Hey, my name is Danny and I am currently reside in Malaysia.

Things I always hear from people after we mingle along:
1. I look older than my age
2. I don't look friendly (first impression)
3. I look Stern

Honestly, on first glance, I might not give people the best first impression. It is kinda awkward for me to smile in photo as well due to my sense of insecurities / introverted personality, and I am really working on that.

People always say I'm a good listener which might due to my genuine interest in listening to different stories. Meeting people can be thrilling because I'm more of an introvert and doesn't feel too comfortable in groups. So yay!

I'm also very very curious. Unleash my inner extrovert and I can PARTY HARD.

INFJ if you wonder.

During backpacking, I prefer to eat like locals, travel without itinerary, making conversation with limited filtering. Love mountains/nature/modern architecture

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe I share the same reason of why many CSers gather, to experience, learn, make new friends. I've personally experienced luxury travel and backpacking myself and I think I'm close to finding the meaning of travelling. CS-ing helps a lot in the process.

I have started CS-ing in May 2018, pardon me if I'm inexperienced in giving travel advise or ask a lot of questions (CURIOUS) while travelling.
