Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Create something that I can hook onto people's emotion, and give a lasting impact on their perception about life.
ABOUT ME
Did a year cycling & hitchhiking around Eastern Hemisphere, went through 34 countries and met tons of new friends!
I have a very simple principle that's based on one word, "Appreciate," I might not understand every aspect of life, but I appreciate everything that exists because everything connects to everything and we are all here because of what has happened before. Hence, appreciate everything around you, because it might not be around anymore the next time you turn your head around :)
I'm open to all opinions as it shapes my mind to understand all perspectives, having a different perspective helps me understand a person and his/her viewpoint of life, and that fascinates me. :)
PHILOSOPHY
Like I said, appreciate.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It was the main reason I was able to find shelter as I was traveling, so it would only be right if I can offer the same to visitors to my country now.
Can't offer shelter right now but what about we offer each other time? :)
Interests
I like to exchange stories with people, I may not be the most talkative person at every moment (partly due to me being a Gemini), but I will always have a pair of opened ears.
I've been beatboxing for almost a decade and it's always been my passion. Represented Malaysia in Singapore, Vietnam, and the World Beatbox Championship. It is my dream to be a vocal artist.
I enjoy all kinds of activities, sports, exploring, dancing like an idiot, anything really. :)
Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy all kinds of music, whether it's something with heavy bass, or some classic swing from 1920s, I'm always down with it.
(Check out Romanian techno and electro swing, something I've discovered recently that I fancy)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Being on the peak of Italian Alps, Dolomites.
Hitchiked 2500km through Russia in 5 days.
Watching the Aurora turning red from green.
Being on top of a 30+ floor crane on Christmas morning.
Slept in just about anywhere imaginable, in the woods, on a cliff, next to a gas station, in a toilet, sidewalks of a highway, and in front of a bank.
Hitchhiked to another country just to apply for a visa that could've been done online. (Did it online afterwards)
Busked in almost all of Europe. (Spain don't like buskers, period)
Bought a car and sold it off in India within 2 and a half weeks.
Traveled total of 33,000+km in a year through 34 countries.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could teach you how to cook Asian food, tell you stories and cultures of my country, joke about politics, and even teach you how to beatbox :D (it's really easy, I swear)
