About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy my life to the fullest with no regrets by travelling around the world!

ABOUT ME

I love travelling. Travelling is the best thing in life. I want to enjoy my life to the fullest and travelling is definitely the best way to do it. Meeting different people, seeing different countries, learning different culture, and creating new stories with everyone on my trips are just AMAZING!

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy my life to the fullest with no regret. Live every day happily as if it's the last one. Travelling around the world is an amazing endless life lesson.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have heard a lot of great stories about CS from people I met on my trips. Finally, a couple I met in Krakow that have done surfing for years refer me to start here.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have done some homestays in Burma, Laos and Slovenia. And they are amazing! So much better than staying in hotels or hostels. But I haven't done couch surfing through this yet. Can't wait to start!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am achieving my dream right now. I have started travelling with my soulmate since April, 2014. I got splashed at the water festival in Burma, partied with villagers at a wedding in Laos, met most of the Yunnanese minorities at the horse-racing festival in China, did horse riding and lived with nomads in gers in Mongolia, saw the wax body of Lennin in Moscow, looked at the inscriptions of prisoners at war in Krakow, hiked in the beautiful High Tatras in Slovakia, partied with Serbians in Belgrade, learnt about the sad history of Sarajevo, did a great homestay in a new friend's house in Slovenia...
I have seen so much, met so many people and learnt so much every day on my trip! And I am travelling in South America now. And hopefully I will go on and on...

Teach, Learn, Share

I love sharing my stories of travelling, my thoughts and anything I know with other people. You just have to stop me if I talk too much. But I love listening to stories of others as well. You can learn so much from listening to others. Exchanging stories with others is one of the most interesting things. I can teach you some Chinese if you are interested. You can teach me your language. It's fun to teach and learn.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook for my hosts if they want. Share my travel experience with them and tell them our life stories. I can also tell them more about Hong Kong, China and the Asian culture. My husband and I have travelled to many different countries, we love to share our interesting stories!!!
