About Me

I am an extremely warm kind person. I'm regarded as a person with high Emotional Intelligence (EQ). I would say, I'm gifted with an ability to connect to peoples heart and heal them from within just by listening & talking with empathy and kindness with no judgments what so ever.

If there's one thing I love the most, is to have an honest conversation over a coffee or a drink with another human being. I enjoy interacting with different cultured people around the world and learn and share so much about life and it's fulfillment.

I appreciate not being stuck in one life given that is all we have... so I believe in travelling the world, getting to know people as much and most of all to touch some souls so they'd remember me for life.

I am also a Foodie and I enjoy exploring different kinds of food and love sharing with others (I've also had some interesting experiences gone trying unknown food :-P)

I am also a great believer in giving back and contributing in every way I can back to the community.
"Sharing is caring" is something I live by.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This concept it too good to be true and it's the best treat for a traveler.

Ironically I just found out & join Oct 2018 and the only regret is why didn't I know it years before. Connecting with like-minded people in real life is like a dream come true and I am so excited to connect with millions of hearts and minds in my life time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've appreciated Eastern Philosophy and Marshal Arts since I was a child and Kung Fu was one of my favorites. Though I couldn't peruse it much as a child, in 2018 March, I got the privileged to visit the original Shaolin Temple in Dengfeng, Henan Province, China.

This temple is believed to have been founded in the 5th century CE, the Shaolin Temple is the main temple of the Shaolin school of Zen Buddhism to this day.

I got one full month of intensive training with the fellow Monks and I enjoyed every bit of it.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach : Not precisely teach, but would like to show some ways and means sailing through rough times in life and enjoying the moment with what we have.
Learn : love to learn languages such as Manderine, German, French and Italian
Share : Happy to share my time, stories and care along with food, drinks and joy

What I Can Share with Hosts

First and foremost, kindness and openness. I am also very generous and would love to share food, drinks and my experience surfing through life thus far and certainly my time to listen to the hosts who love to share there stories.
