About Me

Malaysian guy living in Edinburgh. Went to Bristol in UK for university to do Mechanical Engineering. Didn't have a clue what I was doing, applied to a bunch of jobs and somehow landed in Edinburgh!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've heard great things about the people and culture on Couchsurfing, look forward to meeting locals at the places that I'll be travelling to.

Interests

  • cooking
  • live music
  • hiking
  • watching movies
  • playing basketball

Music, Movies, and Books

TV show The Office is everything.

Foo Fighters and Incubus are my two favourite bands.

Used to be mad about fantasy and horror books growing up, but lately have gravitated more towards non-fiction books e.g. philosophy or science (I promise I'm not pretentious in real life)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Co-hosted a radio show in university, where we talked about random things, played music we thought was fun, and did silly food and rap challenges.

What I Can Share with Hosts

"Knock knock"
"Who's there?"
"Police!"
"Police who?"
"Police let me in, I'm that couchsurfer who messaged you, also it's freaking cold outside..."

I can share some lame jokes and hopefully share some laughs as well. Also looking forward to having interesting conversations, and more than happy to exchange cultures and stories over some food and drinks.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Austria, Brunei Darussalam, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Italy, Netherlands, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Thailand, Vatican City State, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Malaysia, United Kingdom
