About Me

I think i look kinda fierce since i do not put a smile on my face , my friends say I have a resting bitch face duh but i consider myself a friendly human, i can talk about myself and love hearing people's life stories. I am more of a follower than a leader person but i can be an excellent leader and planner if there is no leader around. Same thing, i am more passive and quiet but i can be responsive and initiative in making friends if the persons are quiet and shy too. I can be a timid girl or courageous one depends on people around me. So i think i have flexible personalities depends on the kinds of poeple i mingle with! I love animals a lot so do not freak out if you see me running to hug one;) I love to leave positive social impacts so i am living the way i wish the world to be. lastly, i am not accepting guest at the moment since i am working in Singapore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Why am i on couchsurfing? I would love to meet wanderlusts around the world with different backgrounds and stories. I would love to be a host if possible to show travelers my beautiful country and how friendly Malaysian are :)

Interests

I enjoy nature a lot and that makes me fall in love with diving surfing and exploring places.
I prefer sight-seeing, world heritage visiting and blend into the local places to understand more about their cultures instead of shopping.
I like cooking and cooking with the ingredients i have so sometimes i do invent some dishes or dressings lol.
I love reading non-fiction, biography and autobiography during my free time, long boarding and currently learning to play music with ukulele!
I volunteer weekly during my university years and sometimes i go help out in animal shelters.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I shaved for a cause under the annual event Hair For Hope (Singapore) held to raise awareness for children cancer and raise fund for their foundation in 2014. Year 2014 was kind of my achievement unlocked year as i have got myself certified as PADI diver and fulfilled my wish of shaving for HairForHope, i also donated my 22inches hair to Recycle Your Hair, they used my hair to make wig for cancer patients.
