Penang for 4 months

nice food, friendly people, fun nightlife in Georgetown, allot of cultural things to do, not so good for beaches, altough allot of beach activities, dont rent a scooter or car but first see how the traffic goes, I was there for 4 months, never rented anything, we think it was to dangerous for us, allot of accidents on Penang

very nice for nature and to see teafarms and other farms, for 3-4days max. I liked Daniels lodge, it has a nice bar and food!!

We stayed in a condo, an appartment for 6 with a swimmingpool, sauna, garden and fitness, this for 1200 RM a month
every day we had to go to work with the bus, a 20 min drive to jalan bagan jermal, near gurney drive
you never know when the bus will come, but we do know they start around 6h30 am untill around 10 pm
you find allot of geust houses (cheap), nightmarket and foodcourt

i drove over the bridge in the ealy morning, you can see the sunrise, very beatifull
people only take the bridge with the car or bus, when you're on food you take the ferry, the boat that goes from butterworth to penang, from every stop you can take the bus

you can eat the indian food and snacks, the fried bananadough is verry nice!! I bought some indian bangles, nice collorsin chuliastreet you also find allot of geusthouses,in the weekends we went to 'banana geusthouse'in chulia street, so we could go out in the clubs

2 belgian friends stayed there, not allot of tourists, most local people, so very natural

we walked to the lighthouse; it was very uncomfortable and at the end we were very tired; the lighthouse closes in the afternoon, around 4pm, and man who worked there took us back with his boat, because I dont think we would make it on time back befor dark; you also can go there with a boat from the village, so you dont have to do th long walk, we took about 2,5hours to go up, it was a walk with allot of upsticals of nature, much fun!!

butterworth is the place to take buses, to outher cities of Malaysia, via butterworth you can take the ferry to Penang

at the back of this hotel you have a very nice private beach, one day we had to go there for a conforence about our studies, and we where on the beach when sudenly there was a very big eguana comming out of the sea and walked to the bushes, a never saw such a large reptile in the wild

this hotel has a very large beach and all the beach activities you find on a holliday, a big pool and a deli france restaurant, the chef of deli france is a friend of us, so say hi when you see him, his name is victor, an indian
