Overview
About Me
I believe in the freemasonry of the road, where you look upon every person as a friend with an almost childlike trust. Truly, a stranger is a friend you haven't met.

I was born and raised in Singapore, spent 3 years in Illinois for college, returned to Singapore after graduation and moved to Austin to call it home in late 2013! I recently moved back to Austin after spending 4 months in Tajikistan as a Kiva Fellow. Here in Austin I am also learning a little Portuguese through my Capoeira training.
In Singapore I founded a language exchange community called Tete-a-Tete which seeks to bring folks together to speak, well, non-English! You may check it out at -> http://www.facebook.com/i.tete.a.tete
"You gotta live to learn
You gotta crash and burn
You gotta make some stances
and take some chances
You gotta live and love
and take all life has to give
You gotta live and learn
so you can learn to live"
