ABOUT ME

I am an avid traveler and try to make several small trips and one or two major trip throughout the year.

PHILOSOPHY

One backpack, a passport and an unknown destination.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I rent with my friends and I live in Kuala Lumpur, not entirely in the city center but close enough to get around. The living room is mine since my room is very small next to the kitchen. Will get a couch for whoever interested to crash anytime. I go to work from 7.30am and get home around 8pm plus so weekdays isn't much helpful if you want me to get you around. However, weekend is a good time usually, unless I fly somewhere else. My housemates and I were exchange students to the USA in 2007. We love traveling and we love having people in our place so we are good to host when the time is right. I can bring you around everywhere you want to go see, look and experience - the best of the best in Malaysia. If I can't host you, I am good to give you simple guide over lunch or meal.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted Craig Antweiler for couple of days in December 2007. I've crashed Mustafa Kamal's crib twice todate, and most recently hosted Lena Mallmann in 2014.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy most Netflix comedy and drama; House of Cards, Rick & Morty, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, The Good Place and Grace & Frankie.

Up for scrumptious food bites like char kuey teow, nasi kandar and also great Tex-Mex food and classic American hamburgers. My favorite book is Catcher In The Rye and most writings by Paulo Coelho.

I dig all kind of music including classical and rock. Coldplay, Tiesto or Panic! at The Disco are fun tunes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've entered The Chamber in The Great Pyramid in Giza (now closed to the public,) in Egypt and performed high school musical Guys & Dolls in USA during student exchange experience in 2007. Am more pre-occupied with work and most weekend short travel happens around Asia.

I was an active volunteer for AFS (American Field Service) and used to help out with Random
Alphabets flash mob around Klang Valley.
