Hey there I’m Ingrid. I’m from Shanghai but currently studying at an international high school in Bratislava. This September
I will be leaving for the US. I love traveling and meeting new people, annnd I rly wish to use the opportunity while I’m still in Europe to travel as much as I can.
I would appreciate some guided tours, deep conversations at coffee houses, or learning about ur culture. Big fan of museums so take me take me :D annnd if there is art exhibition in town, temporary show or permanent gallery, pls let me know. I don’t always need a couch to crash on tho.
If you have questions, dm me on Instagram
Ins: innyzhang (please send msg only to this account)

It might take a while for me to reply sorry😅😅

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting souls and travel like a local :) as I said staying over wouldn’t be needed most of the time, but if I do need one, it’ll be appreciated as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies I love are Before Sunrise, Never Let Me Go, One Day, and a lot of thriller/crime/psychological movies etc etc. And Ghibli animations. It should be a whole separate genre.
Series I love are Friends, How I met your mother, modern family, Skins, SKAM, Rick and Morty etc etc etc.
I also quite enjoy documentaries
But overall, doesn’t have a specific taste I think.
Most recently I’m watching The Times It Takes (el tiempo que te doy) and trying to write reviews cuz it’s such a poetic and relatable piece. Highly recommend👍🏻

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living and volunteering in Australia for three weeks by myself when I was 16 :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share some knowledge about Chinese culture 😃I know it’s spreading probably everywhere and people may know a lot already, but I guarantee you will learn new thing from me cuz I’ve been exchanging and teaching these in my school as well.
If you are in Bratislava, we could hangout for sure. I love meeting new people. You can also meet my friends! They are extremely nice people and have helped me a lot while I’m here (also lots of cats and dogs with us).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I sing and I play the guitar. But I’m amateur with the guitar and only play what I like hehe. I could also cook or help cook. Im a little OCD sometimes (just using it as an exaggeration no intention of generalizing the disorder), so I might organize ur cupboard or dishwasher if I stayed over😅😅.
