About Me

I graduated from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities in May 2016 with a Psychology (B.S) degree. >>I love people, along with many other species of animals (the wolf-dog family, monkeys, cats, jellyfish, etc.) I enjoy having conversations with people from different backgrounds, and I learn from experiences rather than textbooks. I think there's a lesson to learn from everyone and every event that happened in our lives. As long as I live, I will be learning. So be my teacher and show me something new, or be my pal and experience something together.
I love traveling- it's about the cultures and diversities, but even more so about the unusual moments that can't last forever. I love the excitement and sentiments that I collect and hold close to my heart. The transient moments that changes our lives for good.
I love having intellectual conversations about pointless things. I enjoy humming tunes and dancing when nobody's looking or listening.
My core values in life are courage and love. The rest of things either come along with them or are still being figured out.
My favorite people reminds me of sunshine, and I want to be my favorite person. :)
Enough rambling... Until I think of better things to say.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I want to meet amazing people, have great interactions, and explore the cultures of each place I go through the locals' eyes.
I also want to open up my arms for those who are traveling to Minneapolis.

Music, Movies, and Books

The best I can do is to throw a few random artist band names-
Pink Floyd, Joy Division, St Vincent, Fiona Apple, Flaming Lips, Meat Puppets, Eric Clapton, David Bowie...
Guilt pleasure-- binge watching super corny movies while eating a whole jar of ice cream.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hahhh all my memories are like my sweet little kiddos. Don't have me pick my favorites now.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to think of myself of a learner and beginner for life. Humility and curiosity are what keep me stupid and hungry all the time. I learn from experience, through great people I encounter, from failures and regrets, and from nature.
Right now just learning to love myself, being present, and productive.
I can teach you some Chinese if you'd like ;)
I have a big bag of perspectives, stories, and electrically charged neurons to share with you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Meh... I'm not too shabby at cooking. So if you are craving something in particular, let me know.
