CURRENT MISSION

To restore faith in humanity

ABOUT ME

A person seeking to understand what makes us all so uniquely different and yet so similar deep down. =) Logical and pragmatic. I appreciate the fact that our Creator has made us all differently, and that accepting one another is a simple celebration of our differences. Introvert unless you get me started on a topic I'm passionate about. Love hearing people out.

PHILOSOPHY

Live so that each day carries no regrets of its own, reflect and be grateful because the unreflected life is not worth living =)

HOSTING
Please read this section and 'My Home' before requesting. Copy paste requests are fine but please at least address me by name and just a bit on why you would want to stay with me. Undirected broad requests will be declined simply. I probably won't have time to bring you around so I'd prefer mature guests who are able to be on their own.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet like-minded people, or absolutely different people... to learn and be educated, to be amazed, to learn to trust and be trusted... to make the transition from reciprocal giving to giving from the heart

Interests

Teach, Learn, Share

Share: My thoughts, the Malaysian culture, my hometown and her way of life, volunteering experiences, English, Malay, a lil bit of Chinese.

New to Penang so I'm probably not the best choice if you want to know more on history, culture, transport etc. But I know good hiking spots and am always up for an adventure.

Learn: Your culture, opinions and philosophy.

What I Can Share with Hosts

All of the above, plus a lasting friendship hopefully =)
