About Me

Hi guys! I am living in Johor Bahru (JB).
I don't live in Singapore.

I can accommodate one person at one time. The bus stop to Singapore is around 5 minutes walking distance from my place.

CURRENT MISSION

To live a simple life

ABOUT ME

I am a easy-going and a friendly person. I love travelling around and curious about everything. I love reading all kinds of books, out of which my favorite are literature (classic and contemporary) and auto-biography. Thanks to translations, I could read books from different countries. I like to make friends around the world. And, I love animals (visiting zoo/sanctuary is a must to different coutries with different climates). And, I once dreamt to be an archeologist!

PHILOSOPHY

This world is a place of love. And because of love, people draw together. And, when we are together, life becomes happy! I would to travel around the world - to see more and to know more friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to get to know people from different nations, and to hear their stories, and to tell them the stories back at home. And, I would like to build up friendships from far far far land. Confucius once said "It is a happy occasion when a friend from far land comes to visit". And, I do like this saying! Friendships forever! Couchsurfing is a very good platform to meet people from different cultures and to build friendship like never before. Try to imagine stepping into a stranger's house,or to allow a stranger to come into your house? So, we are talking about opened hearts! CS folks are the friendliest people on earth!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed in five couch surfers' homes in Bali, and all of them were very warmed and friendly!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

attended a church service in Bali.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Mandarin language very well, and I love teaching! Well, I know also Malay (Malaysia and Indonesia) Cantonese (Hong Kong), and I don't mind to share. I know some music basics. I am learning French. I think it would be fun if we could cook dishes from different cultures to understand better the type of food we eat everyday.
