Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission is to keep paddling along that river, you never know what's just around the corner...
ABOUT ME
I am young. I enjoy new adventures and big challenges. I am not ready to settle into one place or one thing. I believe life is all about discovering.
PHILOSOPHY
In a world where you can be anything, be yourself
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am a bit of a serial mover so it is difficult to host people since I usually just rent a room. However, I love meeting new people and don't mind showing people around the city or giving advice on what to check out.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have met up with a quite a few people who have visited Singapore. I've also done some surfing in Canada and Kenya. I have also done a road trip along the coast of Australia and did some couchsurfing along the way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I've ever seen was the strength in the eyes of my campers when I was running literacy camp on the reserves.
Also white water rafting in Ipoh, Malaysia and watching big blue butterflies fly over the river.
Teach, Learn, Share
Knowledge that I can share is that happiness isn't an end goal, it is a series of moments that come and go and then come back again. It isn't just getting that job, that person or that raise, it is a series of moments that continue throughout your life.
And I would like to learn to be fluent in French (I am halfway there!)
