About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel to 30 countries before my 30th birthday #30before30 as I call it. I'm currently at 26th country and 50th city. I don't have any specific list of countries to scratch out but hoping for the best to come along. As they say, “I haven’t been everywhere but it’s on my list.”.

To sum up, I'll just quote one of my favorite movies: "To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life."

ABOUT ME

Just like anyone on this site, I love to travel! For most of us, yes, that's an understatement. My job gives me the opportunity to travel and whenever I got the chance, I extend my trips and wander around the places nearby. Not sure what I did in my past life but I got lucky to have those opportunities. Although, travelling is not that easy with my third world passport.

Aside from travel, I love photography. I love to do landscape and street photography.

Looking forward to meet you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly meeting up with locals or co-travelers.

Now I am trying to pay it forward for all the great experiences that I had from CS.

I am renting a master bedroom here in Singapore and if you don't mind sharing the room with me I could host you. ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met surfers from Asia, Latin America, USA and Europe. I should say nothing has been short of great! Just great.

Teach, Learn, Share

To travel is to appreciate things and learn how small you are in this world.

To travel is to experience things and learn how connected you are to the world and everyone who lives in it.

To travel is to see things differently- on a different light, different perspective, different culture.
