About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discovering Hong Kong, finishing up my PhD, pause to tell stories and take photos along the way.

ABOUT ME

Travelling the world turned me into a social scientist (or something like that) but it mostly showed me the way I love to live and enjoy the world. Truth is, I love to hear people's stories and this platform is a gem and a safe space for that.

PHILOSOPHY

Panta rei?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first host fell asleep the night I arrived and I had to sleep in a Motel. I did not expect to spend the first night of my holiday in a Motel, but it was not too bad (just kidding). After this little incident we became the best of buddies and I'm looking forward to seeing him and his amazing friends again :D If you never take any risks, you'll never get anywhere outside your little comfortable world...I need something more than that!

Interests

I'm very fond of Chinese Language, Culture, History, Politics and Arts. I'm also very passionate about Social Sciences, Ecology, Environment and Sustainable living. I've lived in the amazing city of Beijing for almost 3 years and now I'm a PhD student in HK.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've spent a week working on a farm in China, in the amazing region of Sichuan through WWOOF. Those guys welcomed me with open arms and treated me as a member of their family... I have a chinese family now nd I'll visit them asap :) Rural China is the China I prefer...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to cook some Italian dishes, I can give you Chinese lessons and if you have an ukulele we can set up a jam session! I also LOVE street photography and I own a lovely mirrorless Fuji.
