Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Arrival in KL
By the time I finally arrived in KL it was midnight as opposed to midday this made it lots of fun trying to get to the apartment that I had rented on Air B&B as I have to get the host to wait up until 2 in the morning to let me in.
Thankfully the apartment that I rented was in an amazing building 38 stories high and had an infinity pool on the roof with a view of the two towers. I didn't get a chance to see it when I first arrived because it was too late but I did manage to get food down in the restaurant attached to the apartment block just before they closed at 2 a.m.
First thing I did, of course, was to purchase a local SIM card at the airport when I arrived, a new thing for me to do. Having a data connection at all times proved to be an essential requirement in this trip moreso than any other I took before and certainly saved a LOT of headaches going forward.
