About Me

Open minded, talkative, cheerful, love to explore and discover the world.

I just finished my one year of exchange in Dundee, Scotland, and I explored Europe a lot. Now I am back to my hometown, Hong Kong, and I'd like to help others find the hidden treasure in my own city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The most important thing in travelling to me, is to understand the culture and history of the place, so as to widen my horizon. Interacting with people from the place is the best way to understand the place, and vice versa. Couchsurfing gives me the chance to communicate with different people with different experiences. It is always pleasant to listen to stories and exchange ideas about differences in cultures. Most importantly, make friends with wonderful people around the globe.

I look forward to meeting you all!

Interests

I have a pretty wide range of interests, including singing, camping, hiking, table tennis, basketball, cycling, travelling, photography, film shooting, video editing, musical, playing guitar, eating... you name it. and I'm really interested in learning languages.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love language exchange and I can teach Chinese (Cantonese and Mandarin) pretty well. I also worked as an English tutor so I can teach English as well (if you need it). I would also love to learn Spanish and German.
I also love sharing with people about Hong Kong and Asian culture. I can talk about anything, from little things like tying Chinese knots or how to use chopsticks, to bigger issues like politics or Chinese history.
