Malaysian guy currently in Bulgaria! Plovdiv, to be exact. I am involved with music festivals in the summer and miscellaneous projects in the winter, and seeing if there is any way I can contribute to Plovdiv 2019 with my visual art: https://www.facebook.com/carmatic/videos/vb.502061196/468376351196/?type=3&theater
I have designed and built a new kind of wind turbine back in Malaysia, ask me about it if you are interested :) https://www.facebook.com/carmatic/videos/vb.502061196/10151751674371197/?type=3

In the summers, I work with my friends in western Europe on big music festivals. For example, I was responsible for wiring up all the LED's on this stage: https://www.facebook.com/psyempire/videos/1818909578397999/

Most recently, I was in Romania and I collaborated with my friends there to create a unique contemporary art performance. I was responsible for the electronics which enabled the dancer to control the sound with her movements: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLtBkx3mrgE

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet kind hearted people who recognize the inherent good in helping people in need of something as fundamental as a place to sleep for the night
But these encounters can also be rich experiences between people of different paths and with different stories to tell

Music, Movies, and Books

Music, mostly, as I'm not a movie or book person
Psychedelic trance, to be specific, generally between 136 and 142 bpm,nothing too commercial but nothing too dark either!
And before you ask, no I do not take any illicit substances despite my taste in music!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was in Kenya for the solar eclipse 2 years ago, and I started a new windmill project there... It's still ongoing and I will be happy to elaborate should you be interested :)

Teach, Learn, Share

OK so I don't really know what this part of my profile is supposed to be like, but I suppose that's where the 'learn ' part comes in? I'm a newbie to this couchsurfing thing after all
On the other hand, I am able to speak Malay to a good standard and I am able to teach you a phrase or two of this unique and interesting language

What I Can Share with Hosts

In Malaysia we have a culture of 'belanja', to spend money on behalf of good relationships between people... I do have a habit of imparting value, and valuable things in particular, upon those I cross paths with
But money isn't the only thing I like to share with others, I am able bodied and am able to assist with moderately heavy work and daily chores
I am also somewhat knowledgeable with matters pertaining to electrical engineering as part of my efforts in my wind turbine project, this is not a boastful assessment as there have been many times when I had to give an impromptu science class on order to explain the work I do
If you are lucky I might even cook for you!
