About Me

I have such cliche statement to make but it's true. I'm friendly. I think, I am fun to be around.
I am super loud. My laughter is infectious. Haha.

I love too keep active and enjoy training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and playing football.
I also enjoy stand up comedy, gigs and concerts. I am probably traveling to do any one of the abovementioned.

I’ve recently found a joy in cooking. I find it therapeutic. I may not be a good cook but I’m very happy to learn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's an interesting way to experience local cultures when I'm on this. It’s an interesting way for surfers to experience my hometown too.

Interests

I have been training BJJ for about 7 years now. I am a blue belt under Marcos Escobar (MEBJJA). I compete now and then. I love it so much.
I also play for the Malaysian Bar Ladies Soccer Team. It's safe to say that I love team sports. The friendship that develops from it is priceless.

I love going to gigs and concerts cause the energy that I get, I cannot explain. Same goes to standup comedy.

Music, Movies, and Books

I generally listen to Rock / Alternative Rock but I do like music in general. Especially live music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At some point in my 20s, I realised that I need to do something other than a corporate job, so I left legal practice and became a radio announcer. I also had a bi-weekly column on album reviews. It was probably the most exciting time of my life. I really enjoyed the time on radio and glad that I took that break.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach basic fundamentals of grappling.

I would love to learn how to cook local cuisine or local comfort food.

I can share my legal knowledge. Haha. That’s if you need. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My laughter and my stories. :)
