One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The scariest thing I had ever seen is the killing field, skull tower and war prison in Cambodia. You can never imagine how evil people can be, what atrocities people can do.
The most amazing thing I had done was to do 3 bungy jumps and 2 skydiving in just a month in Macau, Australia and New Zealand. An adventurous month indeed.

Teach, Learn, Share

teach u some Chinese n basic (not professional) pilates

I could share the Singlish culture with you. You can be so amazed how Singaporeans can be so creative to merge different languages together to form their own "language" and culture
It would be nice if you teach me a few words of your Mother Tongue languages.

Being in a tropical country, I don't have the opportunity to engage in snow sports. It would be great if you can teach me some, e.g. skiing, snowboarding

Australia, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Malaysia, New Zealand, Poland, Thailand, United States, Viet Nam
