ABOUT ME

I am opened minded and positive Malaysian-Chinese. Born in Johor prefecture, later moved to Kuala Lumpur for 11 years after high school for college and works. Left for England for 2 years under working holiday visa. Was working in restaurant and hotel . Travelled a bit in England, Wales, Scotland, Spain, Italy, France, Czech Republic and Poland during my stay.
After England, I lived 1.5years in Singapore before being transfer to Japan until now.
Parents have taught us the joy of traveling and the passed on the passion on foods. Been traveling with parents since young. I love to stay with local instead of hotel in order to get to know deeper of the country or town that I am visiting.
