About Me

Hello! I'm an ever optimist who likes to spread smiles to others. While my day job is at lifestyle TV channels (food porn included!), I make films and take photographs in my spare time.

I'm an Indonesian who has been living in Singapore for the past 14 years. Ultimately, my dream will be to get out of Singapore and work in the film industry full time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love bringing people around the cities that I'm based in (currently it's the sunny Singapore!) Wanna know where's the best coffee? Or most intriguing art spaces? Ask me!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2013, my friend and I did a crowdfunding project for our comedy web series, and we raised more than our targeted amount! If you're ever curious, look for "Alice Wants a Date" on YouTube.

Travelling alone to Berlin and three Italian cities. Somehow, I always manage to meet interesting people and make new friends along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything about Singapore, Jakarta, or Paris! (I lived in Paris for 6 months for university exchange)

I can teach you Bahasa Indonesia, Chinese Mandarin and even Singlish!

I've been into photography for 6 years now, so I'm more than willing to share what I have learnt thus far :D

Lastly, I can share with you some lame jokes. Like, Batman and Superman are on a race. Who's the winner? Stay tuned....
