ABOUT ME
Hello! I'm easy-going, friendly and love travelling just like you do. I grew up in Singapore, and lived in London for 3 years while attending university. Now I work in a backpackers hostel in Singapore and travel around Asia as often as I can without losing my job :D
I spend my extra time backpacking, slacklining, brewing coffee, and playing the ukulele even though I am horrible at it. I used to do Wushu (chinese martial arts), but those days are long gone :P
Generally, partying is not my scene. I prefer having sober fun, genuine conversations, and fully immersing myself in my surroundings.
Instead of collecting souvenirs when I travel, I do a cartwheel photo in every city that I visit, and currently have 70 in my collection.
Interests
Trying authentic local food from all over the world.
Learning new sports (currently into slacklining).
Listening to music on headphones.
Reading.
Coffee.
Outdoor activities - hiking, kayaking, or cycling.
I have been very interested in trying stand up paddling, but haven't had the chance to yet.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music:
I absolutely love Indie/Folk/Deep house, but I also enjoy good catchy oldies or anything that's currently popular on the radio.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Completing a 4-hours hike up Mount Sinai in Egypt and watching the sunrise from the peak!
Teach, Learn, Share
If you're interested in learning some Singlish - Singaporean English, I'll be happy to teach you (lah). It's a very unique, funny and efficient language!
I'm very obsessed with slacklining right now, so I'll probably bring it along when I travel and would love to share the sport with you!
