About Me

Having to choose between small talk and deep talk, I'd go for deep talk (such as discussions about the purpose of life, the cultural and individual differences among people and last but not least, about whether a hotdog is a sandwich or not). But if you prefer talking about the weather forecast or Kylie Jenner's lip gloss, I'm ready to accept the challenge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Couchsurfing. It's really an incredible platform. I have met so many wonderful people and it has made a huge impact on my life. So far I have surfed in eight countries (Malaysia, India, Azerbaijan, France, Switzerland, Italy, Hungary and Bangladesh) and have hosted people from ten countries (UK, China, South Korea, Pakistan, Germany, India, Indonesia, Ukraine, Netherlands and Bangladesh). I got to know about CS when I watched the TED talk by Tomislav Perko (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7vmHGAshi8). I was amazed to see that people travel the world in this way and it has ignited my desire to go out there and explore the world myself.
