Hello! I'm Rachael and am currently on the other side of the world from my home country for an exchange program in Montreal! I study Economics back at home in Singapore. I enjoy travelling and meeting new people around the world. I like taking things slowly in my travels and often spend a great deal of time staying put at and immersing myself in one place. However, I am also always up for adventure, be it hiking up a mountain or rafting down the rapids :-) I like playing the guitar most in my free time and am a coffee lover!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people from around the world and hearing about their travels, aspirations and views. I've met a lot of welcoming and generous people in my travels and hope to one day do the same for other travellers!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite singer is Taeyeon. I like Korean music, mostly of the hiphop and indie genre and basically anything that sounds chill. I also listen to X.
