Hi, I am Angel, and 24 years old but turning 25 soon :) I love to travel, have developed a passion for travel since I was 10, and went to the US for a month! After that, I have lived in 4 different countries and traveled to 15+ countries with New Zealand being my home base now. What I love about traveling the most is to meet different people, explore different cultures and learn different languages.

When I am not traveling, I'm mostly working and saving so I can travel more haha. I also have a travel blog on the side, nothing fancy or enough to fund my travel but it is a hobby and I love sharing my stories and helping others travel better :) I also recently started teaching English/ Chinese online! I love love love to socialize and meet new people around the world. As I believe the world is way too big to settle in one place :) I find by talking to different people, you learn so much more than reading it off the books or internet, travel is a rich experience and I feel very lucky to be able to do it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started my solo travel this month in Europe, and have already met some really good travelers along the way from using different meet-up apps. And I've heard so many good things about couch-surfing, never had the courage to sign up before for different reasons but I then thought why not. I love meeting new people, sharing stories, and exchanging cultures. I always think it’s quite amazing that we’re all human kinds but the way we love are all so different! So thought what's better than staying with a local to truly experience the local culture?
