Overview
About Me
I love to go travelling alone so that my travel schedule could be more flexible. I like taking photos and videos during travelling for record all the amazing moments in the trips. I always enjoy visiting or staying locals’ home as this could make me learn more about local culture and living style. When tourists see, travellers seek. I am definitely excited in seeking new and interesting experience during travelling.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to learn local culture and experience how locals live.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favourite book for the time being is “The Promise of a Pencil”. The author gives you lots of inspiration about what you can do in your life and guide you step by step towards success in completing your own dream mission by sharing his experience in quitting a high paid job to establishing a non profit organisation for offering education chances to children in developing areas.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I quitted my job to start my journey in India, Pakistan, Xinjiang. During the trekkkng in Pakistan, I became a friend with the porters. One of the porters invited me to his village as a guest and I agreed. He offered me the best food and accommodation that he had in the village although they didn’t earn much. I was so touched and impressed by how good he and other porters(from the same village) treated me. After I went back to Hong Kong, I decided to fly to Pakistan again with all the gifts including some from my friends, 40kg in total. I brought all the 40kg gifts from Hong Kong to Islamabad, Islamabad to Skardu, Skardu to the village, just to thank the porters (my friends) for treating me so well.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to speak Mandarin and Cantonese, how to write Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese. I can design a Chinese name for you, sharing the difference between Hong Kong and China.
