Hi! My name is Joyce. I am an Asian-American who was born and raised in Oklahoma, USA. I discovered my love of travel when I spent a year abroad learning Chinese in Beijing, China, and have since backpacked across Southeast Asia and visited Korea. I am currently in a gap semester before I start attending medical school in the fall, and am looking for some adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, hearing other's stories, and just learning about lives that are so different (or similar!) than/to my own.

Interests

• tennis
• healthcare
• exploring nature
• exploring cities
• travel (obviously)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't say that I have done something completely amazing yet, but that's why I'm going into the medical field, so that I can help people in the future and really make a difference in others' lives. Travel is one way I can expand my horizons, and really get to know others from outside of America.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Organic Chemistry but I'm not entirely sure you'd be into that...

On the other hand: I have a decent grasp of Mandarin, Chinese, and I'd be happy to share! :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand
