About Me

NOTE: Be sure to read my “Home” section thoroughly and indicate the KEY WORD in your request before sending me one. Requests without the word will be declined without notice.

-------ABOUT ME-------
When I am not backpacking, I am busy analyzing figures as a Corporate Financier in one of the big four accounting firms, stuffing myself with some delicious food and reading up on business related knowledge. You could say I'm a numbers girl and I'm proud of it.

I can be introverted, no-nonsense and forthcoming. But when I open up to you, I become this witty (I'd like to think so) yet goofy girl with a very silly sense of humour who laughs at everything. You've been warned. ;)

"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go and do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." - Howard Thurman

-------WHY I TRAVEL-------
My passion for travelling really started only in 2014, where I felt I had no direction in my life and needed a getaway to get things sorted out. I started to do backpacking to various countries that weren't all that travelled by people and save for Antarctica, I met so many people from all the continents on earth.

Once I came back from the trips, people around me started to notice a huge positive change in me. I became a more positive, confident person with a purpose in life. This is the power of travelling. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect and make meaningful friendships with people from around the world, have lovely conversations over a meal, enjoy attractions and nature, and gain new insights from each other.

I'm for occasional partying too so hit me up if you would like to visit a club during our time together.
