About Me

I am a Malaysian Chinese, still trying to discover myself. Perhaps you could tell me more when we meet. From what I know, I am a very true Libra.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new friends and hang out, exchange ideas, learning about others' experiences.

Interests

I love the city for the convenience, modern architectures and facilities. Once I have got enough of that, I like to escape civilisation and embrace mother nature. I love the mountains, beaches and solitude.

I like travelling to experience the local culture, do/eat/hang out as the locals. Explore the place on foot, get lost in the city, drown in foreign languages, trying new food. I dislike tourist spots.

I do drink and party occasionally; I enjoy live music but prefers a smaller venue like a club or music cafe.

Photography is my passion & career, has been shooting fashion & commercial for the past 9 years; Now I would like to explore traveling and nature photography as a means to support my plan to be a nomadic traveller.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to acoustic, indie, bossa nova, house and trance. Live music gives me goosebumps; I appreciate good vocal and music. Currently tuned into Thai music.

I like action, sci-fi, and documentaries. Thai comedy romance is also one of my favourite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelled to Tibet and Mount Everest base Camp

Hiked to the summit of Mount Kinabalu (4,095m)

Get Open Water diving license and explored the underwater world. Dived at 30m and a night dive even though I am OW.

Camped at Thailand's national park. Slept under the stars.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach and practise English, Chinese (Mandarin & Cantonese) with you.

I can also teach you photography and photo editing.

I appreciate hosts dedicating their time and effort to take care of me, and I understand that CS is not a platform for freeloading. So, I am more than happy to split bills whenever we hangout and I will keep your place neat & clean.
