    came here from your previous video, i hope it is not too late to say welcome to malaysia! ❤ honestly, the way you praised msia a lot even in your prev video almost made me tear up, i guess it's nice to see the perspective of someone from another country, especially a muslim like you! hope you'll enjoy your stay here and if you get the chance to experience the other cities in msia, grab it! ✨️

    0:44 Hi, just a small correction, they are Malaysians of Indian descent or ethnicity. They are not just residing in Malaysia (as this word would be more accurate to describe perhaps expats from India rather than the generations of Malaysian Indians who were born & bred here). Malaysia is after all a multicultural, multiethnic & multi religion country ❤ Anyways, Welcome to Malaysia & hope you enjoy your time here 🎉

    as a UPM student, I'm genuinely liked your vlogs. Keep posting contents like this. I'm sure that with your limited time here in MY, you will gain so many new experiences with new people everyday. Some day might be hard but some may be so good. Enjoy every moment and don't forget to record as many vid as you can >< PS: You should try go to Bukit Ekspo in UPM especially in the evening to chill and relax, the view is lovely tho..

    I think for food, the local and common go tos are Mamak, Tomyam, Chinese Muslim restaurants and order whatever there you find good. For specific must haves are laksa, laksam, ckt, mi udang and sate. For household/kampung dishes it's any protein + masak lemak cili, masak asam, masak sambal/merah and curry. A lot but choose what you find and have fun!

    If you're free and hungry for adventures you can go to Perak, Pahang and visit lots of fun places [beaches etc], and if you're looking for a historical state you can visit Melaka, it's super nice there [Jonker walk, Selat mosque, taming sari, river cruise, kota e'famosa and more] and if you want to visit a peaceful village life with SUPER cheap foods, paddy fields and etc you can visit the northern part of Peninsula Malaysia, I recommend you to go to Kedah because that's where I'm at LOL, you can visit Terengganu for beautiful beaches, and you can also go to Sabah [hiking on the highest mountain in south east Asia, gunung kinabalu or mount kinabalu] and Sarawak too! There's plenty of beautiful places to go and I recommend you to visit all of it LOL

    I'm a 2nd year med student in Germany and saw that our university offers an exchange program at the Putra university. At first I thought of Malaysia as a not so great country but after watching this video I am longing to do an exchange semester there. The reason that the other exchange universities also didn't interest is because they were non-muslim countries.
    I would be happy if you could do a video in which you talk about:
    - Expenses (Cost of living, daily expenses etc.)
    - Social activities
    - A little more about the Campus
    - And so on
    Thanks in advance

    salam and hello bae! i live around the area that you do (i recognised some landmarks) and i just wanna say that a 25 minute walk to your uni is definitely not safe for you in the long term. malaysia's weather is superrrr unpredictable and when the heat strikes, it can get worse for you so just take a grab to uni okie! also, our infrastructures are not very pedestrian-friendly :O and the area where you live in, there are also a lot of foreigners so i'm a bit worried for your safety!
    thank you for enjoying out little country. it means a lot to us that you see malaysia in a positive light. it's not perfect, but there are some things worth enjoying.
    also! here are some recommended places for you to go:
    1. national art gallery (if you wanna know more about malaysian culture, i definitely recommend to go here! their art exhibition changes from time to time but rn they're having an art exhibition about nusantara culture)
    2. if you're done with the art gallery above you can just walk to this park called taman tasik titiwangsa (recently renovated, i havent been there yet myself)
    3. if you wanna shop for some local stuff - other than pasar seni can drop by Kompleks Kraf Jalan Conlay
    all stated places are within the KL area, given that you have limited time here in malaysia. have a good one!

      I appreciate it more when people took the time to blur every face, especially strangers. She's being considerate;if you don't appreciate her kindness just move along (not to mention her protecting her own self is apparently an affront to you, such a disgusting male entitlement). Just because we are out and about in public doesn't mean we want it broadcasted to the whole wide world. 10001 reasons to protect privacy, yet she shouldn't have to give any.

      She’s filipino so the vlog style is different, in ph you need to blur/not showing ppl face for their privacy and if you’re watching typical vlog in ph this kind of vlog is common to them like just showing your daily activities not the face.
