Hello! I live in Singapore, a tiny country in South East Asia. I'll be travelling around the US in August before heading to Canada for a student exchange program. I really want to understand the local culture and find the little beautiful gems unbeknownst to the tourist eye.

I'm always curious, very friendly and non-judgemental. I would love a good philosophical discussion about anything and everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To experience a place like a local

I'm hoping to Couchsurf around the USA. Still settling my accomodation in Toronto; if there's a couch and my roommates agree I'm happy to accept guests :)

Interests

Arts! I absolutely LOVE museums. Love contemporary/ lyrical jazz dance, chilling to some good music when im relaxing.

I can also carry a conversation about investing although I highly doubt that's going to make me more endearing to the typical couchsurfer.

I'm always trying new things. Recently I'm into baking and tech startups.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like dystopian novels- 1984, Brave New World, Lord of the Flies. Can't say the same for movies though Mad Max was traumatizing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Built a brick road for an orphanage in Myanmar

Teach, Learn, Share

I grew up in Singapore so I can tell you everything about it- politics, education system, food, culture. I have views of my own and would definitely add a fresh perspective to the conversation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be more than happy to bake for you! Or make you Singaporean food (Laksa, Bak Kut Teh or chicken rice if you like?)

Maybe teach the piano or guitar if you have these instruments in your home.
