Default First timer - of sorts

Hello friends,
I've been on the road for a number of years but always as an ex-pat posted out of the UK with a return there at the end of each assignment. This has taken me around Africa and into India and in the main I've thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Now, for the first time, I'm actively considering taking a position based overseas - possibly in Malaysia (KL) or China (Shenzhen), and travelling on assignment from either of these locations.

I am used to a life on the road but not to a domestic base in the Far East, and so look forward to sharing experiences and stories along the way.

Very pleased to "meet" you bakedbean. Penang is high on my list of places to see having only been to KL and Sabah thus far. You are very kind to provide such a warm welcome.

Penang, KL and Sabah all very different places. Anyway... we can discuss over in the Malaysia sub-forum if you like?
