I can't believe it's gonna take us 45 hours to get to Malaysia. Well, the madness begins
0:18
We are about to travel halfway around the world to Malaysia right now. We're in Fort Lauderdale
0:22
it's 6 a.m. and we're going to arrive in Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur, 5 p.m. on Friday afternoon
0:28
So two days from now, this is absolutely insane. This is like the longest travel day ever
0:31
Basically like 24 hours in planes, four hours in New York, 17 hours in Hong Kong
0:38
And then we make it to Kuala Lumpur which is insane. Yeah, so it's like 45 hours traveling 50 door to door
0:45
And what's crazy is you can tell that we're more advanced travelers now because it doesn't seem that crazy like 50 hours
0:50
It's like okay, let's do it. We're on the road. I think it's pretty crazy We're gonna have like a place to shower, a place to sleep. So..
0:57
We have to buy toothpaste. I think it's gonna be intense. Oh, we do have to buy toothpaste. Let's go to New York
1:14
Welcome to JSA. The local time is 9.17 a.m. We made it to New York
1:20
But now we have to find our luggage because we booked flights separately
1:24
We have to switch terminals and wait about four hours for a flight to Hong Kong
1:29
And I think we have to leave the airport and we don't have jackets And it's what? 30 degrees? I don't know
1:50
We haven't been here in a long time
2:02
Come back once warmer. Thank God that we don't have to go outside
2:17
I was not ready for that. Terminal 8. Terminal 8. So we just found out that to go to Malaysia you need to have proof of an onward ticket
2:29
And we definitely didn't have that. We just had a one-way to Kuala Lumpur. So we just booked some phantom tickets from Kuala Lumpur back to Hong Kong on March 23rd
2:37
We're about to cancel those when we go through security. But it's our only way in right now
2:42
We're all checked in. We went through security. And it's just like starting to kick in that we're going to Asia
2:47
we're going to Asia, it's my first time going to Southeast Asia so I am very
2:50
excited it feels like a new chapter for Ways of the World we have never like traveled this far so we are very very excited the only bad news is that
2:58
there's no lounge here so we're just hanging out here catching up with work
3:02
getting really tired so we can sleep the whole way there but I'm very excited I
3:07
really never thought I would see this part of the world which sounds crazy as a
3:12
traveler but i really never thought i would i'm excited are you excited can't wait about 17 more
3:19
hours till we get to asia that's a long time 30 something more hours till we get to malaysia
3:27
the adventures begin you People are staring at me
3:49
They're barking on their leg. We're not even like that crazy yet, you know
4:00
We're only eight hours in and it's already... Is it eight hours? Yeah
4:04
Good sign. we'll check in on hour 10. first check-in out of time. stay tuned
4:21
this is gonna be long and crazy i really feel a little bit crazy. lucky me
4:29
I do feel kind of crazy I'm still filming
5:22
and 17 hours later, we are in Hong Kong. airport that was a bit of a brutal and unglamorous flight it was intense it was so long uncomfortable
5:59
we didn't eat the babies we were surrounded by a ring of screaming babies and we feel
6:05
bad for their parents but we also feel bad for ourselves we didn't sleep much at all
6:11
and now we have i think 15 or 16 hours here in hong kong and it's 7 pm and we don't know
6:17
what to do we haven't slept in 26 hours already we didn't eat so we have to find food i was
6:22
promised noodles and dumplings so I promised noodles and dumplings I think
6:28
our best bet is at the lounge I got to Hong Kong and she's humping
6:38
okay when it's a regroup mentally physically So maybe you're wondering why we put ourselves through these ridiculous travel days and the
6:53
real reason is because we're still using miles for all of our longer flights but we're running
6:57
short for this year so I wanted to use miles with a carrier that I don't use a lot with miles which
7:02
is Alaska Airlines so we paid like 22,500 each to get all the way to from New York to Kuala Lumpur
7:08
which is very cheap usually you pay like 1100 dollars one way to get all the way to Asia so we
7:13
We've saved a ton and now that we're here, it's not the worst airport to be for like 15 hours
7:18
Obviously it kind of sucks, but at least they have like 24 hour lounges I mean we have to bounce around a little bit but it pretty comfortable it a nice spot we about to get some dinner dinner breakfast lunch whatever i don really know so they didn have dumplings but they had this delicious
7:40
green curry with jasmine rice so we're gonna have dinner and the plan is to stay here until
7:45
midnight right now it's 10 p.m. we are... wait a second... 28 and a half hours into
7:54
our 50-hour journey more or less and then at midnight we're gonna try to find
7:59
a sleeping area or another lounge that opens from 12 to 7 and hopefully that's
8:03
how we're gonna survive the night we'll keep you posted but now we wanna eat
8:30
You want to stay here? It's just I'm not tired. I do
8:35
I think I would wake up with the worst back pain. Let's find the last lounge on the night
8:40
There's zero cushion. It's just, it's very hard. bye home for the night number two three
8:56
yeah home till seven hopefully there's a place to lay down i don't think so
9:03
things have taken a turn we decided to come to a lounge but this is our bed
9:09
So we booked a shower for 5 a.m. in this lounge. We can stay here until 6.30
9:17
And I think we're just going to sit here, sleep on the table, hope for a chair on the other side of the lounge
9:22
to sleep a couple hours. We have been 31 hours. So that's our life
9:32
That's our life. This is what we signed up for. I want to cry
9:52
Night night. We went for it. Apparently we don't sleep anymore
10:03
Sleeping is overrated. But we drink a lot of coffee. Coffee is good
10:07
It's finally time to shower. It's 5 a.m. We did not sleep as we mentioned earlier
10:12
but this is going to be so nice because I have been dreaming about the shower since we left Florida
10:18
So this is going to be awesome. There's a lot of space. I have everything I need. So if you see me with a different outfit, it's because I'm nice and clean
10:25
I need to wash my face, brush my teeth, but I only have 20 minutes, and you have to book the shower in advance. They clean it all. It's impeccable here
10:32
So I need to put the camera away because I need to take advantage of my 20 minutes
10:37
There's a toilet, a sink, the shower with all the products, towels, and a space to put your stuff
10:57
That was without a doubt the best shower of my life Life right We are like brand new Like nothing has happened I had 10 hours of sleep I sure I gonna crash soon but this was very very nice We be relaxed Ready for the last step
11:18
We still have um six hours to go and we're gonna switch lounges pretty soon. But now we're closer
11:26
I got you. I don't know, I'm in a neighborhood. and after 42 hours it's finally time for us to catch up our last flight to kuala lumpur i think
12:16
like four hours right about four hours he slept i haven't feels like we had an entire travel series
12:25
here in Hong Kong Airport. It's like this is our home. We should get a mug. We should get a coffee mug to commemorate this experience
12:33
Let's get to Kwananpur finally. we made it one week later we're in Kuala Lumpur it's nice and warm and it feels good
13:11
time to get through customs Thank you
13:55
We finally made it. Our apartment is very nice, it's very comfortable, has a beautiful view, but we are very tired
14:06
It has literally been 50 hours. What do you have to say about that
14:11
I've never been happier to see a bed in my lifetime. So
14:15
At 7. No, at 7.50 p.m. we'll be in bed by night
14:19
Yep. But, welcome to the Malaysia Travel Series. We will be here 10 days. I don't know if I already said that
14:25
It was worth the wait. We'll see. No, I'm sure it is. Thank you for watching and we will see you when we show you Kuala Lumpur in the next video
14:33
