ABOUT ME

I am a Malaysian through and through and I know quite a bit about my hometown - history, culture, arts, people, tradition, religion - and have over the years played host to a lot of visiting friends and family.

Cosidering how much I love the island and would love to share as much as I could with anyone who's willing to learn, I've decided to be part of the CS community!

I have my own car and I can definitely take you around. However, due to the nature of my job, you might need to depend on public transport sometimes.

I live with my family, and I share a room with my 17 yr-old brother, who is just as good of a Penangite host! We have a couple of spare mattresses and a couch. We also have a very clean bathroom. Sometimes hosting becomes a full-fledged family affair as well.

So, if you want a first hand, exceptional experience of Penang, don't be afraid to hit me up.

PHILOSOPHY

Do unto others what you want done unto you and be the person you want to meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been hosting for a few years now and have met some interesting people throughout. I only hope I could've been as interesting to them as they have to me. In the meantime, I'm still working hard and saving money for travels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Looking forward to some in the near future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visit the birthplace of Jesus Christ, enter the tomb where Jesus resurrected, touched the place He was embalmed and to feel the spot He was crucified. Also, eating hummus on a daily basis in Jerusalem.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can be your walking guidebook to the sights, sounds and smells of Penang, which is the epitome of Malaysian hospitality.

Tell me your story, and I'll tell you mine.

What I Can Share with Hosts

FOOD! I'll tell you everything you need to know about Malaysian food, and of course, show you where to get them or how to eat them.

HISTORY! Growing up in Penang, it's hard not to know a thing or two about the beautiful island I call home. Before you know it, you'll pretty much be a local yourself.

HOME! What little space and comfort I have, I'm happy to share it with you too. Come and relax, take a break, pamper yourself from the weariness of your travels.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Israel, Jordan, Singapore
