CURRENT MISSION

To explore, meet and learn from other travellers in our not so safe and crazy world!

ABOUT ME

I'm currently staying with my aunt in Singapore while i work away as a trader. Other than that, what really keeps me alive and kicking is my other love for music! Not having music is like not being able to see the rainbow over a sunny day! I'm pretty open minded about many issues, you can talk to me on anything, as long as there's a nice cup of coffee and a chocolate cake to go along with ;)

PHILOSOPHY

'Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today' - James Dean

'The brave may not live forever - but the cautious do not live at all!' - Richard Branson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Through surfing at other people's couches, as well as hosting(i'm getting that up to speed!). And its so lovely when you hear different stories, learning about different cultures, from meeting different people you meet across this planet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted only twice so far, other times i have surfed at others couches. And also, the occasional meetings and gatherings. Have not been hosting or surfing recently due to travel and family commitments.

Interests

Sports like soccer and basketball and a bit of tennis(not really good at it). Music, which i absolutely love! R&B, rock, bossa nova, jazz, latin. Just some of the genres that keep me ticking! Poker (although just as a friendly game, nothing serious!) teaches to be absolutely patient sometimes. Somehow, that also correlates with trading I find. Food, food and more food! A general interest in photography and also, reading worthwhile, interesting and crazy books! Now am also having a starting interest in cooking (I am oh-so-terrible at it!), and a very passive interest in woodcarving

Music, Movies, and Books

Pulp Fiction, Fight Club, Indiana Jones, Underworld, Murder on the Orient Express, The Dark Knight, The Imitation Game, Birdman, Theory Of Everything, any dance movies, movies that are thought provoking. Am also interested in foreign language films, sometimes they can be quite meaningful. Most styles of music (as described above). A wide range of financial books, autobiographies, and any other books that capture my 'reading wave'. Mystery books like Agatha Christie!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been hitchhiking with fellow CSers in Singapore (that's an absolute rarity!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to read or learn some new boring financial stuff, i would love to learn anything-ranging from poker, cooking; anything within life itself! And i can definitely share a smile and make for a brilliant bullshit conversation to keep that smile on ;)
