About Me

I'm a talkative introvert who has a passion for art, literature, classical music, languages and photography (and cats, to be honest). I am secretly an awkward person who has a Taoist mentality but my friends still love me, so I guess you will somehow find the charm too! Currently studying in Germany :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I make new friends and take nice pictures for them. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Successfully ordered pizza with my broken German!!!
or
Played with a street cat for three hours in a cold winter day!!! (while my date was sitting next to me feeling unbelievable)
or
Randomly asked beautiful people on the street if I could take a picture for them. And telling them they are beautiful. And didn't ask for their numbers afterwards.
or
Published an anthology for talented people who dream of becoming writers. And successfully promoted the book to major bookstores!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me your language. Tell me your home food recipes. Give me your money... Ok maybe not that one. If you have a piano I can teach you that (yep I'm that Asian who learnt piano since 5 and still hasn't become Lang Lang)! I am pretty good at drawing too (I always win in Pictionary; it counts right?).

And to be honest, you have to stop me from lecturing you for hours about the differences between Hong Kong and China if you happen to ask where I am from/if I am Chinese... Laws and politics huh. lol

P.S. If I share my food with you, it means I truly like you. For real.
