We're Shafeen and Waseem, a married couple from California, originally from the Fiji Islands, who decided to break free from the chains of hustle culture and explore alternatives. Tired of the 9-5 grind, we traded our corporate jobs for a life of travel, adventure, and intentional living. Feeling unfulfilled and disconnected from our fast-paced lives, we quit our jobs for adventure and a better quality of life. Leaving our comfortable lives was tough. After years of research and planning, our longing for a simpler, more intentional life won. We packed our bags, said our goodbyes, and began our journey with open hearts. We've traveled widely, making memories, embracing slow travel, living in the moment, and finding joy in meaningful connections with people from all walks of life. We inspire you to break free from hustle culture and live authentically. On our RU-vid channel, we share our experiences, lessons, and practical tips to guide you on your path to a fulfilling life of freedom.
The penang road laksa is indeed really good, however I prefer Kim Laksa in Balik Pulau on the penang island as it's way more savoury there. There is also an extremely beautiful church in the same town that you can't miss the interior.
that cendol vendor.. really need to find a better way to served his product.. each of his ingredients can be put in a special dispenser.. where he only need to turn on the tap.. too messy using the ladles.. it just seems slightly unhygienic.. by the way.. you need to mix the ingredients together really well before you eat..
The portion was so huge we couldn’t mix the cendol properly but man did we enjoy it. It was so good! We were just grateful that we got a chance to enjoy this Malaysian dessert. Delicious 😋💛

Balik pulau will be the less touristy and more local side of penang island. Kim laksa there has one of the best assam laksa in Malaysia and the church there is really beuatiful. The side door would be open during off mass time hours, so do check the side doors to enter. The stained glass inside is extremely gorgeous
these videos are amazing! your iteniaries and food choices are really good imo and your personalities are so fun to watch! hope you keep making videos, im obsessed!
Thank you so much for your kind words! Virtual hug coming through. It means a lot to us. It would mean the world to us if you’re able to share our videos. 🙏🤗💛
do visit balik pulau church and the most important church in Malaysia, St Anne Basilica in Bukit Mertajam. Both are in Penang. Do see Assumption church in georgetown as well (2nd oldest church in Malaysia)
When u say Pinang alone ...it is not quite right....because Pinang in Malay is betel nut....the right word is Pulau Pinang....which means betel island...but the english just called it Penang....so when you say it in English...it is just Penang....but when you say it in Malay...it has to be Pulau Pinang....Pulau means island
Thanks so much for watching Anna! We appreciate you.🙏 Also, that Coimbatore Samosa has us drooling. Yummy. The garam masala and green chilis combo would be so 😋🤤
Hi..we are planning a trip to PD for diwali. Do you know if there is a deepavali bazaar in PD? Does PD have a little india? Maybe not as huge as tengku kelana klang but does it?

Do visit balik pulau area in penang. It has a very nice Kim assam laksa and a beautiful church that you could enter through the side doors during normal hours between 10 and 5pm
@@WeWanderlustCo are you all still in Malaysia? If so maybe you could extend your road trip to kedah area where the oldest civilisation of southeast Asia is located and the old Kuala kedah fort from the 1600s is
@@WeWanderlustCo there is also the minor basillica of st anne in bukit mertajam - the largest catholic gathering yearly in July in southeast Asia outside Phillipines. It's famous for its miracles and is considered one of the most extensive church compound in Malaysia
Your video is so refreshing and polite.. thank you very much for not being condescending like other RU-vidrs with there open mouth meme and I can't believe this Malaysia title as if they are surprised Malaysian doesn't kill visitors like you.. enjoy Malaysia looking forward to rediscovering our country.. so much had changed in such a short time. Many are good.. but many are also bad.. beautiful old things are being destroyed but new ones are created.. enjoy 😊
Thank you so much! 🙏 So happy you enjoyed the video. Malaysia is a beautiful place and interestingly enough it reminds us a lot of our home back in the Fiji Islands where we were raised🤗💛 I suppose some vloggers try to be sensational but we want our channel to be authentic and bring in viewers who are genuinely interested in our journey so thank you for being here. We would love for you to share our channel with anyone who may be interested in our content. Have a great week ahead ✨😊
do visit the expansive st anne basilica on the mainland of penang as well as assumption church in Georgetown. If possible, do take a detour to balik pulau - it's assam laksa and old local feel are matched with one of the most beautiful church in Penang - Holy name of jesus church
@@WeWanderlustCo are you all still in Malaysia or have you moved on to other countries? Also, churches in Malaysia open their right side doors or main entrance for off mass hours between 9 to 5pm.
