About me:
Born and grew up in a small town in Kedah, northern Malaysia called Sungai Petani (SP) where I spent my childhood and finished my high school.
I’m very much independent since I’m 18, easy going and open minded. I’m lacto-ovo vegetarian since 17.09.2001 (23 years +)

My hometown is also closer to Penang, about 45min drive. Penang island is famous in Malaysia, a lot of them love Penang for their UNESCO World Heritage Site and the foods as well.

My PAST:
After high school, I started work in Singapore for first 4 years from 2006 till 2010 and then left Singapore for further my studies in Malaysia. Studied at Nilai, a town closer to KLIA airport & PJ and worked in Kuala Lumpur from 2012 till 2015.

My CURRENT:
End 2015, I moved to Johor Bahru, JB, when I got job in Singapore. JB is the southern gateway to Malaysia and accessible to Singapore by road. Hence I planned commute daily from JB to Singapore for work. That’s my current story again, after stayed in Singapore for 3 years during COVID.

My INTERESTS:
Open to new experiences.
Love outdoor activities like hiking, nature walk; cafe hunt, light cooking, learn new cultures/experiences and mobile photography. Also, can be said I’m an orophile!

I can host in JB, Malaysia if I’m available or not too busy.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

A great platform to make some new friends, learn/share ideas, travel experiences and cultures.
Sometimes can be your friendly guide when I’m available. I’m happy to drive you around nearby places and sometimes even far if time permits.
As well, I can be your friendly host in JB, a city closer to Singapore.
