Hi John & Sheri,
We have literally just returned from Penang ( & Langkawi) as part of a 6 week Asia trip.
We basically wanted to ascertain if there was any place in Thailand or Malaysia that would woo us away, for part of the year, from a very nice (but expensive) life in Australia.
Alas we did not find anywhere that suited.
We gave it a good crack, staying 4-6 days in airbnb's in each town/city experiencing/engaging in both expat and local areas.

Hey Mike - that's fantastic! Unfortunately I leave on the 27th for two weeks otherwise I would have happily caught up with you. Straits has changed a lot, for the better in the last year or so too with lots of good restuarants opening. Healy Macs for social events like trivia too on a Monday night is pretty popular. Sorry that I'll miss you - next time.
