How frequently do you travel and<br />

where have you gone so far?<br />

I’ve travelled all around Malaysia for my Dansa project. I have also been<br />

to places like Macau, Taiwan, Thailand, Japan and Australia. But at the<br />

moment, I’m not travelling much.<br />

Experience<br />

Besides Malaysia, where else do you<br />

consider home?<br />

Australia. Partly because my mom is Australian<br />

and as I have studied in Perth, I have considered<br />

the place as my home.<br />

which particular<br />

destinations Have you<br />

travelled to that you want<br />

to revisit again?<br />

The country that I would love to revisit at some<br />

point is London. I just love the vibe there. The<br />

place has vibrant performing arts shows, theatres<br />

and art galleries. I also would love to go to Paris<br />

and Taiwan again. Taiwan is a beautiful country<br />

and the people there are generally polite.<br />

What services and<br />

facilities do you<br />

find most appealing<br />

at KLIA and klia2<br />

and what is your<br />

pre-boarding habit?<br />

When it comes to facilities, they are<br />

definitely the places to eat and visit.<br />

I must say. I usually try to check-in<br />

as early as I can when I’m at the airport. I will then browse<br />

through the local news agent or bookshops to pick up<br />

something to read (if I haven’t already brought something<br />

with me); either a magazine or a book. Then, I’ll make my<br />

way to the boarding gates and wait for the flight.<br />

What do you love most about<br />

travelling and what has<br />

globetrotting taught you?<br />

What I love most about travelling is that you get to see a<br />

totally different way of living in different places. It opens up<br />

your mind as to what’s out there in the world. And when you<br />

travel, you learn a lot about things that you don’t necessarily<br />

pick up from books.<br />

Which country do you really want<br />

to visit in the near future?<br />

~<br />

I would love to go to Russia at some point.<br />
