Overview
About Me
Watching cat videos is my favourite past time. My goal is to visit as many countries as possible! My heart is always itching to be in a new country and city. I also value traditions and local culture, hence first thing to do in my list is to find the most affordable and delicious eatery that locals go to. Food is definitely my favourite way to experience new culture. But there is one thing I will never be able to appreciate: coriander on anything.
I love spicy food. 90% of the dishes I have at home has chilli as the spice. Share with me the spiciest food in your city! I am borderline Japanophile and I have been attending the Singapore Annual Japanese Summer Festival for the 8th year consecutively, but I missed the 9th visit last year because I was high up in the Tibetan Autonomous Region in China! I started making candy apples 3 years ago and distributed them F.O.C simply hoping to make the recipients happy, will definitely do it again in future if I can
I am also interested in Bollywood, Tollywood movies but I am not too knowledgeable on them. I have watched Fanaa, Three Idiots, Hello, Chennai Express, Baahubali, I once watched Baahubali at the theatre in Singapore and all other audiences looked at me as if I went to the wrong place, even the counter lady was shocked that a Chinese is buying ticket to this movie. That was a fun experience.
If you are ever dropping by Singapore, let me know if you want to go have some good local food together, unless if you are vegetarian...because I consider myself a carnivore

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once placed a bag of stale crackers into the microwave and I created an artificial thunderstorm. I once tried to make poached egg but I forgot and it blew up....a little. I once exploded my family's first and last microwave in Indonesia by placing a piece of toast and sugar inside, I still have no idea what happened but I am a better friend with microwaves nowadays, don't worry.
What I Can Share with Hosts
If you have the kitchen tools, I could perhaps whip up a dish for you :) Or if you simply want to know more about Singapore, Indonesia or my story about a Indonesian who has lived more than half her lifetime in Singapore instead
