About Me

————— IMPORTANT —————
If you’re requesting for me to host you, please read my entire profile and please make sure you read “My Home” section before sending me a message.
——Those who do not read will be ignored ——

Hi! I’m Fis from sunny Singapore. On a mission to travel solo at least once a year. I work in the creative/design industry as a freelancer - I do Graphic Design and also Project Management. 👩🏻‍💻💻⌨️🖱️🎨🖌️👩🏻‍💼

I’m back on CS again after my last travel to Vietnam in Dec 2019 (before Covid). Now I’m planning travels again and hope to meet more people 😃

I’m recently happily married (met my husband 😍 on a volunteering trip in Vietnam) and he’s supportive of my solo travels! I LOVE being his wife - if you’re using CS like a dating app, please do NOT send me a message.

I’m open to meeting everyone and anyone from all different walks of life 😃 When travelling, I prefer to stay with female hosts, or couples and families. For hosting in Singapore, I only host women. Hope you understand, I do not host men.

I don’t smoke or drink alcohol - I just don't like the smell - I have no issues with anyone who does!

I prefer hanging out at a cafe or somewhere with good live acoustic music. Very recently started learning Reiki for self-healing. So if you’re a Reiki practitioner, I would love to meet and learn from you.

Read my references, or better yet, meet me and you’ll get to know me ☺️

P.S. As a Singaporean, the book/movie Crazy Rich Asians has “ruined” my identity when I travel 😅 🤦🏻‍♀️ If you have watched it, that’s NOT me. I’m probably just a *little bit* crazy, and working on being “rich” with experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting and making new friends during my travels, learn about people of different cultures and backgrounds.

Meeting the locals and getting to know a place/country through their normal everyday lives.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a night on a pontoon in the middle of The Great Barrier Reef. • Solo travel in Vietnam, backpacking for a month. • Booked flights spontaneously, twice! (example booked tonight to fly the next morning) • Solo travel to London and Iceland (first time seeing snow and also experienced Iceland’s biggest snow storm in years, being stuck indoors)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you the Malay language, or a uniquely Singaporean language “Sing-lish” 😏

I grew up poor or in a low-income household, in Singapore, where everything is known to be expensive. If you’re looking to travel cheaply in Singapore, guess who’s your new bestie? 🙆🏻‍♀️

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love long walks everywhere, anywhere just talking about anything or exchanging travel stories. Just keep walking and talking. Sometimes I bring local gifts from my home for the CS friends I meet on my travels.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, England, Hong Kong, Iceland, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, South Korea, Thailand, United States, Viet Nam
