About Me

I am :

Optimistic
Independent or should i quote my friend's description : fiercely independent
I keep my word
I LOVE LOVE LOVE meeting people from all walks of life via different experience esp those with lots of unusual life experience.
Chatter box so rest assured there wont be any moment of awkward silence(Dont even get me started)

But i am also:

Crazy
Lack of common sense and any sense of direction
Workaholic
If i am into something, i will dive straight in. Whatever it takes. 💪💪
That gets me into trouble sometimes LOL
For instance, i had been lost in the wood twice.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had always wanted to couch surf back then when i was travelling in Europe. However, to live in house of a total stranger sounds like an exciting yet dangerous adventure to me.

After i moved back to Malaysia i moved into a bigger house with great environment and really friendly security guard. Thats when i gained my confident to host the backpackers. As a backpacker myself i know how budget limiting the journey could be, though backpackers wouldnt have any complain over this very own route they chose, i still hope to provide them with comfortable environment to rest at one point of their journey.

As a matter of fact, this idea was given by a hitch hiker that i picked up on my way back home. The excitement of meeting a lone soul wandering far from their hometown really spiced up the blatant life i have in Jitra. If i cant get to the world now, let the world come to me!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well. .. i think it is the moment when i decided i wont be pushed around no more and bullied into believing i worth less that those around me. It took me 10 years to be me now. This is the journey that i an VERY VERY proud of.

Teach, Learn, Share

First thing first, i am a Malaysian. Thats the first thing i wanna share: what a truly Malaysian is! LOL

I wish to learn the perspective of people from around the world and join them in their journey even for a brief moment to carve those instances into our mind, FOREVER!

What I Can Share with Hosts

All my silly experiences and how did i manage to get out of all of it alive!! Seriously ! You wouldnt believe how could i live through this life unscathed with me recklessly wading through this world carrying only faith and optimism

For instance, lost in the wood, twice , more than 6 hours. Or lost in Venice at night.
Or enjoyed the ancient paintings and fresco for the whole day long before i realise my stomach hurt so badly

And ask me about drugs, cats and food. I am sure there is one that clicks with ya there. XDXDXD

Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Poland, Singapore, Slovenia, Spain, Thailand, United Kingdom, Viet Nam
