About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To share and encourage random kindness in life. Let's stop the vicious cycle.

ABOUT ME

"why not?" that is probably the phrase you will hear most from me. I am always curious over things I am not familiar with, and would love to try anything at least once. Life is too short so why not? Let's do it.

I am extremely impromptu and random, as long as I thought it is a good idea, I would not hesitate and proceed. Some people call me reckless and they might be right, I made a lot of silly decisions. But it doesn't change the fact that I am a happy go lucky person and acquired many good friends along the way, no regret!

Recently moved out from Dubai and back in Malaysia, and it's been 6 months and hey I am still exploring the world! I will spend every single penny for travel. Life is all about experiences, isn't it?

PHILOSOPHY

1. Every bad thing happens for a good reason. You will bounce even higher than your last peak after the trough!

2. I rather regret for the things I did than the things I didn't do. Life is a one way journey and if you miss it, you might have no second chance. Give your best and go with the flow, what if i fall? Laugh out loud and move on.

3. Give your heart a break and live in the moment. You have only one life to go so what are you waiting for?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Introduced by my best friend in Dubai and fell in love with this.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have great experience since my first couchsurfer! Thank to Couchsurfing I have met a lot of great people in my life and many of them becomes my close friends.

Couchsurfing is much more than just offering a Couch, it is also to offer, receive, and share memories and experience. If you want to take it to a more spiritual level, I would say it nourishes trust and unconditional kindness.

Many people asked me isn't it a risk to host strangers? I learn a phrase from a friend and it is my answer: "trust is a gift". Call me naive, but I choose to believe in good than bad.

Interests

Meeting new people from different culture. A good hangout with friends after work. A beer would definitely make the night better.. Or maybe 2..3.. 4?

Enjoy outdoor activities such as scuba diving,trekking,water park, skydiving, jet skii and etc. Also love cooking, musics, movies. Basically, I would love to try anything that I have never done before so if you are up for some adventure, I am always ready!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my life. So anything is fine. Can't really read book, but planning to write one.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dive with 2 whale sharks in East Malaysia side by side. Can you believe that they were friendly even though they were significantly larger than us? We definitely need to learn to respect other creatures just like they did.

Visited Nomad in Iran and had a few hours great time with the kids. One of the best moment in my life.

Did my first solo skydive in Sebastian,Florida. The moment i opened my parachute, the world become so quiet and the view was breath-taking. I was up there and asking myself, what do i stand for? I am just a tiny fellow in this world. I know that I will never look at the sky the same anymore.

Hot Air Balloon in Bagan Myanmar, overlooking more than 1000 pagodas and sunset are just breath-taking.

Teach, Learn, Share

Exchange opinions on things that we could not have cracked on our own. Sometimes, it is easier to discuss problem with someone that is completely out of your social circle. Thus you can get the most genuine and eye opening feedback. Been there, done it, it works. One more close friend in life. Tick.

I am a dreamer, might be unrealistic, but unbeatable. We all have one or two stories to share, don't we?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am very open-minded to everything, and would give any fun experiences a try. I remind myself everyday not to judge so surprise me with anything.. I promise you I can see the best in it, yet not compromising my values.
