I'm Chen, a 47 year old medical doctor specialising in aesthetics (Botox, lasers, weight loss, hair transplants etc). I stay with Errie and Fitri. Errie is 24 years old and sells skincare products online. Fitri is 25. He just started his new work as a masseur. He has a degree in film making.

I own 5 clinics in Kuala Lumpur called Premier Clinic (www.premier-clinic.com). I also had a restaurant and bar in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, East Malaysia called Tavern Kitchen and Bar, but it closed down several years ago.

I had my own newspaper column in The Star newspaper where I write about aesthetic medicine on a fortnightly basis. You can Google "Dr Chen Tai Ho" for my articles or search YouTube for my television interviews.

I'm fun, friendly and sociable. I like meeting new people. I'm into outdoor activities, especially extreme sports. I like trying new activities and going new places. My personality type is ESTP.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like meeting new people and making friends. People of any background, race, religion, LGBT are welcomed.

Interests

I'm into outdoor activities and extreme sports. I like trying new things like windsurfing, paragliding, sky diving etc.

I also enjoy acrylic painting and now am trying out tufting.

I find shopping, hanging around in cafes and museums boring.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pop music. Movies with unexpected endings such as Perfume or American Beauty. Used to read a lot of books when younger but nowadays read online articles and watching YouTube videos on war, politics, torture, prison, health, video game reviews and lately chess.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteer a lot in medical charities overseas such as in Iran, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Bangladesh and locally in Malaysia with NGOs including MERCY Malaysia, Hope International, PERTIWI and Rotaract Club. You can join me help give out free meals to the poor and homeless if you wish to.

I have personal training sessions with my gym trainer 3 times a week. You may join these sessions free of charge if you want.

What I Can Share with Hosts

You can attend and join my favourite activities such as gym with my personal trainer.
