Georgetown, Penang. We arrived in Penang after a very long journey in a very hot minibus. Our hostel was quite central although it was quite a quiet place, we were next to part of the town called little India which was where we ate on the first night. Food was ok although we spotted a mouse next to us!
We had one full day in Georgetown and used the tourist map to find all the street art in the town, it was quite good to do as we got to cover most of the town and get our bearings. We spent the afternoon in the big Kontar Shopping Mall, we made the most of the tester makeup in the big department stores and were in heaven when we saw H & M and could stock up on some fresh clothes. We enjoyed our last evening in a bar where we were able to have some western food and the drinks were free for ladies.
We had quite a big dorm in this hostel so got to meet some nice girls in there and hear about where they had been travelling too
Spookily our particular dorm was called the Paris dorm and it was whilst we were here the attacks happened in Paris. It has shaken us a little though as its so close to home, we are hopeful all the places we are travelling should be quite safe, fingers crossed!
