Hello there! This is Emily from Hong Kong. I consider myself a people person who is always curious to learn about people's stories and different cultures so CS is a perfect platform for me to meet interesting people like you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

----------- 2017 Summer -----------
This June 2017, I will be travelling around Thailand, Myanmar and South India with my friend, Angel. We are desperately looking for places to stay (but only female hosts this time :P) around the countries for budget-travel's sake, do hit us up if you are available :) We need places to stay for Yangon, Chennai, Pondicherry, Madurai, Bengalore and Mumbai. We will be visiting local NGOs in India to raise public awareness towards environmental protection and women's rights once we head back to Hong Kong. Would love to be inspired by amazing couchsurfing hosts from all around the world!

----------- 2018 Summer -----------
I'm currently on a Trans-Siberian railway trip, starting from Hong Kong → Beijing → Harbin → Manzhouli and crossed the Russian-Chinese border about two weeks ago. I have stayed for a couple of days in Chita, Irkutsk, Olkhon Island, Novosibirsk, St. Petersburg, as well as Kyiv in Ukraine and Helsinki in Finland. I’m currently in Moscow and will be visiting Astana and Almaty in Kazakhstan in a week!

Drop me a message if you're interested and free to meet up :) Would love to share with you some Hong Kong and Chinese cultures and customs, as well as my couchsurfing experiences and fun time in my travels!
