Ko Samui: I love the laid-back atmosphere on this Island. Its a perfect tropical getaway. I sometimes stay there for weeks at time.
Hong Kong: Its the flavorful cuisine that does it for me. Anthony Bourdain once said that Hong Kong was his favorite food city in the world. I concur.
Kuala Lumpur: A melting pot that works. People are very chill and respectful. Its clean and cheap. People speak english. Amazing street food markets.
Honorable Mentions: Kyoto and Chiang Mai.

Tokyo. Bangkok. Bali.
KL and Singapore for sure.
I’ll be in Thailand for a little under 2 weeks. I know it’s not long but thinking about flying to Chiang Mai and Ko Samui for a few days at a time. What are some things to check out in these 2 areas if I only have 2-3 days in each?
No need to check out anything in particular. Just walk around and enjoy the vibe. Rent a scooter in Ko Samui and take long walks inside Chiang Mai square (moat)
Go to kao sok
Grab a scooter and go up to Pai for a night from Chiang Mai.
Orchid Island - Taiwan
Koyasan - Japan
Boracay - Philippines
Phetchabun
Mae Hong Son
Bangkok or Tokyo, can't decide. Very different but both a lot of fun
Other than those I've only been to Chiang Mai and Pattaya; both shite.
