Nice to meet everyone here, my name is Amber. I grow up in Malaysia and Singapore is my home now. After spending more than half my life working in a corporate, I quit my day job in Nov 2021 and living my full-time entrepreneur life now. My background is in media, advertising, eCommerce, and logistic, but I ran a spa now. Running my own business gives me the flexibility to travel often, but that also means I do need to hop onto my laptop when I'm traveling:)

Some life events in recent years have changed my view on life. I believe life is a journey, it's not where you ended up, but rather the experiences that had shaped you, and the people you met that impacted you to be who you are. Living to me now is - breathing with an open heart, accepting graciously, and giving with respect.

I love taking pictures and making vlogs on my travel journey, these are my ways of recording my footstep and something to hold on to for support. You will find me traveling with my camera and tripod, and inside my backpack, there will be wine, chocolate, and raspberry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling to me now is no longer the 5-star hotels and fine dining in the Michelin-star restaurant (although I still do that sometimes), it is about the people you meet, the local culture you are about to explore, the authentic events that you are so blessed to participate in, and the local street food and dessert that will fill your stomach and soul. Traveling is healing to me.
