Greetings!!

Hey, I'm farina, currently living in Penang, Malaysia. Born in 1992. Almost finishing my PhD study here (in construction materials) and planning to move to Germany and learning a language maybe circa 2020. I started solo travelling back in 2014 but only to Melaka, Malaysia but later with a couple of friends to Cambodia and Vietnam. In 2017 I started experiencing South East Asia (Laos, Thailand, Myanmar and India). My current life as a student limits me to did solo travelling but manage to be in Germany 2 times in 2018 and 2019. My love towards historical/ancient building, cities are one of the reasons why I started travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Funny story here, I created my account back in 2014 but never active but my ex-roommate bring me here again! Mainly I'm here for new friends to hang out. I love hearing about other people travel experiences don't matter it's good or bad. Or perhaps sharing mine too! (if you would like to hear)

Interests

Hmm, too many to listed out. Ancient building for sure! anything historical (i knew its boring) but not limited to that, basically I very much interest in everything???

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I love anything historic. Currently reading Atom by Pierce Bizony

Music: Depends on my mood or what I hear, you know some song can make u wanna listen to it again after 1st time hearing it. in that case, I love anything from Ed Sheeran to Electro.

Movies: Don't have any specific types. Not really watching a movie unless I've been invited by friends to watch with them and don't have any preference either. But I love watching funny series like big bang theory (wait, that's not a movie?!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can list amazing things that still in my wishlist (perhaps anything that can give me adrenaline rush) but one amazing thing I've done is Solo travelling in India (I can't) believed I survived that!) or ziplining in Vang Vieng!

Countries I’ve Visited

Cambodia, Germany, India, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Viet Nam
