During our stay in Kuala Lumpur we had some free time between medical appointments to go and see the sights. We show you our top 5 things to do including the KL Bird Park, Petronas Towers, KLCC Aquarium, Batu Caves and Thean Hou Temple. There is so much to see and do so there are plenty of options in KL. We start at the Bird Park which is the largest free flight aviary in the world. Conditions are mixed and it is definitely not wheelchair friendy. Go early in the morning as there is little shade or air conditioning. Next we go to the Petronas Towers, you really want a clear day but have to book in advance so thats a difficult one but it is well worth the entrance fee. Aquaria KLCC surprised us as it is a lot better than Dubai or many other aquariums we have been to. The twisting tunnel allows longer and gives you a different perspective and its a good place on a hot day. Batu Caves is 272 steps to the top and worth it if you can walk that far. If you cant dont let that put you off and DON'T FEED THE MONKEYS. Thean Hou Temple is a fun short trip and we did this on the same day as Batu. You don't need long here and its close to the city so take some time and perhaps play snakes and ladders while you are here. There is so much to do in Kuala Lumpur so this was the top 5 WE did, we cover shopping in another video as well as healthcare and cost of living Check out our Ipoh Video: https://youtu.be/hMX8TDDyqmk Check out our Prince Court Healthcare Video : https://youtu.be/UsWp8r6S404 Check out our Cost of living in KL Video: https://youtu.be/MFwzG26lNBM Check out our Nomadversary video: https://youtu.be/kVJnDu3DnVI Check out our top 10 tips for full time retirement travel: https://youtu.be/tJYCKzp8Q0I #kualalumpur #batucaves #klbirdpark #petronastwintower #aquariaklcc #theanhoutemple #kl #travel #globalnomadtravel #worldtraveller #worldtravel #slowtravel #digitalnomad # digitalnomadlife #retireearly #retireearlyandtravel #financialindependenceretireearly Video Chapters 00:00 Introduction 00:36 KL Bird Park 05:43 Petronas Towers 08:45 Aquaria KLCC 13:06 Batu Caves 16:45 Thean Hou Temple 19:01 Thanks for watching Hi we are James and Helen and we are Global Nomads. We are a pair of British Expats that decided to retire in our early 50’s to travel the world full time. In 2004 we left Leicester in England to live in Davenport Florida and set up a Flower Shop. We brought our 2 Rottweilers along for the ride and they had a great life in the sun. Through all of the trials and tribulations that involves (Recession, COVID, Hurricanes, Inflation and everything else) in 2023 we sold that flower shop, our house and our car to become nomadic. We sold everything we own aside from some items in our storage unit mainly photos and a few keepsakes. We made the decision to be carry on only so while we do swap out our clothes dependent on the season and where we are going we travel light. In April 2024 we set off with 10 million credit card points and the money we had saved to become Global Nomads. We plan to use the credit card points to travel until they run out and will then start to spend our money on accommodation. So in the first 2 years or longer we will primarily be in Hiltons, Hyatt’s, IHG and Marriotts as we have Hotel status with all 4. We are not budget travelers and will fly first class if it is affordable or we can get it for points. We will take cruises to help us go from a to b or geoarbitrage as it is now called and because we want great deals with special experiences plan 18-24 months out. We then fill in the gaps as we get nearer to the time. Helen has an autoimmune disease which makes walking hard and accessing doctors and bloodwork were a major concern on our travels. We will document the process of appointments, prescriptions, bloodwork and keeping on top of all of that when you are thousands of miles from your primary care Doctor We love Formula 1 so will be at races if they match our dates and plans. Helen travels with a Nikon camera so wildlife photography is definitely a passion, as with all photography it comes with a lot of heavy gear that takes up valuable space and weight! Life is short, we intend to see everything we can while we are young….ish We are here for a good time, not a long time. https://www.facebook.com/GlobalNomads93/ https://www.instagram.com/globalnomads93?igsh=emg1ZzkybnJyOXZv Email: globalnomads93@gmail.com
