Making our way back to China:

Firstly we stopped over in Malaysia for 2 & half days. We stayed in downtown Kuala Lumpur, at Tune Hotels.

Malaysia was very hot every day, but we still had a good time exploring & eating different foods.

We walked through the local markets, & bought some Durian fruit. Neither Joel or I had ever tasted it before. It’s an unusual fruit, & the taste is hard to describe. Joel really enjoyed trying the new fruit.

While we were in Malaysia, we also bought a Manfrotto monopod from a little camera store, for around AUD $59, which is cheaper than most places back home. It’s a tripod but with only one leg, & convenient for when you’re travelling & on the go. It’s light & very easy to use.

We had a great time staying at the Tune Hotels. We stayed at 2 of them in Malaysia while we were there. We stayed at both the downtown Tune Hotel, and the KL Airport Tune Hotel. Tune Hotels are new (locations across Asia), & owned by AirAsia, who we like to fly with. They are cheap, convenient, but also clean & comfortable. For a good price, you can get a nice room & bathroom with a strong shower. You only pay for extras you want, such as towels (5 MYR per towel) & toiletries, Air Conditioning, Wifi. We liked this idea because it’s smart & more environmentally friendly to only use what you want.

We definitely recommend Tune Hotels!
