About Me

Hey, I'm Zakiah. ☺️👋🏼 I was born in sunny Singapore, but Malaysia was once home to me for 8 years. Despite being a major couch-potato, I loveeee the outdoors, and I am always up for some fun in my country or abroad, seeking good food, and going on adventures when time permits! I've had the travel bug since moving abroad, and it's been my goal to travel to a new country each year, either with my family or solo. I will be embarking on my first proper solo trip this December, so cheers to being an independent solo female traveller! 🌺 Here's a fun fact about me: I tend to remember random physical things/attributes about friends, family, and even strangers, to the point that I can usually spot or identify a person from a mile away or even with one glance!

About Me

hello! my name is weiqi and as a third culture kid, my childhood of living abroad and making friends from different nationalities has spurred my curiosity for travelling and meeting new people. I've since moved back to my home country (singapore), but I still itch to connect with people from around the world and visit their cultures and spaces. I enjoy sharing conversations over coffee, visiting museums and parks, or simply walking the streets of a new city on foot while taking in the sights and sounds of the local traffic, people, and energy

Hi! I'm a 30-year-old lady who's so into travelling. However, being brown, it's not that easy convincing my parents about travelling solo unless she can be certain I am in good hands. Just seeing how this app can help me out! In any ways, I'd love to host on days that I am around in SG. However, I noticed this app lags quite frequently. Hence, if you need me, I am merely a Telegram text away! @tamtoomi

Solo travel experience

Great City to explore. An Overall really safe place. Accomodation is expensive, but Food can be cheap and delicious in the Hawker Centers. Drinks in the evening are mostly expensive as well, especially in some rooftop bars, but it's worth it🤭

Solo travel experience

I had a great experience. It was a good size for seeing around in short time. People are kind. City is clean. Food is tasty. Only bad point is that many things are more expensive. But you can get affordable price and tasty food at hookers.

Solo travel experience

I felt very safe, I walked everywhere, late at night on my own, and never felt unsafe. Singapore isn’t cheap but everything is affordable. I ate at Hawker Centres which were very good for proper local cuisine.
