Welcome to Penang! In this video, we catch a train and a ferry to take us from Kuala Lumpur to Penang, before setting off on our first full day of exploring. We couldn’t possibly fit all the amazing things to see in Penang in one day, or one video, so in this first part, we’re exploring Penang’s colonial history and getting a feel for a region of Malaysia that is so different to Kuala Lumpur!
We also visited two iconic Penang locations that you might recognise from the Crazy Rich Asians movie!

Who are we?
Hi! We’re Aoife and Meadhbh, and we’re sisters from Ireland. After deciding to take a career break, we moved to Spain where we travelled from Barcelona to Marbella, before finally getting on a one-way flight to Bangkok. We’re currently hoping to continue travelling full time throughout 2022, starting in South East Asia!
