Hi, my name is Gar Kin. I've recently joined Couch Surfing because I want to meet like-minded people when I travel. It will be a joy for me to experience the local culture. I am travelling for the first time this year since the pandemic.

I currently work in marketing, and it is my first year in a job since I graduated with a master's in management.

I love trying new food! 😋 I will never forget a great food place. I also consider myself active and sporty, so I will always appreciate a nice walk, hike, cycle or run. I also love having friendly conversations and really getting to know people.

I choose not to drink alcohol, it makes my face go all red! 🥵 It's called asian flush. However I'm not against going to a bar with friends. I'll usually order a mocktail instead.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My favourite quote from full metal alchemist is: "We will change because we can change. I know it. We may be weak, but we just have to be, if not then we wouldn't have any reason to grow, to get strong. I know that it may seem futile to you, but it's not, because we are getting stronger with every step we take." - Trisha Elric
