CURRENT MISSION

Be better than who I was yesterday.
Infect other people with happiness.
Get lost through travelling and find myself in the process. ❤

ABOUT ME

No fuss, laid back and easy to get along with. On the outside and to strangers, I will appear to be the quiet, un-opinionated, simple girl. But to my closest friends, I am the trustworthy, vulnerable, open-minded and empathetic girl they would go to if they wish to share their vilest secrets and seek unbiased opinion.

At the moment, I have been bitten by the travel bug so I don't know what this phase in my life will be like, but for sure, I am already enjoying it!

I'm thinking of changing careers from being a nurse this year (2015) and will try and aim to move somewhere else in the world by 2016.

I feel I am at my best when I'm being surrounded by people that's why I want to get out more and explore over the horizons, which is currently just limited to the four corners of my bedroom. Hopefully, CS will give me that fulfilment of being able to travel and meet new friends at the same time. :)

PHILOSOPHY

-If there's a will, there's a way.
-Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be nice. Always.
-Actions have consequences. Deal with it.
-You have the freedom of choice. Choose well.
-Don't take life too seriously. You'll never get out of it alive anyway.
- Life is short. Eat desserts first. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently just renting so I won't be able to host but can tour anyone who needs a bit of sight seeing in Windsor :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, so good. Surfing couches at the moment. I have met some great hosts so far, so nothing but praises for all the hosts out there offering their couches to us strangers, except for one who abandoned me out of nowhere because I was taking too many photos of my journey apparently ! :)

Interests

I work in a hospital so most of the time, I do shifts that don't allow me the flexibility of routine days off. When I'm not working, I would either be found at a friend's house or in my room dancing. I like Zumba and dancing. I am currently in the process of improving my body, making it stronger and making sure i am the fittest i will ever be.I try and eat healthy, but because I LOVE food so much, it is difficult to resist offers of pigging out. I will literally eat anything offered to me. I love cooking for others but never for myself. I also like to play the guitar, especially on quiet winter nights just to chase away the silence.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everyday I get to wake up and survive is amazing :)

But I will always go back to that amazing morning I woke up to the sun rising, in a tent on the beach of Siquijor.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a nurse so I can probably teach you a thing or two about healthcare, Basic CPR and first aid? :))
