CURRENT MISSION:

To experience Antarctica before more of it melts away.
The Arctic and Africa are also on the neverending travel bucket-list.

I've recently finished my first solo trip to Patagonia, Argentina and Ecuador and all I can say is, I need to go back and see the rest of the continent.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting new people when I'm travelling, and chatting with locals allows me more insight into a country and its culture than perusing a guidebook. That's not to say that travel guides are completely useless...

When I'm back home, swapping experiences with other travellers is the drug that keeps me going till the next getaway.

Interests

Reading, anything food-related (besides washing dishes), outdoor activities, trekking, and travelling.
I also watch an unhealthy amount of TV and practise yoga in my spare time.

Music, Movies, and Books

Harry Potter (books), Game of Thrones (TV series and books), Kingkiller Chronicles and other fantasy novels. Favourite non-fiction titles include Freakonomics and the like. I must admit that I enjoy chick-lit, though I usually don't advertise this fact. Jeffrey Archer is another writer I love and I've started reading Harlan Coben's works as well.

Since I mentioned watching lots of TV shows, here are some of my favourites: Masterchef Australia, Modern Family, Friends (I still watch the re-runs), Suits, This is Us, Brooklyn Nine-nine, and Sherlock.

As for music, I'm a mainstream kinda person though I also have a passion for great soundtracks and concert band pieces.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lying in the snow and watching the Northern Lights dance across the Norwegian sky was an experience I'll never forget.
And then later that year, a spectacular multi-day hike in the Icelandic summer that kicked off my love for trekking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've lived in Singapore almost my whole life, so I can share a little bit about the culture here. If you love to eat, then I can bring you to some yummy places to have a satisfying meal.
I always have a great time playing tour-guide, so I'll be more than happy to show you around if that's what you need!
