Call me Michael! I go by my middle name.
Born in Indonesia, raised in Singapore, currently studying in London, England.
Love mountains and beaches 👍.

I started dancing when I was 17, in High School. Loved it so much. I do Hiphop, Contemporary, Tap, Pole.

Just picked up mountaineering recently. So Bouldering, Sport-climbing, a little trad and ice-climbing, and of course slacklining :)

Am a foodie that firmly believes good food doesn't have to be (and aren't usually) expensive. I'd rather spend on good local food than on tourist attractions. In fact I usually don't even visit them. Would love to cook up some dishes for you :)

I take naps. A lot. It can be everyday. Multiple times a day. Not that I'm lazy. I mix them up with long hours in the books to increase productivity #asian LOL
Two favourite words: Power Nap

I love fountain pens and do a bit of calligraphy. Still a newbie.

Living in London means I get loads of requests. So in your request please include your favourite food of all time (preferably from your motherland), so that I know you've actualy read my profile, and I got a new item on my food checklist. 😉 If not I'm probably gonna reject you. And please don't send me requests 6 months in advance, I haven't even planned what to eat for dinner tomorrow. And also, it would be nice if you could tell me more than just the fact that you like to travel, you're positive or open-minded. Lastly, I'm also mildly annoyed by the people who are on CS just for a free couch. It is an interaction. What is it about me that made you request to stay with me? Please do not treat my place as a 'place to crash on'. Have a little more respect for the community than that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Learning about the world solely through your own lens is a very myopic method. Why not pass the lens about and have a little chat.
