About Me

I am currently a 4th year undergraduate student doing an internship in Den Haag with NN Re. Most of my day is in the office. I spend my free time rock climbing and keep myself fit and healthy. I also like to eat home cook food.

Ever since I started rock climbing, I have been wanting to meet rock climber around the world and also go out into the nature, and I believe couchsurfing will help me achieve this.

A short history:
Grew up in Malaysia (until 12)
Lived in Singapore (12 until 18)
Lived in Canada (18 until now)

When travelling, I like to involve myself with the city event, instead of just going to a landmark and take some photos. For example, biking around the city seeing the people or spending an hour in a local coffee shop.

P.S: there is a sync error with couchsurf and my facebook profile, I am 22yr old.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe it is a better way of getting to know a new place especially when I don't get to spend much time in the city/town/place. I hope the host will be able to quickly point out the thing that shouldn't be missed out. Most importantly, it is nice to have a person to talk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stayed in Shaolin Temple for a month to train with the monks.

Right now, I am trying 7a boulder routes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Always happy to share my climbing experience (I have only been climbing for 2 months). Exchange mathematical/finance knowledge.

I think my experience growing up away from home (I left home when I was 12) is pretty unique.
