Meet Yvonne, from Singapore. With a penchant for adventure, she's danced between jobs more times than I can count, all in the name of exploring news countries and cultures. Although she has just relocated to Portugal, she has no intention of slowing down - sharing her time between country hopping, diving, festivals and more. Her most valued passport? The one that resides in her infectious laugh and unyielding good humour.
