About Me

Hello everyone, I'm a university student in the UK and a massive language enthusiast. I'm already semi-fluent in French which I'm currently hoping to perfect, and I am very interested in travelling to Scandinavian countries, where a lot of my international friends live. I also write a lot of songs so if you are interested in music production and song-writing we can exchange some ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan to travel the world, meet new friends, practice languages and exchange cultures while I still have the time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sang my original rap on stage in front of 600 people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help with English and Cantonese and Mandarin. I also know a lot of French but sadly I don't speak it 100% fluently. I am still trying to perfect it, and if you speak another language I wouldn't say no to learning a bit of that as well!

I can help you with a bit of maths and physics, and perhaps some music theory as well.

If you are a songwriter like me we can share ideas and talk about how we can improve our songs. I'm also a pianist so if you have a piano, I can play some cool pieces if you want to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

The British/Hong Kong cultures, some politics, my own songs, tips and thoughts about language learning, life, etc.

And I can cook as well.

Countries I’ve Visited

China, Estonia, Finland, Japan, Liechtenstein, Malaysia, Romania, Russian Federation, Scotland, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan
