Staying nearby amenities is an important factor to me too. So, if it is far away in a small town, and not nearby hospital and clinics, highly likely my parents will not like to stay there too. And you did the right thing on inspecting thoroughly, what needed to be done and costing to weigh the pros and cons. Well, when one door closes, means another door will open. A better one. 😉
Also, if you were here in Kuala Lumpur, oh my, there will be many places to bring you. First, we will feed you all the local food. Then tour the KL Tower and Twin Tower, and many farms to visit too. Probably beach but nahhh, our beaches aren't so crystal clear clean. That - you can bring me to your beach if I am there. Haha. Maybe bring you to eat durian, King of fruits here. Haha. Because they say people either love it or hate it. Some tourists spot here which I myself have never been to. So, two days not enough. You need to extend your stay. 😁
:) Yes! That is exactly what I was hoping for! Local food and a tour of the highlights~
No beach is right. I have a nice beach right here. I like durian! I have had it more than a couple of times. It took a little bit of getting used to the aroma, but it kind of reminds me of Limburger cheese. If you can get past the smell, you will be rewarded with the taste. I know a lot of people don't like it, citing the smell. In Singapore, it used to be banned in public places! I know there are more Asian places like that also.
I don't go to the huge tourist spots either. :) Guilty!
I agree with you there! My parents would not have bought it either! :) No matter how a person fights it, we will all get their age someday, so might as well not box yourself into something you may regret in later years.
It will be fine, and there will be another house, and when I step into it, it will feel 100% mine.
Thanks for stopping b and leaving your words!
#MarketFriday loves you!
