Description
Hi there! I'm J!
I am currently on a gap year (on a working holiday visa) to recharge and explore New Zealand. I would love to gain new experiences and give back to the society in one way or another. I have been working for the past 10 years and I would love to use this working-holiday opportunity to try new things and anything that gets me out of that boring 4 walls + 1 desk.
I would love to spend more time in nature. During my free time (back in Singapore), I love to walk, hike, play badminton and play board games & mahjong with friends! I also volunteer at a children's home in Batam (Indonesia) frequently until Covid hit :(
I like kids, dogs and find cleaning therapeutic :)Interests

I have 10 years of working experience - although mainly in sales and marketing field (with the last 7 years doing client servicing, media planning and buying), I am hands-on, open and keen to learn new experiences!
I have previously started a project (together with 3 other like-minded volunteers) at a children's home in Batam (Indonesia), to encourage and improve the kids' written and conversational English. I enjoy teaching and building relationship with the children.Age

What else ...
In my free time, I like to take on long walks and hike. I enjoy playing badminton and scuba dive (although I have not done so in the last 2.5 years due to Covid :( ). Sometimes I do board games night with my friends as well - playing Decrypto, Ticket to Ride, Codenames.
