Read on to find out! ????\r\n\r\nWhen Carro first met Phoebe, we would have never guessed that one of her favourite activities is eating and going on food trails. \u201cIf I were to go to a buffet or a steamboat place, I can really sit there and just eat the whole day,\u201d Phoebe said. This is why she likes to go on food trails, especially when she\u2019s overseas. Being a foodie, Phoebe spends way more money on food than on luxury goods like bags or shoes. Yet, she still manages to stay in shape! Her secret was, of course, exercise. She used to do a lot of exercise, from swimming and gymnastics to being a part of her school\u2019s cheerleading team, participating in nationals. As such, she believes that eventually her body ended up with very good metabolism.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7388\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7388\" style=\"width: 5760px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7388\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5760\" height=\"3840\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015.jpg 5760w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1015-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5760px) 100vw, 5760px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Phoebe and the car she was interested in<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nBeing in a good shape helped Phoebe land her part-time job as a car show girl or ambassador back when she was still studying. She participated in various car events, such as Super Import Nights, and represented different car clubs. Nowadays, the frequency is much lower, but she still works with car clubs sometimes. This includes Exotic Car Club, for which she has done yearly photoshoots for the past three to four years.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7389\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7389\" style=\"width: 5760px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7389\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5760\" height=\"3840\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965.jpg 5760w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A0965-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5760px) 100vw, 5760px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7389\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Phoebe reading a car magazine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nParticipating in all those car events sparked Phoebe\u2019s motivation to learn to drive her own car. \u201cI\u2019m the kind of person who likes to venture into everything out of curiosity, I just want to try every single thing - I might even consider getting a bike licence, just to try riding it and to know how it feels like,\u201d Phoebe added. However, she had not managed to complete her Practical Test (PT) because something came up during the day of the test. But this time, Phoebe is even more motivated to complete her PT and get a driving license, because\u2026 she got stalked a few times while using the public transport! \u201cPeople can follow me from Orchard Road all the way to my house, which is very crazy. He might stay near me but if it\u2019s more than 3 times already it cannot be a coincidence, right? And it is not just one person,\u201d recounted Phoebe.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7390\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7390\" style=\"width: 5760px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7390\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5760\" height=\"3840\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036.jpg 5760w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1036-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5760px) 100vw, 5760px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7390\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Phoebe inside the car<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nIt is now not just a matter of convenience or interest, but a matter of safety, for Phoebe to drive a car. This is why she was not only more motivated to complete her PT, but also to buy a new car. Thankfully, she remembered Carro because she used to work at Midview City, the same complex as Carro\u2019s office. She browsed through Carro\u2019s website and since she was nearby, she went down and checked out the car that she found on the website for a test-drive. \u201cI\u2019m loving the service which Carro has given me so far. The car for my test-drive was fantastic, it was very sleek and classy,\u201d she said.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7387\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7387\" style=\"width: 5760px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7387\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"5760\" height=\"3840\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2.jpg 5760w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/4N8A1054-2-630x420.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 5760px) 100vw, 5760px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7387\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Phoebe with the car she tested<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<em>Carro wishes Phoebe a safe journey and more exciting car experiences in the future!<\/em>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Convenient.
