Lives in Kuala Lumpur, クアラ・ルンプル マレーシア
Hello! I'm Papazon, your go-to guide creator for exploring the vibrant vicinity of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Though I may not have formal credentials in map-making, my wife, who has extensive experience with a tourist map publishing company, and I collaborate to design maps that are not only accurate but also user-friendly. My journey in the realm of tourism extends to YouTube, where I've undertaken several projects creating travel-centric videos. My forte lies in compact, low-budget travels with minimal baggage, embodying the essence of a true adventurer. While I cherish the simplicity and rawness of travel, I also emphasize cost-effectiveness, especially for family vacations, ensuring you get the most value out of your exploration.

It's about delving deeper into the heart of Kuala Lumpur, understanding its essence, and sharing that precious knowledge with as many people as possible. Every map I create is a blend of meticulous research, personal experiences, and a keen eye for detail, ensuring you have a reliable companion in your pocket as you navigate through the bustling streets and serene spots of Kuala Lumpur. By choosing my guides, you're not just getting a piece of paper, but a gateway to an authentic Malaysian adventure. I am enthusiastic about helping you discover the hidden gems and popular locales, making your journey an enriching experience. So, come along, and let's unravel the beauty of Kuala Lumpur together!
