“Malaysia is different in that I can travel more on the weekends you know, its not just bars all the time – although I don’t mind the bars – but there’s just so much more to see; it’s such a small country, so its so much easier to travel to the islands…”

“I moved here from the Netherlands like 7 weeks ago, started work 6 weeks ago with MyTeksi – and its such a huge change from the Netherlands. 

“My friends look up to me for making such a big decision and moving so far away, its always something that people want to do, and something that they are a bit afraid of. But I admire them for so many different reasons, so I think in a weird way we all look up to each other for different things.”

“I just decided I needed some big change, something far away and its got its hurdles – but I came looking for a fresh start so I can’t complain. Its like starting a new chapter in a book”.
