I was planning to stay in Phuket to the summer after serving my 11 yrs life in CANADA. Recently I am thinking to stay in SE Asia for a few more years. We are a family with two girls (5 and 7 yrs). Not sure if there are anyone with experences in Penang. I have neven been there before but I know there are also many expats.
Can anyone compare the pros and cons for both islands?
For me, a few obvious pros I can think for Penang is :
More Chinese food and culture (I grew up in China)
Not a major tourism island
Any other pros and cons? Thanks.
