Finding an answer in the chaos

Yes.

My dad is a “Kampung boy”, his village was in a small area in Malacca Town. It’s a small wooden house on stilt surrounded by wild grass (no one stays there anymore). There’s plenty of mango trees around. I hasn’t have the chance to explore this area, but I love Malacca town. It’s a city full of history, with many historical remains to feel with the five senses, and the culture along this one way street is rich. It’s also one of the city in Malaysia where smoking is ban, I love it.

My mum is a “Kampung girl”, living in a small fishing village. Opposite her house is an old school petrol station (like those you find in the middle of the highway route in US), and just behind it is the beach, where all the fishermen park their fishing boats. I go there very often till the passing of my grandpa last year. No one stays at the old house anymore, and everything remains as it is ever since. This is a small, humble town which is a favorite weekend getaway for many.

As much as we love by the nature which explains why the current place that we stays in is in the Kampung area, although it’s a modernised brick house.
