Hello, darlings I'm Kathleen also known as Startup Nomad. I'm based in Singapore, a tech enthusiast, and passionate about writing. I began blogging in 2012 but I only take it seriously 4 years ago. I focus on the business content as the economy is starting to perk up and a fascinating time to cover the trading market. I work in a startup by day and I do trade by night in crypto, stocks, and PPE. On weekend, I engineer #briefcasepc in my home office. I built it for the purpose of trading, understanding algorithms, and financial analysis charts. For brand collaboration, pr@startup-nomad.com.

Here I am sharing unfiltered story on how normal a lifestyle in Singapore despite the Coronavirus outbreak. It is advisable to not speculate and/or spread unfounded rumours. Visit the Ministry of Health in Singapore for valid updates on the COVID-19 situation.
I’m not going to lie; it’s hard to imagine a life outside Singapore. I mean I’ve been living here for nearly 20 years and I have so many amazing memories. Although I’ve lived overseas before in New York (2007), Sydney (2008/2010) and Boston (2015/16) but I keep coming back to Singapore.

When I came back to Singapore from Dublin my TV was broken. 😭😭 And I couldn’t help but worried I will get bored in my evenings at home. I’m addicted to #Netflix, HBO and the TV shows I downloaded in my server hence, to watch a TV at night is my siesta time. Haha!
I don’t want to spend over $1,000 for a nice TV so, I’ve thought it is brilliant to set up an …
It feels good to be able to blog again whilst my sister is visiting Southeast Asia. I have over 3 weeks off and it feels strange that I have so much time to enjoy the little things. I’ve spent 1.2 weeks in Manila and I enjoyed the local food and spa! Nothing beats a body massage that comes with a fresh honey ginger tea after. I feel rejuvenated. I didn’t organize any meetup dates with …
I grew up in a home where good meals are served on a daily basis and on the weekend, we have a feast. My mum has European descent and her tastes for meals, table setting, and weekend getaway for her children are admirable. Few times a year we have fancy parties in our home where I helped in the kitchen to table décor. At age eight, I designed the table around them – using flowers, napkins, colourful …
I have an upcoming project with my business partners and we are working on UX/UI design. I can’t reveal it yet but you will all know it here before we launch it. It feels insane to type out the functionality on Balsamiq! I’ve been working on it with the team for hours until midnight almost every day. I never thought I’d go to so many details after my PC briefcase project. Haha!

I don’t usually post photos of my home because I don’t intend to be a style blogger but since I’m planning to relocate next year (or God knows even sooner?) I have thought to share my home as I have so many sweet memories here. More than a year ago I moved out from an HDB to a sub-urban apartment in Singapore near the reservoir with an intent that maybe, just maybe if I will …
HOW NOT TO OVERSPEND ON WEEKEND?
I’ve been asked many times of what I do for a living on a daily basis. Did you know in the U.S., this question is actually offensive? It sounds like you’re making a judgement of other person’s earning and what she does for a living. In Singapore for some reasons, this is a common question of most locals. I believe, they are interested of what others are really doing for a …
