I am a commercial real estate finance consultant with a wide variety of interests. I love to exercise, hike, cross country and downhill ski, dance, sing karaoke, travel, enjoy good food and meet new people. I grew up in Singapore and moved to Seattle for college in 1995 and haven't left since as I LOVE Seattle and all that it has to offer. From the city life to beautiful nature activities just an hour from the city. Lots of good food and varied music events.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling and meeting new people. And since I can't travel all the time, the next best way is to meet people visiting Seattle. I am unable to host due to having a large family and limited space, but a good friend, who knows my interests, suggested I join Couchsurfer to use it as an opportunity to meet new people.

I'm looking forward to meeting new people and showing them the Seattle that I know.
