About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see every part of the world outside Asia and immerse in the cultures so different from mine!

ABOUT ME

I'm friendly and outgoing. Love the company of people who have a sense of humour and have meaningful conversations. Very interested in cultural exchange.

PHILOSOPHY

There's always two sides to a coin. And I believe in looking at the positive side; all the time :)

We only live once so let's do everything we can to maximise it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On a train ride to Taipei, I met a friendly old couple. We were just chatting during the whole train ride and when we arrived in Taipei, they insisted to buy me lunch. Such kindness to a stranger in a foreign country is truly touching and renews my perspective of human kindness :) would definitely want to go back there one day.

This may be cliche but it did leave me awestruck. Was at Prague with a bunch of friends n we managed to visit St. Vitus cathedral in Prague castle. We just sat there and stared, so reluctant to leave such an impressive structure.

Teach: I can teach u how to speak Mandarin. It's a pretty useful language if you're ever in Asia :)

Share: Of course, the rich Malaysian culture
