About Me

I'm a Geophysicist based in Aberdeen, Scotland. Malaysia have three main ethnicities, Malay, Chinese, and Indian. I am a Chinese. :) #malaysian

I completed my Bachelor and Master Degree in Petroleum Geoscience.

I live with my husband and daughter in Scotland. We have a border collie, named Pig.

I rarely use Couchsurfing recently, hence I don't pay for verification. Feel free to ask questions, if you are in doubt. Thanks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I asked for tips for traveling and my friend recommended me Couch surfing!

To find host when I'm going to travelling, and to host people around the world.

Interests

I learnt swimming when I was 10 years old.

After that, I was exposed to basketball and netball. I played for my school team.

When I was 16, I represented my school to join the co-curricular carnival of Sarawak state, which includes jungle trekking, mountain cycling, kayaking, flying fox, and so on.

In my bachelor-degree university (University Teknologi PETRONAS, Malaysia), I played ultimate frisbee for my UG university team.

During my degree study as Petroleum Geoscience, jungle trekking and hiking are essential for academic field-trip and I do enjoyed.
I would like to experience more outdoor sports if I encounter any chance.

I play sports, but I rarely watch sports. 😅

I sang in a choir and listened to classical music.

During my leisure time, if I prefer indoor, I would read. I am fond of coffee and doggie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I knew no one in Scotland, I just decided to come and pursue for my master degree! I am glad I did that!

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is a never ending learning process.

Be kind to people, as we all have our own adversity. Sometimes a little act of kindness will lighten up one's life.

I can share anything about Malaysia, the tropical country. And tips for travel in Malaysia/South East Asia too!

If you are interested in knowing the oil and gas, how we find and drill and produce it, I am the one.

I can teach you Mandarin and Malay too. I know 3 languages fluently in speaking and writing.

I am a keen learner! Teach me anything, and I love to learn!
