Malaysia’s food culture is renowned for its diversity, offering an endless array of choices. Hirina was particularly amazed by how her taste buds evolved during her time in Malaysia.

But it wasn’t just the food that won her heart; it was also the people. Malaysia’s multiracial society impressed her with genuine kindness, care, and warm nature.

While she acknowledged the politeness of her fellow Japanese citizens, she noted that Malaysians had a unique knack for connecting through conversation, making her feel a true sense of belonging.

Lastly, her love extended to the feline inhabitants of Malaysia. She couldn’t help but notice the adorable stray cats that roamed the streets.
