Hi! I'm Chen, from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

I usually only host once per month as it can be tiring to host. If you see that our calendar date is blocked out on the app, it means we already have a guest coming for that month. We'll prefer to host those with at least 10 reviews to reduce the chances of having difficult guests, as we had negative experiences with guests who are new on Couchsurfing.

I'm a 47 year old medical doctor specialising in aesthetics (Botox, lasers, weight loss, hair transplants etc).

I stay with Errie and Fitri. Errie is 25 years old and sells skincare products online. Fitri is 26. He works as a massage therapist. He has a degree in film making. We welcome straight/LGBT men and women/ couples to our home.

I own 5 clinics in Kuala Lumpur called Premier Clinic (www.premier-clinic.com). I also had a restaurant and bar in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, East Malaysia called Tavern Kitchen and Bar, but it closed down several years ago.

I had my own newspaper column in The Star newspaper where I write about aesthetic medicine on a fortnightly basis. You can Google "Dr Chen Tai Ho" for my articles or search YouTube for my television interviews.

I like meeting new people. I'm into outdoor activities, especially extreme sports. I like trying new activities and going new places.

My personality type is ESTP.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like meeting new people and making friends. People of any background, race, religion, LGBT are welcomed.

Interests

I'm into outdoor activities and extreme sports. I like trying new things like windsurfing, paragliding, sky diving etc.

I also enjoy acrylic painting, tufting, playing the music keyboard and doing any arts and crafts. I enjoy creating AI photos and videos too.

I find shopping, sitting in cafes and museums boring.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies with unexpected endings such as Perfume or American Beauty. Used to read a lot of books when younger but nowadays read online articles and watching YouTube videos on catfishing scams, leftover women in China, China's economic downfall due to tariff war with Trump, politics, torture and prison life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I volunteer a lot in medical charities overseas such as in Iran, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Bangladesh and locally in Malaysia with NGOs including MERCY Malaysia, Hope International, PERTIWI and Rotaract Club.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play the music keyboard and enjoy teaching friends how to play songs.

What I Can Share with Hosts

You can join my favourite activities such as attending painting classes, cycling, eating local food at the eateries or playing the music keyboard. I'll teach you!

We can visit an old folks home in Ampang to say hi to the elderly Muslim ladies residing there. They appreciate having visitors.
