This past weekend 5 friends and I traveled to the city of Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. It was my first trip while being here so I was nervous and excited on how it would go. Since Malaysia is just north of Singapore, we took a night bus (approx. 6 hours) into the capital of the country. The bus ride stopped twice for us to go through immigration and customs. Note: When traveling make sure not to forget your passport, student visa and for possible student discounts your student ID. Overall, the trip was great and I definitely learned a lot about myself and how to plan for future travels! One thing I learned/noticed about Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: Traffic and driving is pretty bad. So you must be careful as a driver and especially as a pedestrian.
Studying abroad, is a great opportunity for you to travel to other countries! Especially living in Hawaii, traveling can be quite expensive so if you have the academic and financial ability, I highly recommend that you take the advantage to visit some nearby countries. I don't know if I'll ever come back to Singapore or Malaysia again, so I'm extremely happy to have had the opportunity to collect a magnet from these countries and add them to my "been there, done that" list. A list, I hope you'll be able to create as well.
