Overview
About Me
I'm always on the go Studied in Canada for the past 5 years, moved to Toronto and San Francisco before finally settling back in Hong Kong this spring.
I never really wanted to have an office job and I suck at working remotely 24/7, so
I recently launched my food tour business, Hong Kong Food Crawlers and I take travellers out to eat their way around in the city! Find out more here: www.hkfoodcrawlers.com
I also work freelance at an Italian olive oil company and do everything social media related for the brand.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I heard lots of great things about Couchsurfing from my friends so I decided to give it a shot - while I wasn't available to host, I reached out to several Couchsurfers who were visiting Hong Kong and we all went out to explore and eat our way around in my hometown! I didn't realize it at the time but that experience set the stones for something bigger - and Hong Kong Food Crawlers was born 2 years after!
I'm still traveling quite a lot lately, so I'm hoping to do a bit of surfing for my coming trips and meet more people from around the world!
Interests
Besides pigging out at restaurants and munching on street food, I love reading, and traveling (it's hard not to go travel when most of the flights flying out from Hong Kong are a lot cheaper!). I also love meeting new people from around the world and show them a different side of my city through my eyes and palette!
