About Me
“Travelers never think that they are the foreigners.” - Mason Cooley
I love travelling and am interested in travel industry. I worked in a hostel in Taiwan for a month as ‘work exchange’. It's a really good experience and I enjoy chatting with new people.
I was an airline staff and worked in the Hong Kong International Airport ✈ I love this job because you can meet people from different countries everyday. It's challenging sometime but I learnt a lot.
In May 2018, I moved to London. I worked in a travel agency and organized tour groups from Asia to visit Europe.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
It's a great platform for travellers to exchange culture and languages, travel stories and new ideas. I believe that staying with locals is the best way to know about a country and culture.
Interests
I am a Linguistics graduate and enjoy learning new languages. Cantonese is my mother language and I can speak Mandarin and English as well. Korean and Spanish are on my list of self-learning.
I am interested in knowing new cultures and traditions. That's why I love travelling and chatting with locals.
I love dancing, especially in Contemporary and Modern Dance. Maybe we can share some experience with each other if you like dancing as well.
I like playing badminton. After stop playing for 10 years, I started to pick it up again.

I can share my travel and life stories to my hosts.
I have lived in two multicultural cities - Hong Kong and London and I can share their culture and traditions. I went to 17 countries by my own and I'm sure there are some interesting stories that my host will be interested in.
