Hi I'm Chloe! I just graduated from university 2 years ago and I'm currently working as a journalist. Being a journalist is really an exciting job as I get to see different things and meet different people everyday.

Apart from loving my job, I also love animals, especially dogs! I personally have a big mongrel at home and his name is Toby. I adopted him last year from a shelter. I believe rather than buying a puppy, adopting an abandoned dog helps to create a more positive impact to the dog's life and the community.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just like you, I like to travel around the world and immerse myself in different cultures. It's really amazing to meet and mingle with people with different backgrounds. Couchsurfing is thus a great platform for me to get to interact with the locals! In the meantime, it also helps me to save more money so that I can travel longer and meet more fun people!

Interests

I love Japan and I'm a big fan of the Japanese culture. I once lived in Japan Osaka for 6 moths during my university exchange. It was one of the best time of my life. Till now I'm still learning Japanese. Language always comes in handy whenever I go back to Japan. :)

Apart from that, I'm active in theatre in Singapore. I'm in a youth theatre group and our aim is to raise certain social issues with the help of theatre, and engage the community to discuss those issues.

Music, Movies, and Books

i Really don't have any favorites as there are so many nice movies, music and books out there! I love anything that is thought provoking and insightful. If the movies or books come with a twist in plot, that will be very intriguing for me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did sky diving last year in Sydney! It was really one of the most exhilarating moments in my life!

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you are a eager learner of new languages, I can teach you Chinese, Japanese and Cantonese (Yue) . If you are already learning these languages, that's even better as I can help to practice them together with you! I do need some practice in Japanese too!
