About Me

Spunky little one!

Yogi, dancer, and avid learner. I work in tech sales.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Visiting a foreign country can be scary and so it would be wonderful to make a new friend along the way! I love learning about different individuals, switching cultures, and stories! One thing that I would reaaally enjoy would be to spend a day with someone's grandma with heavy tradition/culture and learn their history/recipes. That'd be dope.

I really enjoy showing people around my country; actually curated a whole list of about 1k restaurants/bars/cafes/bistros/bakeries/dessert places to take people.

I’ve been hosted a couple of times and funnily enough, I felt safer than I was at home. Tells you a lot about my experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The Singaporean culture! Learn our colloquial language, Singlish, and dazzle or confuse people. Up to you. I can also cook some simple local food for you to try if ingredients can be found! I’ve also been dancing my whole life, so if you’re into social dancing, I would love to share that with you.
