About Me

For the last 7 years, outdoor activities, especially hiking, has been my escape from the routine of a 9-to-6 desk job and the fast-paced city life. Now, it has become my bread and butter! From fully-guided day hikes to leisure camps as well as long expeditions that span across days, I’m specialised in organising adventure trips. I’ve led and guided a team of hikers for various expeditions in the mountains of Peninsular Malaysia. I’ve also taken up porter jobs to assist hikers to carry their load. Basically I'm a full-time mountain guide in Malaysia and totally done with the corporate world!
