Choosing Malaysia as my study abroad country was the best decision I could have made. The diversity of the culture, the different tastes, the nearby travel opportunities; It all made this journey very special. I have never been to east Asia before, but now, I can say I visited almost every country in that region. Travel and food expenses are very low as well.
