About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Regrets should stay as regrets and never be repeated.

ABOUT ME

I realized that this profile is hopelessly back-dated and decided to update it for future hosts/potential couchsurfers. So I'm currently not a high school student anymore but has advanced to college in University of Washington in Seattle, USA. I came from Singapore but most of the time next year I'll be living in Seattle with 6 other girls in a house. So if you need a couch, it may be unavailable as my housemates may feel uncomfortable. However, meet-ups and coffee are always possible. :)

In my free time, I read and I used to play the piano but because of the lack of instrument these days I don't play as much. Now I have found new interests such as drawing and of course, traveling. Amongst many other dreams such as opening a cafe and an art gallery, my lifelong ambition is to save up enough money and go travel around the world. And I'm recently into the Italian culture. So if you're Italian or speak Italian, please contact me and we can practice together!

Oh and food, it's really unfitting for a Singaporean to not talk about food. If you're into food as well, I can bring you some flavor packs of Singapore's local food and cook up a storm in your kitchen (not literally of course). Otherwise, I can talk to you about food. In fact, my first Italian oral presentation was about food. But currently translations only available in English, Chinese and Italian. Haha.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to dwell on the past. Get on with it!
