About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Stop talking and start doing!

ABOUT ME

Travel and meet new friends along the journey. It is a journey of cross-cultural exchanges where I hope to meet with individuals of all walks of life, experience a sincere dialogue of hearts with them and perform voluntary community works along the way.

A photographer and video editor by profession and am passionate in helping others and constantly aim to capture and convey the message of love amongst the different types of people I encounter along the way. I love doodling. I consider this part of art. I love creating stuffs as I believe we are all made in the image of God.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am traveling around the world now and will be relying a lot on CS. I also told all my friends about CS and they are fascinated by the project.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a Korean girl before leaving for my world trip. I enjoyed bringing her around my city and she had a great fantastic time in Malaysia.

Michele a French lady in Dublin hosted me and my friend for 5 nights and we met with many other nice couchsurfers. I also met up with a few couchsurfers for drinks in different cities in Europe.

Simon in Vienna was the best 'tour guide' when he hosted me for four nights. We are good friends since the day we met in Dublin!

Philipp in Bregenz, Austria took me to the Alps and it was the best experience walking down the mountains! I also won the pot of money during our poker game with his friends..hehe

My CS experiences in the Baltic states and in Russia were really really great!! I met so many good friends (CS) and they were all really kind to me. Wish I can host them back in Malaysia

Couchsurfed in a few cities in China during my two months travel.Great time!!

I met several CSers in South Korea and we made good friends. Enjoyed my time in S.Korea tremendously!!!!!

Met three CSers in Russia!! Really really great time in St.Petersburg, Moscow and Yekaterinburg! Russians are extremely warm people!! Love 'em!

Met many Chinese CSers in China and we all became good friends.

Hosted travellers from Europe and Asia in my humble home. Anyone is welcomed to my home, hopefully when I'm not busy working!! ;)
