Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To not just live for myself and to make a difference in peoples (or animals) lives!
ABOUT ME
I am currently a postgraduate at Mannheim Business School. I was a working professional in the financial industry. I don't travel a lot, but i would do more travel going forward and what's better to experience a country than to meet the locals in their country to learn more about each others culture, food and lifestyle. Life is short, live it to the fullest!
PHILOSOPHY
Don't waste time living someone else's life.
I am keen to know more friends and share stories of our travelling adventures! So if you are keen to meet up over beers or coffee, or even a meal, hit me up!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I met a CS-er through a friend of mine and he introduced me to the community. I feel that counchsurfing can really offer a great platform for non-travellers like myself to travel and really to understand other country's culture!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first CS experience was a recent trip to Taiwan in August 2013. It was one of the best experience i have ever had and i hope to travel to 2 new countries every year!! Lots of fun and laughter!
Interests
I love sitting by a cafe, sipping on coffee and talking about everything under the stars. But if there is a passion within me, it's got to be food and animals! During my free time, i help out at an dog shelter in Singapore and love to explore the local streets for all kinds of food. If you're very much into animals and food as i do, hit me up!

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Riding a scooter in the middle of Dulan (Taiwan) with a bunch of fellow backpackers to a secluded beach at 1am in the morning to watch the most amazing display of shooting stars as well as sharing a wonderful conversation together! Also, taking part in a student protest on my first day of arrival! Hows that for a start!?
Teach, Learn, Share
I am an avid follower of the financial markets and make a living trading for my company. So if you are keen to talk more about trading and the markets, awesome!
