Hello! I’m a passionate traveler and lifelong learner currently based in the beautiful city of Coimbra, Portugal. I love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. When I’m not exploring new places, you can find me enjoying a good book or trying out new recipes. I believe that travel is the best way to broaden one’s horizons and I’m excited to connect with fellow travelers on Couchsurfing. Looking forward to hosting you and sharing stories!”
I major in Portuguese and I'm from China. This year, I want to explore Europe. 😊
I like to keep my room tidy, so when I stay in other people's homes I make a point of keeping them tidy too.

I excel in playing piano, you can see the video of this link following.

My portuguese name is Lucas. It's easier to pronounce, right?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the best things I’ve ever done was embarking on a solo backpacking trip across China. It was a journey of self-discovery and growth. I met incredible people, experienced diverse cultures, and saw breathtaking landscapes. This adventure taught me resilience, broadened my perspective, and fueled my love for travel. It’s an experience I’ll always cherish and it’s one of the reasons why I joined Couchsurfing - to continue learning, sharing, and connecting with fellow travelers
