I am a student at a Canadian university (UBC) and currently exchanging in London. I study maths and computer science (kinda spreading the stereotype😅).

I grew up in Shanghai, moved to Vancouver in 2015 and have lived there for 8 years. Now I am living in London for almost a year.

In the summer I want to explore Europe as much as I could and make new friends from around the globe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanna travel and make new friends from all around the world. And there's no better way to get to know someone than to stay with them in their house! It would allow me to be immersed in local cultures, and see what the local everyday life is like.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Probably studying abroad for a year in London? It's the first time I live by myself abroad for such a long time, and it has been an amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning new languages. I also love talking about philosophy, history, world view, etc (and just life in general).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Thoughts on all kinds of topics, interesting life stories, languages and cultures.
I am also more than willing to help with household duties and miscellaneous tasks :)
