Hi There!

I'm 23, from Singapore, currently pursing an Architecture degree. I'm on exchange in Sweden now and I really love it here!

Still in the process of figuring out what I would like to do in future, but I'm trying to enjoy life in the meantime, travelling when I can, to see how people live differently around the world.

I have a passion for handmade craft, I picked up sewing a few years ago and experiment with custom handcrafted bags which I sell sometimes!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've heard about the warm and fulfilling experiences people have on CS, I wanted to give it a try and learn about the places I'm visiting through the eyes of the locals. Sometimes I like wandering around by myself but it's great to have somebody who knows the place show you the best spots and share their personal encounters.

I'm currently unable to host as I'm doing my exchange studies in Sweden, sorry about that!

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly just hit up Spotify's playlists, their algorithm is so good, I like anything in the chill-indie genre.

My favourite books from childhood are the Harry Potter series, but these days I read thrillers, fiction, classics, anything really. Oh I also really enjoy brain psychology books

Currently I'm trying to read a Swedish children's book to learn some Swedish!

Last Movie I watched: Avengers: End Game

Favourite TV Shows right now: Game of Thrones, Westworld, Altered Carbon, The 100, Peaky Blinders

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While I served in army for two years, we had to navigate the jungles of Brunei for 8 days with a paper map, surviving of whatever we could find in the jungle. It was one of the hardest experiences I've had to go through both physically and mentally, but I learnt so much from it!
