Sharon Gourlay

Hai! I’m Sharon.

I’m the founder and main writer on Malaysia Uncovered. I’ve been exploring Malaysia for over 20 years and called Penang home with my kids. I can’t get enough of this great place. I love the culture, attractions and scenery. It’s all stunning. And did I mention the food?! THE BEST!

My aim is to provide you with a complete resource for your visit to Malaysia as well as the encouragement to go.

All our content is written from our personal experience. I travel around Malaysia multiple times a year to ensure the content on this site is up-to-date, incredibly informative and helpful for you whether it’s your first trip to Malaysia or your twentieth. It’s a hard job but someone has to do it.
