Just a micro speck of dust in this vast universe.

Despite working as a writer, I find it hard to write about myself so here are a few of my favourite things: photography (recently got back into film photography), plants, food (I'm vegetarian), long walks (ideally not when it's 32°C — that’s the average temperature here in Singapore), contemporary art (even though I rarely understand it), sustainable initiatives, music, architecture and books of course.

I'm not the biggest party animal around and would usually prefer a nice chat over drinks than a crazy night out clubbing. Also, I can't dance so that could be a contributing factor.

Interests

Reading — I started the "50 books a year" challenge early this year and am at book #42 now. If you have any interesting reads to share, do recommend them to me please?

UPDATE: I FAILED. Only managed to complete 43 books in 2018 so my 2019 goal is 57 books. Wish me luck.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't cook but I'm good at washing dishes so I'm always happy to clean up after you, should you wish to cook up a storm

What I Can Share with Hosts

Share fun experiences together and attempt to ignore the fact that life is meaningless and happiness is fleeting...LOL.
