Adventure Travel in Penang, Malaysia // S02E07

Join us as we travel up to Penang Island in the north of Malaysia via train for a budget backpacking adventure. We show you how far your money will go, where to stay, how to get around, and what we discovered (the good and the bad) in one of the must-see locations of South East Asia. BEFORE WE GET ANY HATE: Yes, we are hypocrites when it comes to environmental issues! We all are, in some way and it’s hard not to be. We drive cars, we get on flights, at times we opt to support local markets that use plastic to cups. However, this issue is bigger than us alone. We are all stuck in this fossil-fuel economy and without GLOBAL change, our lifestyles will continue to cause climate and ecological harm. We need bigger players, industries, and governments to act as well. The communities and people like you and us need help and the support to do more for our planet. We were stoked to see that in Malaysia’s cities some stores were opting out of single-use plastic! We’re all from different countries, but share the same planet, and only together can we begin to make positive changes. We can all do better, so let’s do it and let’s do it together without blame and hate, but with love and support ❤
