I am a filmmaker and content producer who grew up in Malaysia, China, the US, London, and I recently moved to Berlin. Check my website out at www.miholynsoon.com

I would describe myself as a very inquisitive person, I easily get obsessed and passionate with different things and wish I had nine lives to do all the things I want to do, which is why I want to pursue a freelance career for now. In another life, Id be a art activist, culinary historian, or psychotherapist.

I dislike having superficial conversations, but up for a laugh all the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to expand my social network whenever Im in a new place where the social network doesnt feel quite as sufficient enough!
