I would love to actually have email conversations with you about questions I have for someone who actually "lives" there (not sounding like a stalker or anything!). I have met expats who live there but none that are "American". Things are just so different. We have "found" a house, but due to the Chinese New Year, everything was put on HOLD for everyone to celebrate! My husband is still in K.L. It seems as though I will have lots to get used to! I did think the people in K.L. are really nice. The secretary at my husbands office was so helpful, (few flaws, but no one is perfect, except me! lol). The food was a bit different (to say the least) my husbands co workers continued to insist we eat local and Chinese food, I figure me and my kids will get really skinny, kind of like going to a fat farm! <BR/>I can only imagine how the "smells" that they have in different places would really bother a pregnant person, I feel for you! <BR/>We are "going" to be living in the Mt. Kiara/Bangsar area, which seems to be close to all my needs, but my husband went to the Tropicana area today and fell in love, it may be simply the golf course! We have sent in the boys applications for Mont’ Kiara International. <BR/><BR/>Your blog has opened my eyes to a few things, like no season's changing... I am sure I will miss that also. And the supper bowl commercials! WOW, that was an eye opener. My husband is looking into some kind of online cable network or something like that so we will be able to watch all the LSU games. But as you said, it will be something we watch over breakfast, not beer and chips, (and the occasional GUMBO!) Wish you the best, hope the fridge thing straightens itself out. Take care!<BR/>MariAnneCajun (Expat) Malaysianshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823703559377835591noreply@blogger.com
