CURRENT MISSION

Travel, Eat, Sleep, SMILE!

ABOUT ME

Hm... I'm a friendly city girl who loves a bit of everything! My favorite pastime... Coffee+Cake+Conversation. I love spending time to get to know someone and their real life... no superficial stuff please! I will be graduating with a BA in Sociology and go into Global Public Health for masters in a year or two. I am very approachable and friendly. One thing you will find me doing... is smiling! My coworkers thought I was crazy when I walk into work at 6AM with the biggest smile and have it last until 6pm!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will worry about itself!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been trying to get my first CS host, but everyone is travelling or back home from the end of school term! OH SNIFFLES! >.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met some of THE nicest and most hospitable people ever! As one of my dear CS mates states it... it balances out the whole world by passing on LOVE to another CSer then passing on LOVE to the next and so on! =) I have to admit that I didn't expect to have such a great time when I first tried it out... but it's so fun and adventurous!

Interests

sing, read, run, nerd it out anywhere I go =)

Honestly for fun... I like to go jogging (If I'm in NYC... then it's Williamsburg Bridge into Chinatown and up into 34th street Herald Square... Since I'm in Oxford, I've jogged to Oxford City Centre 6:30 in the morning, down Oxford Canal, to the University Parks).

On the following day... because of soreness/laziness/amazing weather... I just sit in the sun and read and tan. (too bad the good Oxford weather comes and goes)

I also LOVE karaoke, which you can find everywhere in NYC, but nowhere in Oxford... =(

Starting to learn how to cook too! Starting off with korean food... My parents cook amazing Chinese food, so it would be a joke if I attempted to make a Chinese dinner for them!
