CURRENT MISSION

To discover more of the world in as many ways as I can

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small town (now city) called Ipoh in central West Malaysia. Ipoh is home to many mouth-watering local delicacies such as the OldTown 'white coffee', Hainanese chicken rice and many more! Once a rich tin mining town, Ipoh has since lost the glimmer of its glorious past but continues to retain it's charming personality through it's well preserved colonial influence. Ipoh is the birth place of hollywood actress Michelle Yeoh!

At 17, I was sent to Australia, Adelaide to be exact, to further my tertiary education. I have 3 half sisters in Australia and naturally my parents felt it was the best choice. 5 years later I graduated from University of Adelaide with a double degree in Economics and Politics. I took up postgraduate studies with University of Sydney thereafter.

I now live alone in Kuala Lumpur and I work as a corporate advisor. Parents have migrated abroad. Apart from the business meetings and dinners, I enjoy exploring new eateries with friends. I also enjoy watching movies albeit through DVD at home. I have interest in non-fiction books, engaging in interior design, architecture, discovering the paranormal/mystical and find Steve Jobs an inspiration. My mind almost never shuts itself down and I sleep an average of 6 hours a day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm offering myself to be a host to couch surfers. If time permits, I am happy to host activities too. I do not mind sharing some ideas and opinions to help improve the CS project.

Interests

I watch a lot of documentaries. NatGeo, Discovery and History channels are my favorites and it has given me the motivation to travel, meet people and to always discover something new.
