About Me

Hello there!

I am a third-year university student from Singapore, who is currently on exchange at the University of Toronto! I am travelling and exploring the surrounding areas as much as I can in the free time that I have.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I'm big on fiction, especially fantasy, and enjoy an injection of humour in the writing. I love writers such as Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Scott Lynch, Patrick Rothfuss, Peter Brett, Neil Gaiman, and a handful of other authors and books.

Music: Open to most music, have a particular penchant for a capella, indie, folk, R&B, country, jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I trained and served as a firefighter for two years (of conscription) in my country and fought a fire on the 65th floor of a building!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you a lot about the creole found in Singapore known as Singlish!

What I Can Share with Hosts

An asian perspective.
Travel experiences in Asia - including crossing dodgy borders on foot and taking a dump in a jungle.
My experience with conscription.
Some music, a song or two on the guitar or piano (still amateurish).
