Who am I...?

I'm a web editor from Singapore living in Tokyo. I'm building websites for a living as a writer on the go. I worked in print media for six years until I moved countries and used the Internet as a way to have a viable, mobile career. The Internet is a fascinating space and I never thought I would ever morph into a web chick - but here I am.

This blog is about...

...The ups and downs of expat life, trailing partner issues, food, travel, and Japanese culture. It's a way to keep in touch with friends back home and all over the world, plus it's a corner for me to showcase my work. But really, I'm just a restless spirit looking for great adventures and fabulous food.

Why I am in Sydney

I’m attending the kangaroo’s little brother’s wedding this weekend so we are hanging out here for 10 days. We have a string of family gatherings and meetups with friends.

Last night was the meet-the-in-laws bbq at Epping, where his brother and fiancé live. It’s a very suburban area and looks like Perth — wide open spaces with big residential houses stretched out along a seemingly endless road…

We had fun seeing some of the family while tucking into some good ol’ Aussie barbecued steak and chicken.

Today at lunch with the colleagues I learned these Aussisms: “cracking the shits” and “farting sparks” — they both mean to be very angry. Hilarious.

Anyway, this could be my last post till Monday because I won’t have Internet access. Have a good weekend, everyone!
