Alcohol-free tours and hotel mocktail menus demonstrate that fun doesn’t require alcohol consumption. While millions commit to ‘Dry January,’ the trend is extending beyond the New Year, with only 38 percent of young adults being regular drinkers, according to Gallup.

Penang is a unique and vibrant state located in the northwest coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Known as the “Pearl of the Orient”, Penang is a popular tourist destination that offers visitors a mix of cultural heritage, stunning natural scenery, delicious local cuisine and modern amenities. In this article, I’ll show you what makes Penang a must-visit destination for anyone planning a trip to Malaysia. I caught the train from KL to Penang – what an easy trip! I do suggest wearing something warm on the train as the air con can be turned right up. A day later, I ended up getting quite a nasty cold from it. The comfort of the train, however, was great as was the food service that came around intermittantly. Penang was a easy destination and if you love food you have come to the right place!
