Currently a 21 year old Singaporean waiting to begin university (majoring in English literature). I’m easygoing and open-minded, read pretty extensively, and would love to take this break to travel the world!

It’s a great platform to broaden my horizons and interact with people of various background and culture, without the overly commercialised aspect of travelling.
