Hi, I'm Cynthia, a 23 year old college student, major in finance. I'm Malaysian and currently living in Malaysia, which made me a local. Haha. Just joking.
I'm curious, adventurous, active, friendly, brave, erm maybe not so talkative (haha), and a little bit of shy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My dream is to travel around the world as a backpacker.
First, I'm not rich thus i would need to find various solutions to persuade my dream and that's how i found couchsurfing.
In the other hand, I'm glad to help other to presuade their dream too. Well, in the future I mean. When I'm able to own a house and host someone else.
