About Me

I was born and raised in Malaysia and being in different countries throughout my past recent years have given me a desire to explore more of what the world has to offer.

My main hobbies are probably similar to many people out there which include yes, eating food, binge-watching TV shows, singing in the shower, swimming, and definitely travelling! I love every aspect of travelling, from planes, airports, to viewing architecture, dining local diners, bars, parks and thrilling adventures like theme parks or challenging hikes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being on exchange has also made me more socialable with other people. I am particularly interested in learning about new cultures and experiences, so the best thing to do that I guess, is to stay with a local!

In return, I would also wanna welcome others with open arms and the best hospitality I can offer (not much tbh but trying).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being on exchange is the best thing I've done really. To fly a total of 24 hours flight time with 2 transits all the way from Australia, to Malaysia and to the UK is a challenge! Further more I had to endure 10 hour waiting times in each transit point. So adding up, probably 50 hours journey. Yeap, I'm proud.

Also Scotland is one of the most beautiful places I've been and its people one of the friendliest. The food is amazing as well, albeit different from what I've been used to eating.
