My name is Hayani, I like to travel and cook. I would like nothing better than to learn other peoples culture and cuisine, share and listen to stories and discover new ways of looking at the world.

Currently involved in the Malaysian Mental Health awareness scene, trying to create a more empathetic society for all humankind <3

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a student of humanities and I love seeing the world through different perceptions based on culture, religion, or any other zillion reasons that makes us different but similar! I would also like to see the places I visit through a locals' eyes.

If one wants to truly understand a place and its flaws and virtues, one should meet its people
