have seen the cat stepping out of the building when we were there. Will have to see if I have it on my hard drive that are with us.
Hey Reve & Rob!
Pleased you enjoyed it a very different style for us and it gave Sarah a much needed break while I headed out :-)
Funny thing, they had the cat thing at the Pavilion and that was specifically what I looked to capture... as I was shooting, the camera overheated so I missed it by only a few seconds. Damn.
Best regards,
Neil & Sarah
Love the format - thanks! Comic!
Great to have a stroll with you though all those interesting streets. Keep it up Neil, I'll be watching!
Enjoyed video. Agree with you on humidity and don’t enjoy high eat or humidity so would also adjust travel to hit areas in their lower humidity times.
Absolutely.... you have to be strategic about life in that humidity 😃
It has actually been unusually cool in the Klang Valley (includes Kuala Lumpur) since at least early 2018. Whereas we used to have very hot and dry spells that would last 4 to 5 months in a year, there have been hardly any these past 5 years with the longest hot(tish) spell lasting at most 3 weeks. Prior to this cool weather, denizens would also have to contend with the very dreaded HAZE that would see the entire atmosphere regularly enveloped with smog - there have been no such occurrences these past 5 years. In my entire 50 years in Klang Valley, never have I experienced this relatively cool weather. It looks as if the cool trend is set to continue in 2023, hopefully :)
Loved the comic -con content at the end I am a nerd and have visited comicon san diego quite a few times, I never thought about planning some travels around tradeshow events that were interesting but I now I am :)_ Cheers!. - D. Sharp
The back streets show the real city and not just the glossy facade so I prefer it. Thanks for the walk through. My only negative is so few people are shown, so more would be better.
Comic! Loving whatever you post!
Yes I was in KL when the comic costumes were in full force , incredible effort from the youngsters.
Enjoyed the walk around. Good luck with your health issue and I enjoy your 'COMIC' stories.
Great. Thanks for watching.
Loved the walk and chat!
Love your videos, spent a month in KL, amazing place and great country. Just a comment, would love to see more interaction with the locals and the different shops and eating places. Just watching you walking the back streets becomes a bit boring after a while. Anyway enjoy your journey and I think selling everything and traveling SE Asia is the best thing you guys could have done. Love from Cape Town.
Absolutely love the walk around when its not too busy. Hope you can do more.
I really enjoyed the video & the subjects covered, thank you!👌🏼👏
We often watch walking videos on TH-cam before and after our travels to a holiday destination, most of them with just the street noise and odd street name or point of interest popping up on screen. Loved your walking video but in particular loved your rolling commentary, open honest and with the odd recommendation along the way. Would love to see more like this on your travels.
Fantastic vid , thanks so much . 👍
you wittering on was what made this video....loved it but not my thing....i only hit kuala lumur for going in the highest building at the time..the towers .but i loved loved malaysia....i went up the east coast from singapore...catching local buses instead of the motor way buses...ie 3 local buses to reach the same destination. loved the local people and the colourful clothes and modesty (shyness). loved the food and the chicken and purple rice in the night market in i can never remember but it was up north (maybe called
Terengganu...yummy....
Yes that sounds a wonderful trip. We have had fun in Kuala Lumpur but also fun outside of the city too, hopefully you will see that in the next few videos.
