My name is Thomas Chan, a '91 business owner living in Singapore - a beautiful country with four seasons - hot, hotter, sibei hot (very), hot until buay tahan (cannot tolerate). After deliberating for years, I ended up taking psychology as my major at university. Besides thinking about what you are thinking about what I am thinking, I have a huge passion for arts, food, and travel. With whatever free time I have (at least before my dear baby Olivia comes into the picture), I read, catch up on dramas, crochet and bake.
I am people-oriented, and love to do loads of crazy stuff. And I want to be the very best like no one ever was. Yeah, like a Pokemon master. My writing style is simple and nothing serious with a lot of intentional Singlish (in italics and explanation) - perfect for a casual read anytime, anywhere. #BHB (buay hiao bai - no shame/embarrassment) advertisement. I am happily married to the sweetest and kindest lady, Lydia, since February 2018. Although she tends to have her moments, I consider her as the greatest blessing of my life.
On November 2018, we are blessed with a beautiful daughter, whom we named "Olivia", and of course, the blessings also come with endless worries, anxieties, and major sleep-deprivation. As of the time of writing, we are still struggling and getting used to being new parents. Two quick reflections: (1) I salute to all parents, especially the mothers, and (2) all this will come to pass, and when it does, I am going to miss it.
Why start a blog?
Looking at all the successful local lifestyle blogs, together with my unfailing love for food and photography, I decided to establish my own too, and voila! That is how Nomsaurus is found. Through here, I blog about a couple of things such as food recommendation and travel itineraries. There's even a tried-and-tested recipe page so you can impress your loved ones with minimal effort!
On February 2022, we welcome our second - this time a little man whom we named Emmanuel!
