She is wild about Singapore's wild places and is particularly fond of our wild shores. Which inspired her to start the wildsingapore website as a one-stop location for Singaporeans to explore, express and act for our wild places.

She blogs about her adventures as a nature volunteer at wild shores of singapore. More about wildsingapore and about Ria.
