About Me

I'm a Malaysian residing and working in Singapore, working as professional in banking industry. I love traveling. Just like most people, I wish to travel to as many places as possible, to see new things, experience unique cultures, sample local food, and appreciate the wonder of human achievements and Mother Nature. Traveling got me into photography, and photography makes me want to travel more!

I can meet up in Singapore, and occasionally in Malaysia as I do go back to Kuala Lumpur once a month.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here primarily because I want to have some interactions with local people, to understand more about local cultures and their livelihood from firsthand experience rather than just reading from Internet, which I think will be far more enriching than just snap some photos and go. But of course, I still want to know where are the best places to take photos that best represent the place I'm in. :D

By the way, I'm not looking for free accommodation, I think that's too much for me to intrude into another person's privacy.
