Penang, Malaysia

After having visited Penang about three years ago on a Southeast Asia trip, I went back to the Malay island this November for a work trip.

Southeast Asia – Part 3: Georgetown, Malaysia

We arrived in Butterworth super early in the morning after a terribly long bus ride. The city is the gateway to the island Penang, where we were headed. After waiting for around two hours, we could finally board the first ferry, which took us to Georgetown in roughly 15 minutes.
