Wherever you travel, there are a few messages worth documenting. One is from a hostel in Sarawak, Kuching, Borneo where the management requires that you leave your shoes before entering the facility - much like what we do in Alaska before coming into someones home. The t-shirt sign in Kuala Lumpur was unusual. I wonder if people really understand what they wear and its impact? This city is known to be very tolerant of all religions although it is predominantly an Islamic country. The night life in KL is bustling, colorful, and teeming with energy; ethic restaurants, one after another side by side can go on for blocks, and it is a manageable city to get from one place to another.
Singapore is known to be very strict and a heavily regulated city where one can get fined heavily for being caught spitting out chewing gum or jay walking. It is one of the safest cities in the world though, but the cost of living is very expensive. I could live quite comfortably in either city and Ken and I often talk about these possibilities.
