About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I love travelling! I hope to know more about the world and explore different kinds of culture.

ABOUT ME

I am a MPhil student in Linguistics studying at the Chinese University of Hong Kong now. After I have flied to Japan for my first time of travelling several years ago, I love travelling more and more! Due to my research career right now, I always need to fly here and there to attend research schools and conferences. So I hope to grasp these chances to travel around the world as much as possible, as long as I am now still under 25 years old! Besides, I love learning languages (though still cannot speak very well) and love to know about the cultures and stories behind these languages!

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard, play hard!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My friends who know I like travelling introduce the CS Project to me. Thanks to them for introducing this website to me!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am looking forward to starting my first time couchsurfing in Europe. Can anyone give me my first couchsurfing experience?

Interests

I like Linguistics very much of course!! Apart from my academic studies, for my personal hobbies, I love music! I enjoy playing the piano and listening to Christian hymns. I like reading books too (though I cannot read much now due to my busy studies). And of course, travelling, learning languages and being exposed to different cultures are also my interests.
