Malaysian student doing a work and travel program in the states for 3 months. I'll be traveling from march till April around the west coast.

I would love to meet new people and exchange our culture. And I would love to give couch surfing a try. One hand to save some money. And one to really experience the local feel of each city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling around the states and hoping to meet some amazing people and exchange stories and experiences. And not to sugar coat anything. I'm also looking for cheap alternative for lodge. To spend more on food generally.

Interests

Woodworking is my main passion. I started woodworking by making and selling homemade Cajons. This was the start of my carpentry journey. With what started with just a single saw and hammer. Became a small back yard workshop of mainly handtools. I love the story behind every single piece of my homemade equipment. Made of mostly recycled materials collected from houses that are being teared down to schools that are undergoing renovations.
Someday soon, I hope to have my very own carpentry workshop which I can open to the public in the form of classes to ensure the love of creating, innovation, and woodworking is passed on.

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started my own wood working workshop in my back yard with 70% homemade tools

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a fairly competent cook to blow my own trumpet. We can definitely exchange some recipes and cooking tips.

If woodworking is a passion or is something you have interest in. I definitely would love to be able to share some tips and experience. Although I'm still just a very amateur woodworker.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am pretty good with household repairs. If I can fix it. I will try my best to.

Being Malaysian. I have a love for food. And if you would let me, I would love to cook some Malaysian food for you.
