About Me

I am an Australian-Malaysian who just returned to KL after living in Australia & Spain for the past six years.

Its always hard to describe yourself, but I would like to think of myself as an adventure and thrill seeker. I thrive in new experiences so I am constantly on the lookout for things to try and people to meet. I am the type of person that would be super excited about exploring new places, be it tourist attractions, nightlife, restaurants, extreme sports, you name it!

I love to appreciate nature and just let my mind wander through long nature walks. Nature helps me relax, the way yoga does. I have always lived near the beach, in Coogee Beach in Sydney and in Barceloneta in Barcelona. I find it hard to be away from the beach. Water sports, especially kayaking is my absolute favourite!

I'm a pretty easygoing and chilled person. When life gives me lemons, I make lemonades :)

I dabble in a bit of travel blogging. Do check it out at www.theexploringengineer.com

PHILOSOPHY

"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"
Its a Japanese ancient proverb that really pushes me to take risks when I become too comfortable in my comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I find cultures very interesting because it helps me understand the world better. Couchsurfing will allow me to learn new cultures, meet people of different world viewpoints and explore the endless possibilities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteered in a Women's Empowerment Centre in the deserts of India and it was a life-changing experience. It was eye-opening to live, breathe and experience the Indian lifestyle by living with a host family.

Teach, Learn, Share

Lets teach each other new languages, I would love to practice my Spanish. I can probably share some of my cooking skills too. Also most importantly, I would love to share with you my desire to change this world into a better place.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My views of the world and my passion for living life. I want to spread good vibes to the world :) I truly believe that happiness is each person's right and I'm trying to do that, one person at a time.
