About Me

Being born and raised in Malaysia means that I speak 3 languages fluently. Previously a visual effects and 3D student, I am pursuing visual communication degree at a university in Singapore. I am currently in upstate New York, USA for my university exchange.

In 2012. I traveled alone to UK/Europe where I visited London, Paris, Brussels, Liege, Amsterdam, Brugge, Luxembourg, Frankfurt, Nuremberg, Munich and Kassel. It would not have been possible without my friends I met online and on couchsurfing.

I then went on to visit Taipei, Taiwan and Bangkok, Thailand at the end of the year.

I visited Europe again in 2013 where I visited the same countries but added Scotland and Spain.

In 2014 I visited Lisbon, Bologna and Rimini. I also visited Bangkok again.

Love meeting new people and seeing new things. I WILL come off as shy in the beginning but it doesn't take long for me to warm up to strangers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A great way to get to know locals and observe their daily lives. I also enjoy knowing people and their culture from all over the world.

I usually meet travelling surfers for a drink or events in Singapore. I also attend cs events in London and Paris when I'm not couchsurfing. I have also hosted some friends I met online that were visited Singapore or Malaysia.

Interests

In every city I've been, I will always find time to visit their museums and art galleries. I enjoy art and its history and evolution. I paint in my free time and work as a freelance graphic designer on top of school.
I watch a lot of movies and TV shows. I only enjoy comedic TV shows but will have the patience to watch a lot of movies if it manages to keep my attention in the first 15 minutes. I am running out of things to say here.
I like everything. I spend every break I have travelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driving through the scenic routes in Europe does things to a person.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Photoshop, Illustrator and various other computer softwares. I can paint and if I have time I can do your portrait if I've brought my paintstuff along.

I've been to most places in SouthEast Asia and West Europe so if you need advice or recommendations feel free to ask me! I travel a lot with my boyfriend Jérémie and between us we speak 4 languages sober.
