ABOUT ME

- Open-minded, adventurous and respectful. Happy to accept new challenges and eager to try.

- Freedom is the most important thing in my life. Not only the physical freedom but the true freedom of the mind.

- Love animals very much especially cats.

- Love to be with people who I feel comfortable both talking with and being quiet together.

- Love outdoor activities like camping, hiking, swimming, diving (my new favourite)

- Stubborn on photography. Will not give up until I get that one photo.

- Trying different food when travelling is one of my must-do-thing.

PHILOSOPHY

Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I met a HK host in Tai O in Hong Kong. He was hosting a Italian guy and taking him around the city. We then went together and brought that guy to have HK style hotpot and visit the Peak. It is the first time I participated in CS and I do feel that it's a very interesting experience! I am inspired by the idea of CS, which create a world of mutual trust.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I would say not a beginner anymore, if for a surfer. I really love to host someone and show them my city. It's a pity that I still haven't got the right place to host. I have received so many kindness when I travelled through couchsurfing and I will definitely return the favor to anyone who are in need when I got the place. I promise:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Starting to use couchsurfing. It brought me so many unforgettable memories. I met so many amazing people and every single encounter is an unique and cherish story.

To add one more: after sauna in the northernmost city in Finland, I was staying outside In the nature, waiting for the northern light when it was -40 degree and I only had a towel wrapping around me!

Being at the northern most point in EU.

Found 1 pound ticket to travel from London to Edinburgh and return!

Jumping in the Baltic Sea in a deserted island in Finland

To be continued...

Teach, Learn, Share

Maybe I can teach you a little bit about cooking, drawing and photographing. I can also tell you about many surprising facts in China... Or I can tell you how to be a good cat slave.

I'd love to learn everything that I don't know.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook some real Chinese food for you and I am happy to share my story with you:)
