Overview
About Me
Born in Malaysia and raised in Hong Kong, now living in Johannesburg! I studied interior architecture in Providence, Rhode Island with Rhode Island School of Design. I am a massive city girl, anything fast paced is my natural environment. Though, I do love nature and what I manage to catch a glimpse of once in a while. I cannot stand the cold, even though i am forced to, I will still complain about it. I am from the equator after all. I am willing and love to try absolutely everything and experience new things. If you love traveling, I will love you too.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I was referred from a friend about couchsurfing and he was a very active member of this community, and told me to try it out.
Loving every bit of it!
Interests
Hiking puts me in the zone. I also love cooking for people, whether or not I make a great meal, it is up to your judgment.

Teach, Learn, Share
I am enthusiastic and easy going. Love hearing and seeing places through a local's eye, and capture a place with true authenticity. I have traveled all over Asia and am willing to teach anyone Chinese or Cantonese, if you are interested in learning. I also, as you can imagine, die for architecture, so if you have a deep unconditional love for architects, we can talk for ages.
