About Me

I am a student from Malaysia who is currently participating in the work & travel program in USA with 2 of my uni buddies (Chris & Sam, see their CS & FB profile below!).

Anyway, we are given grace period of 1 month to travel after the program (yay!) We are gonna fully utilise the 1 month period to travel around USA!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hotels are nice but we hope to couchsurf and meet different people throughout our 1 month of travelling ;) It would make our journey much more interesting and fun!
I like it when I can mingle with the local and see the cities through their eyes, it makes me feel less like a tourist and more like a traveller =)
And of course, we can save lots of money doing so! =DDD

Interests

[1] Piano - Late beginner. Just started 3 years ago and I've never hate my finger so much until I started playing piano. But I really love the sound of piano, I get emotional when I listen to beautiful pieces =) [2]Yoga - "A good man makes you feel Strong, Sexy, and Able to take on the world. Oh wait, sorry, that's exercise. Exercise does that." and yes! That's exactly how I feel about yoga =) [3]And of course, travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books - It is a shame to say that I am still trying to pick up reading as hobby. I read, but I'm stuck with love novels all the time, I wish I can widen my reading scope =) Any recommendation? hehe

Music - I love listening to all kind of music, pop, r&b, jazz, edm, alternatives, classical instrumental and even oldies! But kinda gravitate towards the slow and relaxing ones. I also like listening to song covers/ piano covers of pop song on Youtube =)

Movie - Again, sucker for love story lol. I'm light opinionated when it comes to movie, every movie is 'ok' or even 'good' for me. The only genre of movie I really really avoid/ hate/ afraid is thriller and horror (I will have nightmares!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taking part in USA work & travel and stepping out from my comfort zone is by far the most amazing things I have ever done, cant wait for more amazing stuff to happen! =D

Teach, Learn, Share

Being very fluent in 4 languages, I can always teach you a foreign language that you might not know! We can start with bad languages, it is the fastest way to learn lol lol

What I Can Share with Hosts

My culture & experience!
I can whip up a local cuisine in your kitchen if you don't mind me making a lil mess (i will clean it!) and if I have the resources =P ps. Malaysia is really really REALLY well-known for the delicious food we have. Malaysians live to eat!

Countries I’ve Visited
