About me -

-

-In March 2018, I left my undergraduate-studies in Computer Science, even - though it was my Final Year of the course of study. I just didn't - believe anymore in what I was doing. I wasn't enjoying my time, and it - was taking a toll on my mental health. So, I left. -

-

-Here's part of my beliefs: -

- -Fast-forward two years (since I left University), I am enjoying myself, and I am managing to have (enough) material comfort. -

- -

What am I doing now? -

-

-Right now, I am participating in an exchange of language and culture, with international people, as part of the organisation Mundo Lingo. -

-

-Mundo Lingo has a presence in many cities, and in light of the pandemic, we have moved from in-person gatherings to online chat-groups. -

-

-I do not ask for a salary for my work with Mundo Lingo - in my limited knowledge, nobody in Mundo Lingo gets a salary - but I do feel rewarded with friendships and what internationals share with me, about their home culture and language. (You may already know that I am teaching Singlish, or Singapore-flavoured English language, to at least one Burmese lady, as part of such work). -

-

-I believe in continuing education - in the hopes of learning the Indonesian language, I had a one-hour chat with an England-based Indonesian, over the Internet. -

-

-And I'm taking a eight-week online course as well, "Writing in the sciences". From Stanford University, and happily, free of charge. It's Week 3 for me now. Yesterday I learnt more about punctuating my sentences for variety -

-

-About painting - while clearing my emails, I got more ideas for my artistic practice: various gallerists introduced new media or new artists -
