You WON'T Believe The Power of "Tempoyak": • 🇲🇾 You WON'T Believe T...
A SUPER fun time traveling around the great city of Kuala Lumpur today, with the purpose of budgeting (the equivalent of) 20$US for all of our food, transport, and fun! Thank you so much for joining us... let's get this day rolling!!
After you watch the video, I have many details and numbers down below... but I do of course include all those things in the video as well (I would say just watch the video instead of reading all this :) )
SO! Thanks again for hanging out with us in KL today, although I've visited Malaysia nearly a dozen times since 2009 (first visit!), it is SO great to be here with Li for this one!! :)
I have never made a video like this before, but as a solo traveler of COURSE I have kept very close track over all those years - I have endless notes on my computer and phone detailing my expenditure for differents towns and countries all over the world. I have noticed that it's a pretty good rough estimate to search online (you can do this before you go of course), try to get a good idea of what a normal hotel room price is, and then imagine that same amount of money as your daily expenditure throughout the trip.
FYI, for this trip, that same idea works out perfectly, and I didn't even have to plan it! Our hotel room was 85RM, and this day our spending (actually we only used 78RM of our 88RM budget) felt fine.
COST OF OUR DAY:
We saved 10RM in the end, but we did not visit any national site (it rained most of the afternoon), and so I assume that the price would still wind up the same (we were planning to visit the Batu Caves, which are free, but getting there one could assume would cost the price of a few commuter train tickets round trip...)
6RM = Breakfast (Bangladeshi food)
2RM + 1 RM = Snacks, Drink
FREE = Metro Pass (Free for the month of July, 2022)
9RM = Lunch (Malay food)
3 RM = Tea after lunch
17RM = One Entire CEMPADAK :)
10RM + 7RM = Dinner (Malay Food) + Fruit Shake
**A phone card for 2 days unlimited internet is about 15RM
**Our flights from Thailand cost (100$US) 450RM each way.
LOCATION:
Rashid's Restaurant (where we had breakfast) is next door to this electronics shop...
