What is one thing in Singapore that you love?
Love, love, love chili crab and nasi briyani with masala chicken
Tell us about yourself in 100 words:
Didn’t know there are no mountains to trek in Singapore so I’ve trekked in Malaysia, Vietnam and Nepal in the last few years. I love how small Singapore is – everything is so accessible. Fantastic sunset walk along the Singapore River from the Fullerton Hotel to Robertson Quay

What is one thing in Singapore that you love?
Weather! The ability to wear pretty dresses and sandals everyday and I don’t have to bring a jacket along when I go outside.
Tell us about yourself in 100 words:
I love traveling and trying new things. I decided to move to Singapore after a one night layover here where all I got to see was Little India and Chinatown. One year later, I moved here by myself and started a new job and life. My biggest passion is for pets (dogs). I recently became a mommy to a toy poodle and because of him, I’ve started an online pet company – anything to be able to interact more with pets and pet owners.

What is one thing in Singapore that you love?
Without a doubt, the culinary culture! I have never experienced food that integrates such diverse flavours to create mind-blowing culinary experiences
Tell us about yourself in 100 words:
I love trying anything new, different, be it while traveling, sharing a meal or meeting people from all walks of life. I’m pretty adventurous and love spending time with family and friends, hopefully over a good meal or concert.
