CURRENT MISSION

to realise that home is everywhere

ABOUT ME

I just graduated from college in Medford, MA where I majored in Peace and Justice Studies and Religion, and I just moved back to Singapore where I'm trying to figure out a way to negotiate life as an adult with chronically itchy feet.

I'm not a big fan of air-conditioning, and I get easily distracted by street music, free food, street art and nice smells. I don't like making plans, but I like almost everything else, including hiplife and dessert.

PHILOSOPHY

"One day you will learn to give and receive love like an open window and it'll feel like summer every day"

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I get my own house where I will host people from CS ALL THE TIME. Right now I live at home with my parents, so staying with us might not be much fun for anyone, but I would love to show you around my favourite places in this city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed for the first time in December last year and truly, it's given me my favourite travel experiences since (in the South and in Taiwan)! Maybe I've been lucky so far (definitely) but CS continually gives me hope about human goodness.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

5 months of Ghanaian hospitality, and getting lost on a tro-tro and almost ending up in Togo by accident, but being rescued by the kindness of strangers.

Being rescued by the kindness of strangers everywhere, really.

Street bands in NOLA and Mountain Animation in the NYC subways.

The sun setting over the Mississippi. :)

Riding pillion in Kaohsiung.
