About Me

Hi! I'm Johann, 23. Im from Singapore, but currently studying in the UK in my final year of degree in Music Technology.

I love travelling to new places, meeting new people and experiencing new cultures! I'm really adventurous and spontaneous. I play guitar fairly well. I'm up for a good old blues jam anytime.

A perfect evening would probably be a BBQ campfire, cold beer, good company under a vast starry sky. (yet to check off my bucket list)

I love making music too! Check out my soundcloud!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the past 20+ years of my i've been in southeast Asia and have visited countries like Malaysia, Thailand, Brunei, Australia and India but I've never travelled to this side of the world (Europe/America). Now I'm so close to Europe and Scandinavia! countries I've only dreamed of visiting! So i'm taking this final year while I'm here to see as much of the world as possible!

It's the people that make the place! Visiting as a tourist is fun but visiting a friend is even better!

I'm on Couchsurfing because I don't just want to visit a place and leave with just photographs but also memories, the understanding of a new culture and most of all new friend!

Music, Movies, and Books

My Favourite artist is currently Of Monster and Men! But i love tracks from Bon Iver, John Mayer, Jack Johnson, The Oh Hellos. I also really dig 90's pop/rock! (westlife, linkin park... that era)

My Favourite movie franchise would be Lord of The Rings! Favourite TV Series is currently Vikings although i really like GoT, HIMYM, and Parks and Rec!

The only books i read are really my research text books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On Amazing thing I've done would be to survive a 9-day survival course on 2 days worth of rations. (if we ever meet you can ask me about it!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you Singlish! (Singaporean English).

I can teach a song on guitar and ukulele. (I used to teach music to primary school students)

Share with you some music i've written, and the recording, mixing process if you're interested in Music Production.

Share with you my love of electric guitars and pedals.

I would love to learn a bit of your languages beyond vulgarities (People tend to teach that first, I don't know why.) I'll be grateful to learn a few guitar riffs or maybe a famous song in your country! (:
