    Thank You for informing me that Penang is getting hotter. The removal of shady trees has led to unbearable heat even for the locals.

    All the best where ever your family ends up. The world is a big place. Lots of learning and adventures awaits.

    It's a fair point, that's probably the only con for me, the intense humidity. But Malaysia has too many good things going for it.

    I really appreciate how you addressed the not-so-glamorous issues of your one-year stay in Penang so gracefully, even though it didn&apos;t work out for you in the end.<br><br>I grew up in Penang but left decades ago and never looked back. Penang just isn&apos;t for everyone. <br><br>I&apos;ve subscribed to see how your journey develops. My partner and I are on a similar search for new adventures and a new base, so we&apos;ll definitely be watching closely!

    Good to stumble across this video. We were considering moving there so seeking disconfirming evidence and this is helpful.

    You are right. So that is why we go Vienna and other places where there is SNOW.

    All the best. Can’t do anything about the hot weather except adjust and enjoy its high and emphasize with its lows. Hope u’ve fully experienced our nature before you leave this region. Thanks for ur sharing.

    thanks for sharing and being so frank. &nbsp;I do agree the heat. &nbsp;I was born malaysia and now in the US. &nbsp;Each time I head home to visit my family, i just cannot stand the heat. &nbsp;But for sure it&apos;s the best place to live and retire. &nbsp;all the best to ur family where ever you decided to plant ur roots.
