One Month in Langkawi, Malaysia | Travelling The World Continuously

1 Month In Langkawi

I spent one month being a Digital Nomad in Langkawi Malaysia! I lounged on beaches, hiked mountains and explored waterfalls while working on my online business and earning money on one of South East Asia’s most under rated islands.

Don't make misconceptions

Langkawi is Malaysia’s popular Duty Free holiday island. I intended to spend only a few days here, drinking a few cheap beers and relaxing on the beach before moving on.
I thought the island would be over touristy, over priced for everything except alcohol and lacking in things to keep me there.

How it really is

I found the beaches were beautiful, quiet and relaxed. Exploring the island took longer than I’d anticipated, the rugged nature of Langkawi is absolutely beautiful. I found waterfalls, mangroves, karst limestone cliffs and white sand beaches.

It was cheaper than I’d imagined too. While it is possible to spend big money here- there are five star resorts, private islands and upscale restaurants- for the most part I found myself eating at local Malay, Indian and Chinese restaurants. The beer was cheap, the WiFi was great and Malaysia even gave me a three month visa on arrival!

These are some of the photos I took while being there. Have you been?
