An ordinary Chinese born in Burma (Myanmar) 🇲🇲who possesses intense wanderlust, currently residing in Singapore🇸🇬. I travel not because I am rich. You don’t have to be rich to travel well. I travel to find myself, to adventure and most importantly to get inspiration from people regardless of their nationalities, cultures, races and religions. I just love travelling. There is no specific word that can exactly and meaningfully describe how much i love it but i just love it.

To date, i have visited most of ASEAN countries only due to a lot of other circumstances that wouldn’t allow me to travel far. However, I believe my dream of travelling around the world will come true one day. “Dreams do come true”.
Feel free to contact me when you give a visit to Singapore or Myanmar. Willing to bring you around the city and share some travelling and food tips.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Previously I have used hostels while travelling, which has been fantastic and allowed me to meet people from all over the world who share my interest in travelling. However I also found that local people in many areas were brilliantly helpful, able to tell me about great things in the area, and even just teach me about the differences, great or small, in their lives compared to mine.
Meeting people like this is wonderful, and I hope that by using couchsurfing, I can add to my experiences.

Mutual learning : languages, cultures, religions..... etc etc . There are so many things to learn in life and why can't we just open our heart and be adventurous ? In my opinion, humans belong a kind of species that are naturally, continuously and unconsciously learning and teaching each other.
Of course, my willingness to contribute what i have.

Interests

Anything that is new and adventurous . Year 2016 is amazing year for me coz i found myself and my wanderlust. And i m continuing finding more and more about myself and others .
I like to write, yoga, swim, hang out with friends, making new friends, and more to find out....

P.S.: Do u guys think making penfriends is a good idea ? If yes, then we may have the similar interest. Handwritten letters are so rare nowadays. But I think they are so much more meaningful than a text, email, etc... They show that someone actually took the time of day to write something out for you and then deliver it, either in person or by snail mail. I love getting letters in mail. It's a wonderful feeling to open the envelope, pull out the sheet and read it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Eat, pray, love by Elizabeth Gilbert (the very first book that cultivated my reading habit)
Big magic by Elizabeth Gilbert
Finding it by Cora Carmack
Holy cow: An Indian Adventure by Sarah Macdonald
More coming .....( as i just started picking reading as one of my hobbies)
