CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Born in Sabah, East Malaysia - in a small town surrounded by islands. Spent 17 years growing up in paradise, with the beach on my front door. Eventually finished college and was offered a place in a University in England to study law.

Have been in England for almost 10 years now - I love my job, it keeps me passionate about people. On the side, I am still learning how to walk the middle line between being an island girl and a lawyer... I love traveling, meeting people, culture, laughing, music, cooking, writing, discovering and endless other obscure things like Yoda and banana pancakes! I travel as much as I can, and when Im not, Im probably daydreaming about the next great escape =)

PHILOSOPHY

"The more you judge, the less you love"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking forward to showing people around my neck of the woods in England if they are around. And if you happen to be in Malaysia when I am, I'll be happy to show you around there too! Have travelled extensively in and around Malaysia so feel free to drop me a line if you would like any travel tips!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch surfed in Croatia for one night out of desperation as I was running out of money - it was an excellent experience and I met some amazing people! Couchsurfed in Bosnia, Mostar and Montenegro too, which was unforgettable. Have also hosted and fed people up. I think good food and great conversation completes any travel experience.
