I have been writing across various platforms under different pseudonyms: Tuan Caracol, Jangan Bersedih, Penulis Yang Tidak Dikenali, and most recently, Capybara Rocks in Copenhagen. In reality, each of these represents phases of my life journey. Now, at the age of 40, it's a particularly significant period, as even referenced in the Quran. So now, I want to take a moment to relax and enjoy the world. After all, they say life begins at 40, right?

Pengalaman hosting tetamu istimewa, Afifi.
Anti social as they called it, but wait, I was communicating with my guest. As a host for Couchsurfing I always open my door to myriads of guests from nooks and crannies of the world. This time I am hosting a special guest, Afifi. He is a Malaysian who studies Industrial Design at Rochester Institute of Technology in the USA. He is mute, but his life story surely will inspire others. The kids, Azkiya and Aufa saw me fingerspelling with him for the first time in excitement. Full of wonder. I learned fingerspell from my elder sister who also mute. It was really hard to keep on fingerspelling until we ended up communicating via Whatsapp Web. 1000 guests for 1000000 experiences.
