ABOUT ME

I am eternally curious and open-minded about new cultures and experiences and when I'm not busy studying the life cycle of a fly, I like drawing and D.I.Y-ing the shit of of everything. A good conversation makes me feel warm and fuzzy on the inside and I always have paper and a pen on hand.I love meeting people, especially when the circumstances are unexpected. Good friends and good food are a match made in heaven.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice.
Make sandwiches.
Laugh at yourself.
Drink tea.
Read more books.
Do what you love.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently working and travelling across America until April so my couch isn't available for now. I am however very much open to meeting people because that in itself is an adventure.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first venture into the realm of Couchsurfing so I've got me fingers crossed.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

The best way to experience anything unfamiliar is to completely immerse yourself in it. So leaving my home country in Malaysia to spend four months working and travelling across America.
