Some may find it strange that a host of erotic parties has chosen to make a conservative country such as Malaysia her second home. But for Sarah Jane Banahan, the founder of The Play Experience, a company that hosts luxurious erotic parties, Malaysia is the place she comes home to relax. 

“I like the hot weather – England is too cold,” the 31-year-old Briton says.

Having lived in Malaysia for the past two-and-a-half years, Banahan has found the time to manage a bar in Kuala Lumpur on top of juggling her erotic-party business in Europe and Australia. Banahan, however, says she has no plans to expand her parties into Malaysia.

“I understand that Malaysia is a Muslim country and is generally conservative. I feel that you have to be respectful – that is why I don’t host parties here,” she says. “I also try to dress appropriately and cover up a bit. I don’t wear really short tops with my boobs hanging out.”

I’ve always been a bit wild. I’ve rebelled against my strict upbringing

With her light blond hair tumbling down in loose curls, stopping at the slim waistline of her white knee-length dress, Banahan looks the part of a budding entrepreneur.
