About Me

Tall girl from a small world( that is very connected to the rest of the globe!)

Hey there! I love genuine conversations concerning life, philosophies, social issues, politics, books, films, animals and honestly, anything! I believe it's the company that makes the journey worthwhile and am always looking to meet new people, have a drink and explore cities :)

Nature, poems, good songs and films are always great

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards, for there you have been and there you will long to return."
-- Leonardo Da Vinci

The world is big and there is much we do not yet know of. I love exploring new places and learning about new cultures, forming new ties and who knows some friends may be for life ;) I'd rather have a real experience living in a new place with locals than to be a tourist and never know what makes the country come alive.

Interests

Very keen on social issues and theater, though I'd hardly say I'm well-versed in either! There's always more to learn and grow from/into :) Absolutely love nature, exploring the local scenes and once in a while, I can sprinkle some Economics into the mix!

Music, Movies, and Books

There're too many to name but essentially,

Any tune with a good beat and vibe,
Any movie that makes me think a little more about life, and
Any book that I am completely lost in.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My best adventures from always involve being stranded somewhere and meeting the most wholesome individuals :) One of my favorites is getting lost after climbing Snowdonia and hitchhiking out!

Teach, Learn, Share

We all have something to give :)

I'd just love to see how your part of the world works!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Off the top of my head, I can teach you Mandarin and all the funny way things are in Singapore! I'll also be more than happy to share with you about life in Asia, and if we get groceries, a meal or two!
More things will come up as we go along :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Canada, China, France, Indonesia, Malaysia, Netherlands, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, United States, Wales

Countries I’ve Lived In
