About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Open myself to the world of possibilities and learn about anything from this trip. I will like to see how this audacious trip will change me ;)

ABOUT ME

I just embarked on my ambition of travelling around the world, and I my greatest of all is to witness the crazy-awesomely beautiful aurora borealis!

I enjoy trying new things that improves myself as a person. That includes new people, new experiences, new hobbies, new food! believe everyone has a story to tell which I can learn from. I believe in the inherent good in people, and CS definitely warrants that.

As for religious views, I am a free-thinker (which I think is pretty cool), and I actually enjoy listening to stories from the different religions. I believe that all religion teaches good to people, similarly to my believes with the inherent good within anyone.

I just started actual-traveling (not touristing) and I really enjoy travelling alone, but of course I will love accompanies too, so I always look forward to meet new people who will love some new accompanies during their trip.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to see more, hear more, learn more, and enjoy diving into the unknown, trying the untried

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and meet new people whereby I encourage them to come to my little country, Singapore, where I could show them around! Unfortunately, I will not be able to return to the community by hosting, as my family and I stays in an apartment just enough for us..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

3 so far, fantastic, marvellous and fun!

I especially enjoyed staying with Richard, as he hosted many surfers together at the same time, which made meeting new people really easy, we went out and had lots of fun.. And, he was an exceptional host!

Interests

I partake in various of sports, but I spend lots of time in Ultimate Frisbee (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhUays2ehyI)

Other than sports, I'm easily interested in a lot of things, things that I look forward to making it happen one day
- backpacking [happening very soon]
- skydiving
- diving [yeah, i like things that you have to dive for, like dive into the unknown]
- cooking simple food, will improve myself to cook better food in the future!
- learning new stuff! I'm quite a curious fella!
- flying which I hope it does happens

Music, Movies, and Books

I like books that tells its readers a moral, same goes for movies! Otherwise, anything that cracks me up!

Music, I don't really like a certain genre of music. It's like this for me - 'I know I like it when I hear it'

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having serve two years in the Singapore Police Force, I may had deal with some assholes, had some adventures. However, I feel the good stories comes from the crimes and cases that happened for their own special reasons. It changed me a lot as a person, made me more open, had me seen more.

Began travelling alone, one of the best decision I had made in life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach:
- Ultimate frisbee!

share:
- my stories during my service in the police force for 2 years.
- my traveling stories, not many but enough to spark a conversation
- of course, Singapore!

I will like to learn:
- seriously, I'm quite sure I will be interested in anything new, and I don't really know a lot!
- languages, I will love to be multilingual one day!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my time with you. Forget about sightseeing, I rather spend time exchanging stories with new people.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, Netherlands, Philippines, Scotland, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom
