About Me

I am an extremely outgoing person who enjoys meeting people and making new friends. I joined CS after I met a fellow surfer who my friend hosted and the stories he shared of his travels and experience via CS really inspired me to one day go on a journey of my own. A year later, I went on my first CS adventure and have been hooked ever since! I work for a shipping company in Kuala Lumpur and in my spare time I enjoy watching movies and reading. I am also a huge fan of rock music although i do enjoy other genres as well. I have been told that I am extremely funny although I have to admit that my brand of humour may not be everyone's cup of tea. Thankfully, I know how to filter myself 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all over the world. Some of my best experiences when travelling came thanks to the amazing people I met along the way. Also, I enjoy showing travellers my beautiful country, especially our vibrant culture which is best experienced through our food which showcases the best of our multiracial community in Malaysia.

Interests

I enjoy reading philosophy as well as stories if inspirational people. One of personal heroes is Carl Sagan whose book changed my perspective on life. At the risk of being cliche , I am in search of the meaning to life and truly believe that travelling and meeting people from all walks of life is one of the best ways to understand the nature of this unique blue planet we live in and all the wonders it holds.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share stories of my country which is something that I find always intrigues foreigners as Malaysia is one of the lesser known countries which is a shame considering our unique culture which has evolved into a melting pot of the three main races here. Always willing to help around with chores if need be. Would love to cook a Malaysian meal for my host as I do consider myself a pretty good cook :)
