CURRENT MISSION

I could work my life away, but why? I got things to do before I die!

ABOUT ME

Heya! I'm Tina! Currently residing in London, England after a years stint in China and other world wandering. I have one mantra for my life and I live it with passion: travel to stay sane. Not that I am crazy, more like, delightfully eccentric and a somewhat of a space cadet. Anyways, a list of things I like: having good friends everywhere, a good ipod playlist, wearing clothes that feel great and don't necessarily match, and eating everything grandma serves me.

Wishing you all happy, safe, and meaningful travels,

xoxo

Tina

PHILOSOPHY

So here is where I get deep? *breath in*
I used to live my life through the image of how I wanted to be, and through little life experiences and meaningful conversations, I am slowly learning not to live so much in the image of myself, but just to live. *exhale and bow*

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cannot currently host due to lack of home, therefore lack of sofa. I do attend meetings and love to meet random travelers for coffee and pretend I know where I am going in Central London while I stealthily read street markers around Trafalgar Square.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Free Huuuugggzzzzzz!!!!

Music, Movies, and Books

Favourite books: Lives of Girls and Woman by Alice Munro, All Families are Psychotic by Douglas Coupland, and...Harry Potter. Though I am kind of a book junkie. I will read ANYTHING.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Angkor Wat at sunrise. Google it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you: to make jiao zi (yummy Chinese dumplings), a whole vocabulary of bad words in other languages, to curl your hair, and natural remedies for a cold.

I want to learn...whatever you can teach me. More words for the bad word bank, how to play leap frog, how to make a delicious soup in the forest with nothing but a hollow stone and rotten tree bark.
