I'm currently a student at the University of Sydney, studying international business, finance, Chinese and French (I have to decide on my majors soon...still putting it off). I also work part time teaching English as a second language, which I really enjoy, so if you need any help with your English I'd be happy to help! I'm half Chinese and half Greek, hence the long last name and ethnically ambiguous appearance :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I recently returned from a trip to China and realized I've been traveling wrong this whole time! Meeting locals and making friends is what it's all about :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: led zeppelin, the kinks, the smiths, the beatles, pink floyd, david bowie...sometimes sonic youth. Lots more random music but those come to mind at the moment.
Recently I've been reading children's books in Mandarin and French, so not a lot of exciting literature there. My favourite book is "the consolations of philosophy" by Alain De Botton.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked along an unrestored portion of the Great wall of China, alone. It was a bit dangerous now that I look back at it. But hey, it was probably my favourite travel experience so far :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

If for some reason you find yourself in desperate need of someone who can use a turntable and piping bag... I shall save the day! Cake decorating. It's a niche skill, I know.
