About Me

Hello! I’m Grace (she/her), aka pelicularities on the Internet. This is my digital home base, a space where I share the things I love, the adventures I go on and the thoughts that fill my brain.

My great loves in life are video games, musical theatre, and languages. I really enjoy getting lost in different worlds – whether travelling in different cities and cultures, hiking in the forest or in the mountains, or disappearing into role-playing games.

By day, I am a software engineer, working on tooling for other engineers at a financial services company. I used to be an English teacher, and before that, I used to be a film student. These days, I create and teach in other ways.

I live in Singapore, where I was born and raised. I went to college in New York City and spent a semester in Madrid, and love both cities still. I’ve also spent a lot of time in Freiburg im Breisgau, and have many happy memories of the city and the region. Someday, I hope to live and make my life in yet another city, although I have yet to decide where that will be.

The name “películarities”

“película” is the Spanish word for film, and as a lover of films and languages, “películarities” is a word that seemed like it should exist.
