About Me

Easy-going, love travelling but haven't done enough of it. Nervous about solo travel, trying to explore more!

Spent an amazing 9 months in New Zealand on a working holiday once, and loved all the silly, fun, thoughtful experiences we had with people from all over the globe. Always fun times to be had.

Unfortunately I had been idle on CS in the last few years (sad lack of travels). I'd been hosted couple of times in NZ on an old account. Always been interested to try it more! And I'd love to meet more people in new places. Please feel free to say hello!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So I'm pretty new to CS, and hope to explore new places with travellers or locals. I enjoy learning about different places and cultures through the locals' views, everybody has different stories, and it's great to keep the stories going.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Risked being devoured by mosquitoes to see an absolutely dark sky packed with stars in Vanuatu. Small South Pacific island, zero light pollution, no electricity, no TV/phones etc. Had a blast with the locals.

Also, skydiving. ^.^

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure what I can teach, but I love to learn things about/from people. Can offer crash courses on Mandarin/Chinese language too. Happy to share and learn about cultural differences, travel stories and any topic under the sun really. There is so much that I do not know!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laid-back company and stories over a drink, food, or walks.
I also pledge to be a neat and adaptable guest. Whether hosts can spend time with me or not, still grateful.
