About Me

A thinking conversationalist always keen to embrace the cultures, customs, curios, culinaries and comedies of life.

On the cusp of setting up a social enterprise.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To hop about and embrace the many hospitable homes around the globe;
To conjure many a colourful itinerary for travellers popping by Singapore;
To banter with many a quirky or inspiring individual from continent to continent.

Interests

Backpacking;
Cooking and food-critiquing;
Tennis, running and long-distance walking;
Reading, writing and poetry (satire is most endeared);
