Expertise
I`m born in Singapore and I`ve lived here all my life. Can advise on different kinds of foods, interesting places to visit, the multi-racial culture and religion. I'm still learning about my country and sometimes I take tours given by specialist guides to certain places like Chinatown, Pulau Ubin(nature environment), architecture and food tours, just to learn more about my country.
Experience
I am a registered tour guide since 2002. I took up the course so that I could gain inside knowledge of some of the places I visit. Eg behind the scenes look at the zoo which is open only to guides and first try of any new activities in Singapore like the Flyer. I have a full time job and being a tour guide is just for fun.
