About Me
Selamat datang! Welcome to my site. My name is Mimi. I'm a Filipina married to a Malaysian. Kuala Lumpur -- or KL, as the locals call it -- has been my home since 1993.

I love it when readers (that's you!) leave lots of comments but if you prefer to email me instead, you can do so at mimi[at]sleeplessinkl[dot]com.
