As a budget traveler, I rarely get an opportunity As a budget traveler, I rarely get an opportunity to experience some of those premium features that larger airlines offers even for economy passengers. so this recent Malaysia trip has been special to me as it was the first time I get to experience some of that luxury.

The MNL-KUL flight was the first time I got to be seated on a seat with adjustable headrests and inflight entertainment accessible through mobile device as the flight did not have the system itself.

KUL-MNL however had the entertainment system itself which is nice, alongside complementary headphones and USB charging and adjustable headrests.

All in all, a very memorable and pleasant flight experience, courtesy of @flypal! 😎✈️
One thing I notice in parliamentary countries is t One thing I notice in parliamentary countries is that architecturally, their parliament buildings are much grander compared to the prime minister's office. But Malaysia is one of those exceptions where there's a grand prime minister's office in a vast but sterile area outside Kuala Lumpur (Putrajaya) while its parliament building looks like a non-descript concrete skyscraper in busy KL that's not visually appealing, sorry to say.

    Destileria Limtuaco Museum: Intramuros’ Liquor Hideaway

    April 11, 2018

    Many people usually associate Intramuros with being the center of government and the Catholic faith during the Spanish colonial period and, in modern times, a center of education and where seafarers stay. But recently, a new and “different” facet of Intramuros was unveiled to the public early this year: that of a “liquor hideaway.” No it is not a liquor distillery that opened in the area.
