We are so excited to be in Kuala Lumpur! It is our first time in Malaysia and it is BREATHTAKING from the moment the plane lands. Even the roads and Grab driver's cars are SO nice! In this video we talk all things delicious food, things to do, gorgeous views, vibes, transportation, and more to give a full first impression of this beautiful country!
Transportation is easy with Grab cars, BUT when it is raining, that all changes. We had so many cars cancel on us while it was raining, even getting stranded in a parking lot under a small shelter for 40 minutes! Luckily we found the metro and monorail to be super clean, easy, and reliable!
We eat Laksa and Roti at Limapulo: Baba Can Cook, Meat Bone Tea at Hing Kee Bakuhteh, delicious Chinese food at Yut Kee (fried pork, salted plum juice), and in Chinatown, Nam Heong Chicken Rice (chicken rice & pork) and Restoran Pik Wah (yummy duck), and enjoy one of our favorite chains, Din Tai Fung. The variety of incredible food is off the charts in this city! And we absolutely love getting a taste for the local Malaysian food!
We love the blend of the traditional and the modern you find in this city. Visiting the gorgeous National Mosque, historic Merdeka Square, mega malls, Thean Hou Temple, and OF COURSE the famous Batu Caves!
Travel makes the world seem smaller, but the fact that we saw people we know at the top of the Batu Caves AMAZES me! The earth is a tiny marble. This Hindu temple is so colorful and stunning.
Lastly, you can't enjoy this city without spending time appreciating the Petronas Towers. We visited Vertigo Bar at the top of Banyan Tree for epic views, a tower light show, and happened to get to watch a storm roll in! It was such an incredible evening, but thanks to the storm, we had to come back to the towers another night to enjoy the light and fountain show at the base. Such a fun wholesome way to finalize our first impressions of this city.
Possibly the most underrated city in Asia!

Welcome to madventure, we're MADison and iVEN (okay it is spelled Ivan, but pronounced like VENture) a husband and wife living the adventure we have been dreaming of, despite the fact that it makes us sound completely mad. For us that looks like traveling full time and starting our own businesses.
For Madison, a former reality TV producer, the dream is the madventure community, connecting people through travel, experiencing new cultures, and trying the best foods from carts, stands and restaurants all over the world. She hopes to encourage others to follow their maddest most adventurous dreams, whatever they may be!
For Ivan, a former NASA engineer, it is creating an engineering product that will change the world!
Travel and food are two of our biggest passions, so on this channel we will be traveling the world, and staying awhile to experience what life is actually like living other places. We're excited to have you on board for the delicious, culture filled, madventurous times that will ensue! Let's madventure! xoxo
