About Me

CURRENT MISSION

chuck all life worries for the moment and embark on my 50-days europe trip.

PHILOSOPHY

Live out loud! Live life to its fullest. Don't just laugh out loud, but cry out loud as well. Take all the wonderful feelings and let them out, they are the key to making dreams come true.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently, I am unable to host anyone as I'm living with my parents and brothers. Should I get a place of my own, I'll be most happy to host. Nevertheless, I always welcome requests for me to show you around Singapore and I will be glad to take you to enjoy the yummiest food we have to offer. Drinks and meetups are welcome too! :D

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: All but gore and horror shows (they simply freak me out! i spent 98% of the time behind my hands during those movies)
Music: Anything and everything (maybe except heavy metal). I'm trying to learn how to appreciate techno music.
Books: I read both novels and books which simply provides information. I enjoy reading books which allow me to ponder about things in life and books which impart knowledge (especially psyhcology related books).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My first dive was at the Great Barrier Reef. It was an awesome first dive experience!

Teach, Learn, Share

Having born, bred and still am living in Singapore, a multicultural country, I feel that I am able to relate to a number of cultures and am able to share this knowledge with others. On top of that, I have lived in Canada for a couple of months and have travelled to a number of countries, so I hope to share my experiences with others. As cliche as this may sound, I love learning more about the other cultures and meeting people from different cultures.
