Salut! I am Carlson, born and raised in Penang, an island in North Malaysia. 🐬
Staying in Petaling Jaya (just beside Kuala Lumpur) after graduated from my study here. 🏡

Occasionally travel to other countries and stay with the locals to experience the diversity of the cultures. From walking down every streets and alleys to stepping in different religion places of worship, to exploring all kind of food, to being amazed by local sceneries, to making friends with different ages, religions, races and backgrounds! Collecting all kind of stories and sharing the same laughter! 🚃🚅🚂🚀🚁🚤🚶🚴

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

My friend, Nee, told me about this app, and I tried it for my very first solo trip to Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 and since then I love this platform so so much! Helping people without asking something in return, we just pay forward to next person we meet, CouchSurfing is like a whole new, greater, happier world. 😄

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I have traveled alone for the first time to Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺 when I was 22. I went there only for a week as I am using my savings from scholarship. I met a lot of new friends from different countries. This travel means a lot to me because this is the first time I leave my super conservative comfort zone, I learn a lot of things, one of the most precious values I learnt is that "Courage is the only thing left when you have nothing else." 🌟

Another story, which I really want to share here is my friendship with 2 Vietnamese 🇻🇳 friends through Couchsurfing. Phu and Vy, we met in 2016 through hang-out feature in Couchsurfing on the first time I went to Vietnam, since then we become good friends although we have a little bit of language barrier. I went to Vietnam another 2 times, one in 2017 when I did my solo trip again just to visit them, another one in 2019 when Phu invited me to his wedding. They came to Malaysia to visit me for a couple of times too. I never think of having a friendship this close with foreigners few years ago!
My story is being shared in CouchSurfing Instagram too! 📷 https://www.instagram.com/p/BwWil7Pll08/ ❤
