I am an American citizen from New York city. I am extraordinarily and profoundly well-educated. I work as a tour guide during the American hot season in New York, and when it's cold in New York I work in Singapore. Why Singapore? Because being a New Yorker, the greatest cosmopolitan city of the Western world, I am in love with the greatest cosmopolitan city of the Eastern world.

I am intoxicated with the magic of this city-state, where all the great religions of Asia exist peacefully side by side. I am fascinated by the exotic beauty of its colorful Hindu and Buddhist temples. I am exhilarated by the unique combination of traditional Southern Indian (Tamil) and Chinese architecture with modern skyscrapers, which looks to me like a happy marriage of East and West, an idea I very much believe in.

This marriage is evident not only in architecture but in the manners and mentality of its people, which charms me. The last but not the least, I am enthralled by the 2 religions most prominent in Singapore - Buddhism and Hinduism. My clients are stunned by my profound and extensive knoweldge of the Buddha, Krishna, Rama and the ideas of these unusual religions.

I tell about them with such passion and charisma that you will be almost as in love with them and Singapore as I am.
