Singaporean currently working in Bangkok for 2 years.

Don't be afraid of the world. 不要害怕世界。

世上没有不可能的事，只有还没发生过的事。

Whatever you do in life, never regret your choice. Travelling is a way to broaden your horizons and open up your mind to see new perspectives. Everyone has a story behind them. I like talking to people, interacting and living with them. What they say can be interesting and informative. We can learn things which might be useful in the future. Immersing in the local way of culture is what I like to do while travelling, and what better way to do it than couchsurfing?

Everyone carries with them an imaginary backpack of life. This imaginary backpack collects all your travel experiences, memories and learnings. Keep on collecting them. You never know when you might need certain things or skills from the backpack. If you need it one day, just take it out from your backpack and use it.

Recently quit my job to travel 2 years around the world. I have gone to all 10 countries in South East Asia, Japan, China and volunteered for 3 months at a local organic farm in Taiwan. Travelled 6 months across South America and went to Brasil to volunteer for 3 months teaching English at a local school. Would love to share all my travel stories with you and let's get to know each other!

The world is an amazing place to live in. I also love languages and would like to learn your local language. Time to get out and see for ourselves what the world means to us.
