About Me

Half Anglo-Australian, half Hong Kong Chinese backpacker from Melbourne, Australia 🇭🇰🇦🇺

Keen to share experiences and better understand local culture 😄 message me if you would like to host me, or even if you would like to just meet up and hang out in Melbourne or abroad!

I'm a final year medical student at the moment who is on a gap year before graduating 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When running a medical volunteering trip in the Philippines, we were graciously hosted in Northern Samar by some of the mothers we were educating about wound care, hand hygiene and medication usage.

The experience was genuinely eye opening and a great opportunity to see both how different our living circumstances were, but also how similar our goals and values were as people.

I would love to share cultures and experiences in the same way, and make lifelong friends in the process!
