I’m Helen and I was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. I recently graduated and started work as a software engineer in Seattle! In my free time, I like to volunteer at animal shelters, listen to Jpop, edit YouTube videos and call my mom.
My friends would describe me as a bubbly, energetic person with a cracked sense of humour. I hope to make some new friends on Couchsurfing and learn about your culture! ❤️

Interests

I love shopping for clothes and jewelry (Y2K has me in a chokehold 😩) and searching for the best strawberry shortcake 🍰❤️ While I don’t really drink, I’m looking for some people to go to cool bars, clubs, and karaoke with!! カラオケに行きましょう！！I’m currently watching Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood for the first time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a native English speaker and also speak a bit of Mandarin and Japanese. I’m learning Japanese right now and would love to practice with you! I can cook a bit so if you’re okay with mid Chinese food and western cuisine I would love to make dinner every night. If you’re curious about software engineering or bunnies, those are two areas I have a decent amount of knowledge about 😸
