3 Things
I recommend the three following items that will immensely improve your trip: a good quality (but affordable) memory card, an international plug adapter, and noise reduction earphones. Bus days in Malaysia can be long, so headphones or earphones are invaluable to help the time fly by. And the other two are pretty important too to ensure you can charge your belongings and have a reliable place for your photos.
