About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

*I am sorry if I do not respond, sometimes I am just too busy to even look at the email*

*PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE AND NOT A COUCHSURF REQUEST*

I am currently an undergrad student studying at the National University of Singapore.

I love travelling because it opens up the mind and you see things in a different way. Perceptions change and the mind matures. A simply wonderful feeling.

I am a straightforward person and I value honesty a lot. I am quite trusting of people, but I can be unforgiving should the trust be broken. I am friendly and I love talking to people about life experiences, travelling experiences, news and major events happening in the world.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life with no regrets. If you keep hesitating, you will never get things done. If you say that you are going to do something, do it. Don't wait, or it may be too late.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I usually host only during my university vacations, but I may make exceptions depending on my availability. I am usually game for meetings and hanging out with people, as long as I feel that you are genuinely interested in making friends, and not just out to get a free tour guide.I believe in giving back, so when I host, I do it to the best I can. I would rather do quality hosting than quantity hosting. If you are accepted to be my guest, you will be very well taken care of, that I can assure you. If you get to be my guest, count yourself lucky. I will not reveal my vacation periods, just for the fun of it. :)I ask for nothing when I host, apart from the basic manners and respect that all civilised people should have. In the end, I will be very happy if a lasting friendship was forged out of this.I will couchsurf whenever I can, because I like the concept very much, but sometimes, depending on who I am travelling with, it is not always convenient. But still, I love this. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Places I couchsurfed:

Zurich
Munich
Amsterdam
Paris
Bordeaux
Barcelona
Milan

Guests I have hosted:

Anni and Benny (Dortmund, Germany) - 15th to 17th December 2010
Anna and Pia (Germany) - 12th to 14th October 2012

This is such a great concept. Nothing is more rewarding than living with locals and learning about their culture. Couchsurfing provides a very important channel to experience something that tour groups and traditional travel cannot offer.

Thumbs up :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I semi-backpacked Italy alone when I was 20. Had the most wonderful experience and the only regret I have is not staying longer. I learnt a lot about myself and also experienced a new culture and saw the most wonderful works of art. Laura Pausini's concert at the Arena di Verona on 29th June 2009 was simply breathtaking.

I did a 31-day Europe backpacking tour of 10 cities in April/May 2010. I met the most friendly and amazing people ever. And I saw so much. It was extremely memorable and fun.
