Présentation
À propos de moi
I love traveling, I do spontaneous trips and meet new people whenever I have the chance.
I'm a laid-back person, I like hearing/sharing interesting stories, as well as having different ideas/perspectives on stuff (movies, tv shows, politics, science, social issues...). I generally like having fun conversations.
I was born and raised in Hong Kong. I moved abroad to Edinburgh when I was 18. I studied neuroscience and recently graduated from university. I'll go to Amsterdam in September for a Master's degree in behavioural neuroscience.
My dream is to become a successful researcher and to unravel how memory works.
I wanna try different beers/whiskies around the world!
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
I've known CS for a while but never tried it. Now, it's a great time to start meeting new friends!
It's simply intriguing to discover new places and immerse myself into different cultures. I can also share my own experience as well!
Centres d'intérêt
Summer: Hiking, walking around the city, chilling and having a few drinks in the evening :)
Winter: I'm an indoor guy. Watching good movies and tv shows (and over-interpreting every scene), playing guitar (and singing awfully), cooking, reading. Again, chilling and having a few drinks in the evening :)
I like photography, I've a nice camera and I bring it with me all the time. I mainly do landscapes and I can show you many stunning pictures!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres
Music: depends on what I'm doing. I like listening to electronic while studying, and to pop/rock/acoustic while commuting. Most of the time I just play random playlists to see what surprises me.
[Tame Impala, College, Coldplay, Early-Avril Lavigne, Ed Sheeran, London Grammar...]
Movies: psychological thriller, sci-fi, movies that make me think, movies with great cinematography
[Mr. Nobody, Drive, Inside Out, 500 days of Summer, The Lobster,
Ruby Sparks, Room...]
TV: high quality dramas
[Mr. Robot, Better Call Saul, BrBa, Fringe, House of Cards, GoT...]
