“Traveling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta

After countless years travelling across more than 100 countries I have many stories to tell

Some good stories, some bad. That's life though. Full of ups and downs

Traveling for me is an addiction. An escape from reality. An overwhelming love of maps from a young age and a desire to explore uncharted territories.

I am a fun loving guy, friendly enough to be your friend in your city. I love to travel new places and interact with locals and make some videos. I’m always full of energy and I like sharing this with people.

Are you Australian you ask? I was born in Australia, in a multicultural city called Melbourne and I lived in London too and my family is from Hong Kong and China. I have friends from around the world and enjoy interacting with people from all cultures and backgrounds.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I discovered Couchsurfing while doing my first Europe trip. Since then, it has been an incredible part of my life with many of my most cherished experiences/friends.

I have this desire to travel and meet new people from different origins, there was no option better than Couchsurfing to meet open minded people like me!

兴趣

I believe there’s some real magic in travelling and meeting new people that are welcome to share their culture with you. I’m also keen on photography and football.

教，学，和分享

I can teach what the Australian accent sounds like

I can teach you my Asian culture - we can listen to kpop or Cantonese songs. I love cooking and can cook Chinese stir fries and a good vegetarian pasta

When it comes to sharing the only thing that can be shared best is experience
