Homestay in Malaysia




Arriving in Malaysia, you land in the ultra modern Sepang International airport and ride into Kuala Lumpur where you marvel at the tallest twin towers in the world, Petronas Towers. After checking into a 200 rooms hotel, you take to the shopping mall located below the Twin Tower. Most people around you seem hurried to get somewhere or busy chatting away into their cell phones. But the real Malaysia is not all this but something else as well. Many of the population still live in a unhurried and rather charming and traditional lifestyle, where time seems to go at snails pace and the air clean and fresh. Treat yourself to a village(Kampung in Malay) Homestay in Malaysia.


Be "adopted" by a family and be treated as a member of the family for the duration of your stay. To get a better appreciation of the culture, you may wear traditional attire, go fishing in a river, play kites with the children, eat simple local food, observe local customs, architecture, and furniture and participate in village activities. As they are mostly a Muslim village, there is no alcohol and it is respectful to dress modestly. Many villages still rely on agriculture as their primary source of income.

A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving. Flights to Khartoum
