I’m a university student studying Computer Science in Canada, and I’m currently doing an exchange term in Japan at Kyoto University. I’m a little bit quiet and shy by nature, but I also really enjoy meeting new people, and I think I’m pretty easy to get along with :) I really enjoy learning new things, and especially languages, because I love the feeling of understanding something I didn’t before. My Chinese (Mandarin) is fairly advanced, my Japanese is at an intermediate level, and I know very basic Korean as well. I’m living in a university dorm right now so unfortunately I’m not able to host, but if you’d like to hang out feel free to message me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new friends and learn about what life is like in different parts of the world! I like learning about the experiences of people from different backgrounds — from different places, different cultures, various interests, and so on

Interests

• dancing
• computer science
• learning languages
• learning new things
• k-pop

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled alone in China for two weeks, mostly communicating using Chinese that I studied on my own!

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m happy to help with English and share about what life is like in Canada! And although I’m not a native speaker of Chinese, my level is fairly high, so if you’re a beginner studying Chinese I can help with that as well

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’d be happy to talk with you in English (my native language) or answer any questions you might have about the language! I’m a friendly person and I think I’m pretty easy to get along with, so hopefully we can become friends :)
