About Me

CURRENT MISSION

TO TAKE A TRAIN FROM SINGAPORE TO RUSSIA (Also, to hitchhike to anywhere.)

ABOUT ME

DEAR STRANGERS,

I SEEK GREAT ADVENTURES AND TEMPORARY FRIENDS DURING THE TRANSIENT PASSAGE THAT IS MY LIFE.

I am a girl from Singapore who likes fun, adventure, and the unpredictability of everyday living. Hope to backpack a good amount before I decide what else I want to do.

Also, I keep very late nights and the only thing that can get me up at 5 in the morning is a good, gritty flea market. If there's one in your city, let's go there!

PHILOSOPHY

Every thing is transitory. (Que sera sera.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i roam half aimlessly in hopes of chance meetings and accidental friends.send your words my way if you find yourself in Singapore, soldiers! let's go!
p.s. because i often work the night shift (and on days off still stay up till sunrise) i'll be more likely to take you out to breakfast or a stroll around in the late late afternoons/evenings!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i went to Cambodia with strangers-turned-friends in May 2011, and then... we all went on happily ever after.

other assorted trails followed, of course.

Interests

Street art, quiet mischief, Sea monkies, trains and time-wasting. Also, Andy Warhol, the Sky, reggae and whatnot. Bonnie & Clyde, but Bonnie mostly (we share a birthday).

Long walks and rituals old and new.

Quiet riots.

Also, i'll stop and watch busking musicians anytime.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Technicolour dreams!

Moonrises, Sunsets...

Highways and hammocks, etc.

Teach, Learn, Share

My little green frog Ollie Kodok Frogobo can teach you how to charm little children, elves and old folk. He used to run a blog but nowadays does not update it because it is stressful on his webbed fingers!
