About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To figure out what my current mission is

ABOUT ME

I like doing crosswords, and I can't eat cilantro.Orphaned as a cub on the mean streets of Singapore, I was taken in by a pack of wild jungel koalas who raised me on Roald Dahl, Judy Blume and lots and lots of potato chips.Years later, I've matured and integrated into society as (I think/hope) a mild mannered, well adjusted, polite and generally acceptable hunam....although a few things have stuck from my upbringing, like bad timing an even worse sense of humour.I like books and blogs, I snack and nap, I ride bikes fast, I laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

To quote famously,

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can't say much yet. I'd be equally happy to meet up and hang out as to host.

Interests

Everything! There isn't anything I wouldn't be interested to do, or talk about. Or eat. I have a slight bias for tango, diving, fire, motorcycles, mountain hikes...I studied economics, and ended up pretty interested in the subject (fortunately?). I do enjoy a good chat about economics and economists for new ideas and learning new things. (Just in case you're a fellow econo-geek too)Oh, and of course I'm generally excited about all and different kinds of people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
