Today, I took a very cheap 2 hour flight from Kuching to Penang, departing at 1220. My 1day/2night stay there would be the first of three stays as I use the island as a hub for other travel … thanks to cheap airfares and cheap accommodation (at the Tune Hotel, costing quarter cent Euro per night, plus aircon and towel surcharge).
Penang is renowned for its food and its fame now expands beyond this, with its capital Georgetown having been awarded the UNESCO World Heritage status. I intend to make my three stays a culinary experience!
