I went to Malaysia (KL and Penang) on my honeymoon. Wonderful country. 👍👍
So nice 😊
Like Monica, I’ve traveled extensively around the world, lived in USA, Qatar, Canada, Australia. Malaysia is a gem! Yes fireworks on 30/Aug (midnight) at KLCC.
Wow, Monica seems to have manifested an amazing life for herself, with living in so many countries and visiting so many more. It's wonderful that she agreed to sit with you for an interview and show her beautiful condo.
Yes, she’s lovely. ☺️
@Mark-in-Texas Manifesting ✨ thank you for your kind words 🌿
@@MGR_monica , you're welcome
Great to hear from Monica not only from a biz perspective but also as a solo female traveller. She’s certainly been around! Thank you both 🙏🏻
Thank you 🌿
Hello everyone. Thank you for the kind words. My messages seams to disappear (maybe because I was putting a link), for property inquiry click on video description and get in touch from any of my two websites added there. Thank you 🌿
Monica is a very pleasant and friendly person, love her smile 😀
Excellent financial prediction for Malaysia.
Monica's professionalism and referral gives additional credence to my concepts about Malaysia.
What an intriguing person Monica is, so diverse, sophisticated, and personable.
Appreciate the lovely apartment tour.
That building has to be one of the best in KL.
Also, as a woman who frequently gets around without Hubby as an attachment, it was encouraging to hear of her comfort level while being out and about in KL.
Good going, Taylor.
Thank you.
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you 🌿
What a lovely interview with your new friend Monica. I hope that she'll find KL, Malaysia, an ideal and good place to stay, like you did.
I hope so too!
Wow. Monica is an amazing lady and what a wonderful sharing of her life journey. Good that you found a nice new friend. Stay happy🌺🇲🇾
What an incredible woman! She's so accomplished and interesting. Really enjoyed this interview and apartment tour. Thank you, Taylor 🎉
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you 🌿
Great talk, Andrew. Cheers from Cupertino!
I lived in Dubai for 1.5 years, and my family and I were supposed to migrate to KL during the COVID, but we didn't do well because of the COVID-19 migration restrictions :D. Now we live in Silicon Valley, and it's all broken... Enjoying every single video of yours.
How did you like Dubai? Do you prefer Dubai or Malaysia or some other location for long term? I will go to KL next month then I have to go back to Europe for a month. After Europe, I plan to come back to Malasia.
@user-cn5ri5he4c Dubai is somewhat better due to the stronger expats community there, and it's certainly easier to reach Europe from this location. Malaysia is bound to everything else, and the Pacific Ocean is quite huge to cross if you want to go elsewhere, i.e.. in the U.S.
Thanks Taylor for sharing this insightful presentation with us. I will compliment you about your choice of background music 🎶 in the second part of the video. .Simply perfect! Continue to keep us posted!
Oh thank you!
Love the minimalist deco of the apt.
Great video my friend. 💕👏🏼 Cheers from 2 Canadians 🇨🇦 living in Mexico. 🇲🇽🥰✌🏼
Thank you so much 😁
Thanks, Taylor and Monica. I loved learning about Monica's amazing life. I am champing at the bit, waiting for MM2H so I can experience Malaysia and the hopeful economic boom. And... Here's hoping for Merdeka fireworks! I've read that the parade will be in Putrajaya this year, but I am hoping to see videos of KL fireworks from my various friends' windows.
In the meantime, I am waiting impatiently here in Arizona.
Thanks Taylor for this splendid sharing..n welcome to Mlysia Monica...hahaha..
Thank you ❤
Monica was an interesting guest. Thank you Taylor!😊
Very enjoyable video. I love this apartments. Very tastefully furnished. Yes indeed, Monica is a very interesting lady.
Thank you so much!
The Columbia Restaurant in St. Armands Circle is a forever favorite of mine. I used to live on the Gulf Coast of FL. Now I'm looking to your area for retirement. Best wishes!
I would love to connect with Monica, as I have plenty of premium land to develop in Perak. Her knowledge of geopolitics, economics, and property is exactly what I am eager to collaborate on.
Great video. Good to meet Monica
I miss Cuba. It is the most beautiful and safest country I have ever visited. 😍👍
Very good morning to you Taylor
You have the ability to choose which way you want to go.You have to believe great things are going to happen in your life.Do everything you can to make it happen.Cheers 😊
Nice! Taylor you should asked Monica how much she want for her place?
Nice to meet you Monica...🎉🎉🎉
Thank you ❤
Another friendly and very interesting video and what a lovely accomplished lady. I first found your videos just before lockdown after I'd visited KL and spent a couple of weeks in Penang where I met a single English lady whilst staying at the E&O who was grounded there due to illness. She had just started the application for a resident's visa but that all collapsed and rules changed as you know. Prior to my visit to Malaysia I had no idea that so many expats lived there from the US and Europe. I've stayed in touch with the English lady who is currently pursuing a residents visa in Sarawak. I wish that we'd 'found' Malaysia earlier in our travels but we became addicted to travelling in India and Africa. I have a huge amount of admiration for people who travel alone and relocate to other parts of the world. Making friends if you relocate within your own country is challenging. I really love your videos and the insight that you give into your life in the Far East.
Thank you so much. 🤗
great conversation!! love your chemistry❤❤❤ Monica, love your insights and your beautiful home! can't wait to visit KL again❤
Thank you ❤
Malaysia is a great place and I always be great full to Malaysia for hosting me and my family.......but Italy is on another level........
Dolomites
@@keangwooichoo6138 Dolomiti are a is and unique place! I love them! But also the rest of Italic Peninsula!
@micheleandreacomaschi6250 yes yes Vatican, venice, Rome, pompei
Monica seems like a delightful and interesting woman. Enjoy your friendship with her.
She’s lovely ☺️
Thank you for the kind words 🌿
Que rico! A Cuban neighbour, how great! Lovely conversation with Monica, she’s so nice! Brings back memories of my visits to Cuba, a magical place. And you’re so lucky to have her as a neighbour, Andrew! The only place that I know that comes close to Cuban food is Joloko, it’s Carribean cuisine, with fabulous cocktails and great salsa music. We should all meet there🎉😂❤
Muchas gracias 🌿
She is spot on with TRX very impressive. But same shops as the others. Residential rents are going up I am doing my visa run and been told my rent will go up from 4750rm to 7000rm a month when I get back. Just so wrong especialyy with 4000 vacancies in KLCC.
Good on you Taylor you just meet here and she sells up straight away.
😃
PDA warning 13:45 .... really nice interview adn apt tour !!!
😂😂😂
Stunning apartment! Can’t wait to see yours Taylor!
Soon! 🤗
Monica, please be here fulltime
Its simple and cozy. Good job Monica
Thank you 🌿
Hi Andrew. Wow! What a fabulous place! But what a huge price too.
Hope you are well and now fully settled into your own place which is
also very nice. We will be over there in 2025 and cannot wait. Hope we will
be able to meet up. Look forward to the next vlog xxx
Wow! She's amazing! Great for her!
Always enjoy your videos. Maybe you can keep the floor plan image on for a few more seconds, but no problem because I will be there for 5 days end of October, then 3 more days at Sepang for MotoGP. I actually hope to look at some condos while I am in K.L. What are some good things about Ampang? And if you have a good contact for rental agent, please let me know. Be well Andrew.
Ampang’s location can’t be beat!
You were correct, fascinating person and interview.
The ringgit is rising for sure
Another great video Taylor 👍
Multi talented
I loved living in Malaysia for a couple of months, before I quit my job and came back to Korea. I loved the culture, people, food, weather, and the malls. It's a superb, lovely, awesome country but with some regulatory quirks that drove me insane.
Thanks for sharing!
How Fabulous....everyone should have a Monica as a neighbour
Thank you for your kind words🌿
Good morning Taylor and Monica. Thank you for sharing this beautiful and informative vlog. Watching from Marudi City in Sarawak
Wow very well travelled lady
Another great interview. Good luck to Monica. Best wishes to you and to Earl Grey.
Thank you kindly!
Thank you for your wishes 🌿
Thanks a lot for helping us to discover Monica. Nice apartment indeed...
Very amazing, very demure ❤️
Amazing conversation and apartment. Thanks Taylor and Monica ❤
What a beautiful apartment!
Nice that every room has a window. Difficult to find in high-rise apartments. Two issues - first being the kitchen sink on the left as soon as you enter the living space. Second being the view of the stool in the guest bath as soon as you open the front door providing the bathroom door is left open. Overall a lovely apartment with natural light coming from all directions.
Fabulous apartment!
Thanks for the great video Andrew 👍👍
Condominiums are over supply in KL. I've studied in UM in 2000s and recently I visited the area (South Bangsar), hardly recognised it with numbers of new Condominiums.
1 feature of Condominium that I love, the rooftop pools ❤
Wow Taylor.. Monica she the one you looking for.. you found it.. ❤️.. She Lovely. 😊..
You are such a gentleman Taylor
Thank you ☺️
Wow what an interesting woman
Wow, interesting guest .. Was curious about life in Cuba; " left Cuba, visited 50+ Countries and never visited the US" (?)
Monica is fabulous.
Excellent Andy! .Big thanks to Monica for sharing her history and insights. Could love to hear a bit more about about her expectation that the overbuilt property situation in Malaysia may soon dry up.
Noted!
@@andrewtaylor4558 Thanks Andy.
Btw, an old pro guideline for video interviews is to remind interviewees to look at the host (Interviewer) and rarely look at the camera unless they are breaking away from the interview speak to the audience directly and apart from the interviewer
Hello Taylor.
I'm first! Hello Taylor :)
She’s a Great Guess …Great Discussion 👍👍Loooove The Tour!
Another great vedio
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks Taylor lovely video
Taylor- have you made any close friends with locals apart from your cat and your partner, i mean.
The locals are ever so friendly.
Of course. 🤗
The rent only goes up when central bank increase the interest rate.
Hey Andrew: I think an opportunity just fell in your lap! Unless she's asking a crazy price, your chance to dispense with landlords...
Dont think Monica will let her pad go for a song.
i super LIKe her dining table !!! tq for sharing
Hi Lumpie08, is from Ikea :)
Our second quarter gdp = 5.9%.
I feel I have competition now. I’m going to hurry and get over to Malaysia soon!! As soon as I’m there we can finally get married! ❤🤗😋
😂
@@andrewtaylor4558 I’ll be in white. What will you be wearing? 😋
Scarlet?
@@teatree6228 🤣😱😱
ampang will get new station on mrt circle line, I believe at Ampang lake. so that's a new bonus. but will be ready in 2028.
I agree with her. The economy is going strong on paper. Property & rent prices will go up and up. Meanwhile I highly doubt wages will go up by that much, certainly it wont match the housing price increase. That worries me. Rent is already ridiculously high for Malaysians right now. If it goes up even more, that will be terrible. There is recently a lot of public housing construction going on. Hopefully that will cushion the impact to some extent.
🤔
Hi Taylor, love to watch the interview session and tour of the apartment
Thanks ☺️
To expats here and what's not , the most shorter distance from KL, most beautiful beaches and most affordable most kept secret are Pulau Besar Mersing Johor😊😊😊
Hi Taylor! Very nice and informative interview. I am just concerned now that prices in KL will rise too high in the future which might put my future retirement plans there in limbo.😟 I am sure you are concerned too about the exchange rate. Hopefully it won't be too bad. Fingers crossed! 🤞
That's a lovely condo, tastefully decorated. I'm assuming Monica furnished everything herself. Am I correct? Also, may I ask why she wants something smaller? I think 1100 square feet is a nice size for one person and you can have a guest over.
🤔
Merdeka is Independence Day from the British. It is like 4th of July in the U.S.
Lots of free activities in town.
And what a nice coincidence that your neighbor had also watched your videos !
Yes!
Unless u buy somewhere in rural areas..price of property will always go up. Even outskirts of kl
Monica has the travellers mindset, she doesn't stuffs her home which makes it easier to move around.
What a nice looking apartment Monica has. Show us yours too, Taylor. By the way, did you get to compare your electric bill with Monica's? I was wondering if her monthly bill is about the same as yours.
Yes, hers is less. Mine was a bit less this month too. 🤗
Thank you 🌿
The have a few Cuban Restoran in KL. one of the review - ✨Had my dinner at Cubar 🇨🇺 bangsar . The food was absolutely delicious especially after a long day.
Oh wow!
Taylor why dont u buy d apartment from Monica....it looks so clean and beautiful....since u will be in Malaysia permanently its a lost if u didnt grab her apartment for a long stay in Malaysia so u dont have to think of shifting everywhere else...juz an opinion...
Great video 👍👍👍 will visit Malaysia in February…hope to meet up with you for some more info regarding moving to Malaysia from Canada
Hi. Moving from “where” in Canada? No need to ask why ❄️❄️ … but the biggest reason(s) why? Thank you!
Hello Mr.Andrew...have a fun Merdeka Day soon.
Must have a factory for cigars in cuba
Not a factory 😊 but being thinking of doing some limited edition cigar accessories line 😎
Lovely new friend. Cuban? Wish she had gone more into how she acquired the lovely Russian accent.
She speaks 5 languages. 🤗
I have no doubt that the East represents the future especially with Asian countries increasingly joining BRICS. I like the idea of owning landed property in Malaysia. Not many Asian countries allow ownership of land. Malaysia does.
Can someone talk about the Malaysian currency that is appreciated very well lately
I did mention it!
Wow what an amazing woman.
Yes! 🤗
Thank you 🌿
How much is her unit? it's great.
Not sure
Hello pures1n you can click on the description of the video and get in touch from one of the websites
Nice apartment but no balcony.❤
Monica is gonna sell real estate in malaysia
even though you are retired in Malaysia, I thought it would be awesome if you did a series where you travel around the other asian countries and talk about their retirement visa schemes too ! eg Thailand, Indonesia etc ... and maybe interview expats that have retired there too !!! :)
Great idea if I could afford it. 😂
@@andrewtaylor4558 lol ! - woops ! :) lol
@@andrewtaylor4558 actually if your channel grows and grows ..... ;) :)
Any info on her condo for sale Taylor??
I’ll let her reply.
Great video, though I sense a lot of flirting 😮!
Mentioned market expected to Appreciate, in next 12-24 mos .. Why sell the Apt Now ?
I want re-invest in a 1 bed off plan, and keep some cash in hand. If I wait, that 1 bed will leave me without the extra cash on hand. Hope you get it :)
Looks young to be retired...
