Lim grew up raising poultry on a farm in Punggol and ran with the 40 thieves of Sungei Road. After his dreams of either taking over the family farm or becoming a Karung guni man (Rag-and-bone man) were dashed, he joined the tech industry. Lim spent some time in the technology world before realising that guiding was way more fun. If he is not guiding, you can find Lim drinking too much coffee or enjoying sci-fi novels, punk rock, and sleeping under the stars. Lim is passionate about many topics, not least urban farming.
