Hi there! I am Dina from Singapore! (Insta @dinamalyana) I live in France with my husband, Alex, and we both loveee to travel.

I'm not sure where to begin writing about myself, but I'll try. I am a friendly, easy-going, fun-loving person. Travelling is a huge passion of mine, and I hope to see more of the world one step at a time. I'm a little shy but I love meeting new people.

For me, travel is less about the bucket-list sights and the number of stamps on my passport; it's truly about the interactions I make along the way. The thing I cherish most are the memories I've made with strangers-turned-friends. I may forget many things, but I'll never forget the feelings that accompany these memories.

Connecting with the world is what I live for. (And good food!!!)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Like you, I'm on Couchsurfing to make new friends and experience life as a local when I travel. The first time I really used CS as a guest was in Iran and it was absolutely incredible. I met so many kind people and the hospitality I received was overwhelming. I also love to use CS for meet-ups because it's always good to meet locals everywhere I go.

I have never hosted anyone in my home because I previously lived in an apartment in Singapore with my parents and five siblings. But I've recently bought a little house in France with Alex. We did the renovations mostly ourselves and we'd love to start hosting when we've settled down after our travels.
