Hi, I’m Jing!
Your Local Companion in Penang | Food, Culture & Authentic Penang Experiences & Business Support
Welcome to Jing Journal! – where the exploration of authentic Penang intersects with personal and digital business growth.
Having been born and raised in Penang, I am an enthusiastic foodie, a curious soul, and a collector and storyteller of experiences like any good friend.
After traveling through 22 countries and 42 cities, I realized that home has the most fascinating stories to share. As an self-study ACCA-qualified accountant who transitioned into content creator I blend insider knowledge with a global perspective. My posts on Redbook frequently attract thousands of views because I focus on sharing true experience of Penang’s food, culture and offerings.
Explore Penang Food & Local Services
Penang is a culinary paradise, but we lead ordinary lives, so practicality is important too. Here, you can discover the food, the stories, and the service that locals like us have experienced—suitable for both residents and expatriates alike.
Discover Penang’s Culture & History
I have journeyed through more than 42 cities, while my sister has explored over 200 cities worldwide, traveling solo as a female adventurer from Syria to Norway. We have returned to Penang to be with our mom because there’s nothing better than being home with family. As we began to discover our own hometown of Penang, we realized that it boasts a rich culture and history that we had never fully appreciated or anticipated.
