ABOUT ME

I grow up in a multi-cultural environment, a unique situation in Malaysia. This background make me more interested in others culture and sincerely appreciate the differences between people. I've been staying in Europe for almost a year, Taiwan for 5 years, New Zealand for 2 months, and Japan recently. I enjoy traveling as much as sharing my experiences. I know what u need as a backpackers, and I am willing to offer as much as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

You have a dream you have to protect it. -- from The Pursuit of Happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was so touch when being treated very well by other couchsurfers in New Zealand. And inspired by the spirit of sharing to make the world better.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was amazing. It was at Edinburgh, which eventually lead me to a tree house. After that, I had some great time in Dunedin with the local couchsurfers. I haven't hosted anybody yet, but I'm really look forward to.

Interests

I have a wide range of hobbies (but not specialize in any). I do sport like triathlon, hiking, cycling, volleyball... I enjoy reading and watching movies. I care about the Sustainable Development topic a lot, which is my major study now.
