About Me

(Last updated on 8/6/2024)
My dear CS friends, before you text me/reply my messages, please know that CS for me is…
**** Not Tinder****Not Airbnb
****NOT a place to make money
❌Dating, ❌Sexual activity, ❌Commercial stuffs ❌Freeloaders

(Due to some roommate’s issues, 🥲Unfortunately, I can’t host guests in this moment, BUT, we can always hangout together! And feel free to ask me any questions regarding 🇭🇰)

😄My principle in my life: Treating others as you want to be treated

✨😍Starting from December, I will write a poem for my host on the CS reference❤️

Born and raised in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 🇭🇰🇭🇰

***Currently only accept the emergency CS/last minute stay request. With my limited resources, I will host the people who hosted Hongkonger first.

⭐️What is your dream?

My dream is to live a life that I will remember.

🌙Traveling is a journey to grow. Solo trip, the less you bring on a trip, the more you gain.
Travel like a native there.

🌸I worked in three NGOs before. And I worked overseas, in Thailand and Greece.
🌸I love volunteering, and projects about education and the environment are my favorite.
🌸I founded a company with my classmates when I was 17, for more, please Google 「JA Company」 「Hong Kong」 「REPEAT」

I love children and animals, I have a nine years old brother, and I love him so much! ❤️❤️❤️ I used to keep a dog for more than 12 years!

🌸Love nature, stars, art, movies, poems, literature, party and ADVENTURE!

❤️Btw, I worked in Disneyland before and I was a cast member there! Inbox me if you are a Disneyland fan too! 💜

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

**** This is Couchsurfing here, Not Tinder****

Treat others the way you want to be treated.

Getting to know more people
Making new friends from all over the world
Stay young. Chilling and exploring
****(I DON'T COPY AND PASTE THE MESSAGE TO EVERY HOST! IT IS ANNOYING TO MISRECOGNIZE AS TYPING A COPY MESSAGE. JUST DON" T SIMPLY DECLINED THE REQUEST FOR NO REASON)****
(It takes nearly 20 minutes for me to send every request on CS.) 🥺

***I am not here for free accommodation or to take any advantage. ***
I am very willing to share about my own culture and hang out! I am always welcome to pay for any electricity/ food/ petrol bill)
***No shared bed please, I don't feel comfortable sharing the same bed with others***
YOU don't need to worry about safety, I verified my government ID, as you can see from my profile. ;)
