ABOUT ME

This is Crystal from Hong Kong, a cosmopolitan city that never sleeps and home of 7 million people.

I'm young and will always be young, energetic and passionate about travelling. I don't see myself in Hong Kong as I love adventures too much! I wanna explore the other side of the world, the further the better! The beauty in life is you never know what would happen in your life. For some reason, London was my home in my early 20s. Been going around but London has remained my top city in the world.

PHILOSOPHY

1.Whatever you do, do with confidence.

2.Do not regret. Regret is the most sorry feeling and horrible self punishment.

3.Love myself, be happy and laugh as much as I can everyday

4.Anything in life is possible. If you really want something, you can make it happen no matter what. If you want it, ask for it and get it! Dont wait!

5. No reasons to be upset as there is always a silver lining in any situations. Just let go of things not meant to be for you.

6.People come and people go. Don't get too attached to anything, anywhere and anyone. Learn to rather enjoy the moments :D

7.Travel with an open mind. Be open and flexible to new experiences.

8. I love being a solo backpacker as I believe that travelling on my own doesnt mean being alone all the time and feeling lonely!!!! Couchsurfing has been making my journey fantastic and beautiful!!!!! People make the countries different :))))

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No doubt it has been a very positive experience to me! I am so confident with couchsurfing! People in this community are so different,so generous and approachable ;)

Interests

There are 4 things I couldn't miss in my life: cooking,shopping,photographing and ofcoz travelling!!

I care a lot about food presentation as it's incredibly important to make the dish more appetizing. I love so much lovely and stylish tableware.
