About Me

CURRENT MISSION

There's close to 7 billion people in the world. Everybody has a story to tell. I want to travel to hear these stories.

ABOUT ME

I like meeting people from different backgrounds and I like to hear about their stories, I'm fascinated about how people's experiences shape their opinions and the way they view the world. I love food so much that if I don't have it I would die. Being brought up on an asian diet I really like asian cuisines, especially vietnamese and thai. I like being active and prefer to play sports than sit and read a book, although I do find great pleasure in a good read.

I have lived in a few cities, namely Melbourne, Macau, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Edinburgh. Right now I am in London.

PHILOSOPHY

"We don't inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children"

Travel, but travel lightly

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In London I live in a small flat with flat mates, so unfortunately I am not able to host any more. I love travelling so I hope that one day when I go to other places, someone will be kind enough to let me stay in their home and share with me a bit of their daily life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't really done much with the cs community so am looking for more ways to experience Couch Surfing.

Interests

I used to play a lot of football/soccer, slowing down a little now that I'm getting older. In its place I've taken up salsa dancing (it's so fun!). I'm always planning my next trip, I would like to hike to base camp and travel south america in the near future. I like to make things (crafty things like sewing) and DIY. Yes I enjoy putting ikea furniture together. I like languages and I'm always looking for opportunities to learn and practise.
