About Me

I'm a university student pursuing a business degree in National University of Singapore! I was born and raised in Singapore which is a tropical country so I've not had an authentic experience of the 4 seasons (yes, sadly). My closest experience was recent where I spent 6 months abroad in Vancouver, Canada for a study exchange programme. I'm also a real foodie and I love trying all kinds of different cuisines!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm travelling solo from Dec 2017 - Jan 2018 so this is the best chance I have to meet locals and to really understand the everyday life of people from various cultures.

Interests

I'm really into music and I usually have my earpiece on whenever its socially acceptable, trying to find new music! Love watching movies and reading during my free time but I get sleepy really easily so sometimes I fall asleep while doing any of the above. But I've never fallen asleep while eating before!
