After high school, I followed what everyone would have done - choosing to go to university and study something that would 'guarantee' income in the future. That thing, ended up being Computing Sciences, where I graduated six years later with a double degree in International Studies.

I had spent one of the six years studying in Germany as part of my International Studies degree, a year that eventually opened my eyes and made my realize how much there is in the world to see and learn.

From then, I became a travel bug and a language enthusiast.

Traveling also made me realize there is so much I wanted to do and experience in this world other than sitting at the desk of my 9-5 job everyday. So, I inspired to be a writer.

My passion is ...

Travelling, writing, and reading

I know too much about ...

Nothing. One can never know too much about anything. There is always room to learn.

My parents always told me ...

Intelligence does not account to anything. You still need to work hard to gain your share.

My childhood ambition ...

To be a policewoman I think, then it was concert pianist and then a nurse. As a child, I wanted to be everything. I could never make up my mind!

My favorite memory ...

Receiving my first school award.

Why I write ...

Initially to release my emotions silently. Now I write because there is a certain urge in me wanting to communicate to the world, there is a world out there - go travel and learn!

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Reading Once While Travelling, the Lonely Planet Story. Extremely inspiring!

My first job ...

Waitressing earning AU$9 an hour.

My best moment ...

Waking up in the morning knowing it's a new day for me to achieve my dreams

My inspiration ...

All those who succeeded in achieving their dreams. I admire your strength and persistence.
