Hey there, fellow travelers and adventurers!

My name is Sammy, and as a passionate designer and scuba diver based in Malaysia. I believe that the true essence of travel lies in the people we meet along the way. That's why I'm here, eager to connect with divers and creatives designers from all corners of the globe!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in Ireland close to 3 years, I miss Dublin so much!

Recently obtained Advance Open Water in June 2023.

5m free diving in Nusa Penida hoping to swim with Manta Rays but they ran away...

Back and forth to Bali, Perhentian & Tioman Islands solo trip, cause it soothes my heart and mind for the past few years.

Spent 1 month in Europe around south of UK & Spain, it was the best it of my life.

Jumped off a tall cliff in Krabi, Thailand

Stranded in Italy, slept at the bus station in Florence to catch another bus ride, been chased by a homeless along the way, & met awesome people in the middle of the streets including in Milan & Venice LOL.

Went down over 700 steps of Peguyangan Waterfalls, equivalent to 108-ish storey of a building and my legs were shaking and completely regret it yet feeling accomplished to witness a spectacular panoramic views.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach:
Malay culture and the language itself, perhaps some piano tutorials along with jam session and cook local goods!

Not to forget, any skilful design essentials especially social media, branding, graphics, posters, Interior designing and decorating.
