• Battambang ➡️ Kuala Lumpur + KL day 1

    Jul 10–11, 2024 in Malaysia ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C

    Hopped on a bus from Battambang to Siam Reap in the morning in which we broke down for an hour. Worried I was going to be late for my flight, I got on a tuk tuk straight to the airport. The airport was absolutely dead and I flew through baggage and security, and actually had loads of time before my flight Regretfully because I didn't get lunch in Siem Reap, I regretfully bought overpriced noodles in the airport to curb the hanger.
    It was only 2 1/2 hour flight to Kuala Lumpur, in which I slept all the way (again), but then another 45 mins from the airport into the city centre. I dumped my bags at the hostel just after 8 and found somewhere for food.
    The next day I very lazily explored my surrounding area. Visited a couple cafes and a few shopping malls, anywhere where there was aircon really. Kuala Lumpur has a very different feel to it than other Asian 'super cities' I've visited, can't quite put my finger on what but am excited to explore more.
