About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have coffee in every city / country that I visit.

ABOUT ME
I am an avid reader and I love poetry. My sun rises and sets with coffee. I also adore animals especially penguins and dogs.

I love meeting new people and to learn about the different cultures of the world. I haven't been able to travel much and so I've been involved in postcards exchange with random people across the globe. It gives me an opportunity to see the world through their eyes, filled with inspiring stories. I also find beauty in getting a glimpse of a stranger's life and adventures - bits and pieces that I may not be able to experience for myself.

PHILOSOPHY

In life, there are too many 'what if' and 'if only' but neither changes a thing so I've learned to just embrace life and constantly count my blessings.

Two of my all-time-favourite quotes:

"Whatever comes, let it come, what stays let stay, what goes let go." - Papaji

"I learned to give not because I have too much but because I know exactly how it feels to have nothing." - anonymous

Teach, Learn, Share

If you'd like to learn Malay or Cantonese, I can help with that too. I also have some basic knowledge in balloon twisting as I deal with children a lot and I'd be happy to share.
