ABOUT ME

Hiya,

My name is joey; nice to meet you all~~ This is my 1st year in Berlin and I am doing my master in art therapy. I would like to visit a lot places and of course to host fellow surfers. Enjoy meeting new folks and have a good chat about everything and anything!

Let me tell you a bit about myself. I am a chinese american who was born and raised in hong kong. I moved to los angeles when I was a teenager and have lived in chicago, georgia (the country), japan. Traveling is my passion; I have been to new zealand, fiji, tibet, cambodia, vietnam, turkey, armenia and some other places.

Look forward to meeting you guys soon!

cheers!
