Hi I'm Merri ^_^

Up til two years ago, I lived my whole life in clean, green Singapore. If ever there was a model toy city, this was it. It's beautiful, safe, and has everything you ever need and despite it's other shortcomings, I love it with all my heart.
In a somewhat forced situation, I moved back to the place of my birth (Canada) to get a degree. Living abroad, in a place where no one knew me was challenging, and I never thought I would be able to truly consider it as home, all I wanted was to go home to Singapore. I was wrong. In a place where no one knows you, there is still kindness, generosity, and even love to be found.

I know the world has so much to offer, and all I know is just a tiny sliver of it all.
Which is why I'm stepping out to travel solo~

I really would like to start a travel and food blog/vlog too. working on it ^^

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It's one thing to explore the world.
It's another to explore the world through another's eyes.
I think it would be pretty cool to be able to meet people who have traveled places I've not been to and see it through their perspective. Or even gain a new view on places I have been before.

兴趣

I'm always open to trying new things, in fact I like it so much that my hair is never the same color for more than a month. On the flipside, I can never stay committed to one thing enough for it to truly be considered a hobby/interest. :P

The only exception is people I come to care for.

Oh, and food :B

音乐、电影和书籍

Music: A wide range really, but I do have a thing for acoustic, unique airy melodies.
Books: The Book Thief, The Alchemist.
Movies: Real Steel, Finding Nemo, Spirited Away.. Basically, I'm a sucker for anything Disney/Ghibli/Pixar/Marvel. & of course countless other animes (Angel Beats, Ouran High School Host Club, SAO...) and tv shows (HIMYM, The Big Bang Theory..)
