About Me

Born and raised in Keningau, Sabah, I am the fourth child out of six siblings. I'm currently teaching at a vocational college in my hometown. I also write, cook, bake and photograph delicious food. Food has always been my passion. My culinary journey started as early as 11 years old, as I sometimes help my mother to cook for the family. After high school, I spent five good years pursuing my higher education in Culinary Arts field. Apart from satisfying the hunger, for me, cooking is an expression of art and skills which is most of the time I find it to be therapeutic to my soul. I got a huge crush on Thai cuisines, especially Tom Yam – I can eat Tom Yam every single day without complaining. I am also a dessert geek; the one that who eats dessert as first course. Cheese cake, carrot cake, red velvet and anything related to cheese are my favorites.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life is short. A small gesture of kindness and hospitality can leave a huge impact on someone's life and I believe that Couchsurfing is one of the best platforms for that reason.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to mostly R&B/soul, Rock, Vocal, Country and Alternative. I used to read fiction and romance novels but now I think that I prefer to read something that could enrich my knowledge and motivation. For example, the famous Chicken Soup for the Soul. Movies? I love comedy, adventure and fictions.
