About Me

“ Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not. ” - Ralph Emerson

Hey guys welcome to my CS profile!

I believe CS is such a heart-warming community that gathers like-minded travellers and selfless hosts and to enlighten each other’s travelling experience more :)
It’s always the people you met on the journey which makes your travels more memorable ♥️

*** I AM NOT LOOKING FOR ANY RELATIONSHIP !!
(there are too many unpleasant messages that I receive recently so I hope to make it clear first~ )

I am still rather new in this CS community - I have stayed in 2 CS host’s place during my first solo trip in Europe last year and 2 other host’s place in Mexico this summer, that was an absolutely amazing experience so I hope to continue my travel in this way.

I am a Medical student from Hong Kong, hoping to broaden my horizons by taking adventures during travelling and making new friends during the journey. I am extroverted and love to talk to people, I hope to meet you soon!

Sadly, I am still a student and I live in my dorm in my university Hong Kong so I cannot really host, but I am up to hanging out with fun souls and have nice conversations with like-minded people all around the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are many ways to travel, whether for leisure and relaxation, entertainment and shopping, or simply to capture stunning views and enjoy delicious cuisine. However, what I truly seek through travel is to rid myself of narrow-mindedness, arrogance, and prejudice. By immersing myself in the beauty of the world's great landscapes, I am reminded of how small I am in this vast world, which humbles me and encourages me to keep learning. By chatting with people from all walks of life, I have come to understand that there are many different ways of living and approaching life's challenges, and I have learned not to ground myself in any one particular mindset. Finally, by embracing local cultures, I have learned to appreciate the diversity of our world, and to respect all people without passing judgement.

While benefiting from the hosts around the world, to get an immersive CS experience; I would also love to contribute to this community and help traveller who visit my city to get the best experience. It had been very good reflection for me as well - how should I promote my hometown as and where would a traveller be most interested in visiting. How I view my hometown, my friends and foreigners might get very different perspective which makes me intrigued.

Interests

I love to try all kinds of activities as well - yoga, hiking, bouldering, scuba diving, snorkelling, wakesurfing… you name it, I’m down to try it!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am recently reading books about self-care and philosophy. At this age, having been confused and lost, I am still searching for the meaning of life and learning to love myself more. And I absolutely found peace and wisdom in books and movies, I hope to get some nice recommendations too ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
