About Me

Hi! Nawal here from the hot, humid and awesome Malaysia! I live in Colorado Spring, CO with my hubs, girls and my baby furry Happy Feet the Cat. I rediscovered my passion in blogging and designing and working part time at my library. I think I'm a simple person. Then again who am I kidding???? I'm nowhere near minimalist though I'd like to think that way sometimes but I'm a person who love life with 950 things to do before I die! Yes. It's a lot but hey! you gotta live life to its fullest right?

I've worked with the King and Queen of Malaysia as the governess to the royal children, I've worked with the TV and Radio as a broadcast journalist cum presenter and announcer, I auditioned and casted Henry Golding when he was just a newbie with his strong Liverpudlian accent ( sorry Henry! JUST SO DAMN PROUD OF YOU!)..and the list goes on! Mannn! Life is just getting started ain't it?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So here I am on Couchsurfing! No brainer! I'm here to be inspired by you! I believe that every individual is a door to another world and knowing that fact excites me! I want to know your culture, your food, your things to do! Although the internet is created to make the world closer, we are actually apart more than ever! That is why Couchsurfing is my best bet to know another human being other than myself. ;)
