CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world

ABOUT ME

I'm just a typical girl who loves to travel, meet new people, discover new cultures, and take pretty pictures to remember my travels. I try to enjoy all my traveling experiences, both good and bad. I'm a bit of a travel addict. I start looking at maps on the plane before I even get back home to plan my next trip. My dream job is to be a travel photographer, but for now, I'll focus on beautifying people's smiles. I try to stay positive and calm in all situations.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest because life is short.

"I'll go out there and make my mistakes. I'll fall down, get hurt, cry, laugh, love, and get back up. I'll stand on the highest mountaintop and go into the deepest caverns. I'll roam across the world, visit the moon and swim in outer space. I'll let my imagination run wild and let my spirit soar. Why? Because when my life flashes before my eyes in those final moments, I want to have something worthwhile to watch, with plenty of love and laughter, good times and bad. I don't want to regret a thing and I plan not to. Remember, it's not usually the things you do that you regret, it's the things you don't do and leave unsaid. Laugh out loud. Cry in the rain. Love with all your heart and soul. Get hurt. Tell the truth. Go crazy. But never forget that you only get one shot. One shot at this day, one shot at this minute. One shot at this age. One shot at life. So make sure your life is one you will enjoy watching in your final moments."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wanted to use CS over hostels because I figure it is a very good way to meet local people and have another perspective regarding the place that I'm going to. In that sense, traveling won't just be sightseeing touristy places but will be an experience by itself.

Interests

Traveling, of course =) Outside of being a traveling addict, I also love photography, hiking, and almost any outdoor activities. I love making good food for others as well.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a pretty decent cook, and I'm fluent in Cantonese if you want to learn some. I guess I can also give you some dental advice.
