About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as much of the world as I can, and stay young and free

ABOUT ME

I'm intelligent and sassy. My friends would say I'm also very mature and independent. I am second-generation American, born and raised, with Chinese heritage. This is my third and last year living in Europe, because I'm ready to go back home to America. I lived in Hong Kong for two years before I moved to Barcelona, where I worked/enjoyed life for a year and learned Spanish. My Spain adventure continued in the beautiful of San Sebastian, where I am doing another Master program. Now I am doing the final year of my program, in Nancy, France, a tiny city in the region of Lorraine.

PHILOSOPHY

Every day is a gift, so there's always something to be happy about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf every where I travel, and I hosted many travellers in my home in Barcelona.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did a couchsurfing Euro trip during Christmas 2013, in which I couchsurfed at each of my seven cities. It was the best experience of my life. After that, I can't imagine ever traveling again to a new city without connecting with couchsurfers there. There are a lot of good people in the world.

Interests

I play the violin somewhat seriously, and I have played for 13 years. I love playing Dance Dance Revolution, and I played a lot in college. I love reading for hours on end. Finally, I always enjoy a game of billiards (American pool).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 17 I performed as a soloist with a full orchestra Lalo's "Symphonie Espagnole", a 40-minute violin concerto with five movements. Looking back, I have no idea how I was able to memorize the whole piece nor how I could stand on the stage for that long without tiring and without making any major mistakes.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Belgium, China, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States
