About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Spiritual instead of Muscles

ABOUT ME

I'm a happy, optimistic, open minded, friendly and I'm quite fearless except cockroaches. Like to meet people from different backgrounds, have a tea/coffee and chat about anything.

I don't smoke tobacco, I drink a little , and I eat everything!

I'm gay but I'm not into the scene.

I'm not a party animal, I prefer a tea or a meal at home with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Trust is beautiful.

We're on earth to learn and to share.

Everyday is a chance to learn from ourselves, from the nature, from our heart, from each other, to be a better soul.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If I'm your host, I like to take care of you, make you some food, or bring you to good and cheap places to eat. If I have time I can show you around, or at least give you lots of suggestions.

If I'm your guest, I like to cook for you, even for your friends, if you would let me touch your kitchen, and it would always be great to learn some cooking from others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met a lot of interesting people, some of them became friends of a life time, and I had extraordinary travel experience by knowing them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

By trusting a stranger in Peru (and with a language barrier), I went to a huge festival so away far from any major tourist destination, drunk on a rice paddy before midday, hit by a bull in a free range full fight, bitten by a condor, fell into the bull ring in the coliseum, and made a great friend with a Swedish, the only other foreigner attended the festival.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to cook. Coming from HK, of course I can make Chinese food with my eyes closed, and I'm interested in learning different kind of cuisine.

I love to cook for friends and my host.

I love to take pictures too, more of a reportage photographer myself. If you do as well, let's talk photos, or I can take photos for you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live in Saiwanho, Hong Kong Island, there're lots of public transport going everywhere.

My new couch is a bit short, so only short person can sleep there. But I have floor space in the living room (nothing is big in HK, it's also the dinning room), I've got mat and blanket, pillow and towel for you.

I usually sleep very late when I'm in HK, and I may not be able to show you around, but I have map and hiking, visiting information for you. We could dine out together or I make something at home to feed us.

I could only host one person at a time.
