What was the most valuable lesson you learnt whilst at Durham?
To be open-minded and brave enough to try as many new things as possible. 

What are your fondest memories of Durham?
The friendships forged in and out of college, finding creative ways to keep ourselves entertained, and the beautiful scenery that Durham and the surrounding towns have to offer.

What kind of people make up the Durham alumni community in your area? Are they expatriates or locals?
In Singapore the majority of the Durham alumni community are Singapore nationals, with a few expatriates in the mix.

What inspired you to sign up as an alumni volunteer?
To preserve the special bond we have as students who had studied overseas in Durham.

What do you love most about your current location?
It is my hometown so I don’t want to sound biased or clichéd, but I do love everything about it; from the food to the clean streets (save for the high standard of living of course)
