About Me

I'm a weirdo, that's what my friends said. The bad egg of the family. The rebellious child. But i'm very honest in everything I do and everything I said, sometimes my feeling can be a little bit slow to response, for example if my cat died today, I probably will only cry tomorrow. I don't know I'm just crazy. I'm an atheist, but i do respect your religion. I see a person as a person, not black, white, yellow, khakis, gay, asexual or even if you are blue like Avatar creature, you are still a person for me. ******* I have moved to Edinburgh*****

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was born as a traveller, live as a traveller. Travelling is what I'm good at. I used to be a rich girl that only will stay at 4 / 5 star hotel, but then life changed or the god is playing around with me. I became broke ass spinster (yes I call myself spinster before anyone else call me that!). Then I started to travel and stayed in mix dorm hostel, it was just amazing to mix around with people. Someone I met in Phuket hostel recommended me to join couchsurfing, its cool to meet real traveller not just some typical tourist.

Interests

writing - yes I write alot and trying to get my work publish
reading - for some unknown reason, I love to read any books in regards with middle east history , culture.
running - I started to join marathon running earlier this year (to get over my exbf) , now running has become my addiction! I'm fat for asian girl type, but i can run!
cooking - yup I can cook, thai food , some malay food, not so authentic italian , most of my food is what we call it 'fusion'.
party - yeah party like there's no tomorrow!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love 80s & 90s music, especially classic rock, r&b, soul, & reggae. back than a song is still a song with a real person with damn good voice sang. The current new age music crap is just about the electronic sound of 'duch duch yeah yeah', fake plastic surgery pop star with big fake ass, or silly catchy lyric about overly high self esteem fat woman.

I dont have any specific favourite movie, its either i like it or hate it, or maybe I like it when I was 20 but probably really hate it right now.

I have so many collection of books but what I love the most are anything from Khaled Hossein and Jean Sasson, if never read any of their book, go get one. I mean it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Get out of my comfort zone, and became who I am today. When I was in school, I was a bully victim and I grew up I've decided I wont become that pathetic girl again. By the age of 25, I have over 20 people called me boss, up until now I believe that the real world is not for someone who always feel sorry for herself , the last thing I need in every situation is the sympathy from anyone.

When I was first started running for marathon, I came out with hashtag #fatgirlcanrun , yeah I just call myself fat so that no one can call me that. But then that hashtag inspire a lot of fat (the nice word is plus size) people around me to start running and be healthy!

Teach, Learn, Share

I dont really teach anything, but if anyone would like to learn anything about my culture / heritage / cuisine ( I'm half thai and half malay) , I'll be more than happy to teach.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I visit new place , I will share my culture, if you love reading I may give you one of my books.
