About Me

Hi, I am a British Born Scottish Chinese citizen that likes to fulfil ambitions to travel the world and meeting new friends. Over the past 2 years i have built my restaurant business in Glasgow, making Dim Sum and authentic Chinese food to the public. I find myself working far too hard which resulted in not having enough social time to meet new friends and also time to travel. Now I have everything set up, I can pursue my dream and travel and meeting new friends. My personality trait is outgoing and has a friendly demeanor.

My Hobbies are going to the Gym, play football, eating well, socialise over a few drinks and always keen to learn new things/adventures. I am afraid of heights, so anything to do with jumping off cliffs or planes is definitely a no go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been told by a lot of my work friends that couch surfing is a great way to meet local friends. I am travelling alone, so having someone to show me their culture and educate me on the local knowledge during my adventure would benefit me and also put my mind at ease and allow me to settle.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kinds of Music but mostly indie and Hip hop and Rap.

My favourite movie would be the Godfather trilogy

My current book I am reading is Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshall. But The Beach by Alex Garland is a good read and could be my favourite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Building a business/team and making it successful was my biggest reward I have done myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to learn new culinary skills whilst I am travelling in South East Asia. Keen to teach my cooking to people who are eager to learn.

I love keeping fit, so keeping my body in shape and play football with kids could be my other/next ambition.
