About Me

Hola from sunny Australia - I'm a mature, happy, easy going and respectful malaysian chinese who loves to meet amazing people, see beautiful natural sites, admire cultural sights, immerse into unknown cultures and interact with beautiful animals. I love to laugh and go on spontaneous adventures.

Currently living my dream of traveling the world - I worked hard for 6 months, quit my job and booked a one way ticket to Malaysia. The rest was history!

*IMPORTANT: Please do NOT contact me if you have any sort of a romantic / dating interest of any sort. I am not looking for that sort of relationship.I am in a relationship. I am looking for genuine connections and friendships which can be lasting - a proper Couchsurfing exchange where you host me and show me your city and if/when you come to visit me in Australia, I can do the same for you.

If you talk or act inappropriately towards me in any way via the App, website or in person. I will report you. I am not here to tolerate people who misuse Couch surfing for dating/romance/sexual interests.

I've had some bad experiences and don't want to give up on Couchsurfing because I've met some WONDERFUL people here too...but if it continues, I will stop using it. It's just a shame that a minority have to ruin it for everyone else.

Random facts: I want to save the planet. Dogs are my weakness.

- If you offer me food - I will eat
- If you put on some music - I will dance
- If you ask me to go on an adventure - I will come
- If you put on a song I like - I will sing (it may hurt your ears)
- If you ask me to come on a hike, I will be there

I love a fine wine or beer but currently doing dry July!!!

If you ask me any question - I will answer (I am an open book)

I am also a good listener ;)

If you're a sweet tooth ~ let me make my crepes for you (warning: they are very fatty and unhealthy)

If you want to get to know me more, just ask or stalk me.

Please do NOT message me on Instagram either. We are connected via Couchsurfing for a reason.

Yes I love pandas :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet and connect with amazing local people and live like a local - I feel I will get so much more from a place this way.

I've done couchsurfing (both staying at people's places and hangout) and I must say - it is awesome :)

I've really enjoyed the interactions I've had with people. I love the CS community and how warm everyone is. I can't wait to share the same when I return back home to Melbourne (to show people the city and meet travelers alike)

One of the best things I've found on my travels is how much I learn about a person and their culture just from having a conversation with them.

Interests

I love nature, food, animals, culture, travel, dancing, writing, yoga, water - all the good and essential things in life. Coffee and Desserts are the best things in the world ♥️

I also write a blog and love taking pictures/videos. I'm a story teller 📝😉

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went to India for a big fat Indian wedding - wow, my first ever solo trip. I was sh*t scared but had the time of my life :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some basic Chinese, Australian slang and some great card games. I also have a little bit of knowledge about the Chinese/Malaysian and Australian culture.

I would love to learn and practice more Spanish, Portuguese or any language really.

My biggest passion in the world is food - I love sharing good food, drinks and stories with people :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

Free smiles and hi fives 😁😀

Great conversations and story exchanges

I can help with cooking ~ I cook amazing crepes :D

If you have cards, please let me show you my favourite card game

If you need help around the house or me to volunteer with any work, I'd be happy to!
