Overview
About Me
Inquisitive, spontaneous, great at switching between silliness and sentimental topics
Film and poetry are two of my passions, plus I adore weird ecological facts, niche recipes from history and debunking/discussing socio-psychological theories
For a lesser known side of SG, HMU if you need a fix of local art. I can usually suggest a few gigs/galleries/events worth exploring together
Also 🏳️🌈 bi/queer (she/they pronouns)
(I used to go by "Ilene" in case the references are confusing! Now I use Nic)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Here for funny, touching and eye opening experiences.
While we're all away from the countries we were born into, I want to hear from others what home and humanity is for them

What I Can Share with Hosts
We have some of the best and most diverse food+culture here, and while every globalized city claims that, what's special about Singapore are the South-east Asian influences, as well as the East meets West philosophies here. I enjoy sharing the histories and stories from our shores.
