About Me

Currently I'm planning my first solo-trip in Chile in December! I haven't decided anything specific yet, but I'm thinking about staying there from Dec 16 until 31 before heading back to Canada, or maybe I will take a short trip to Mendoza, Argentina in between. I'm looking for someone (ideally someone who speaks both Spanish and communicative-level English) whom I can travel with for companionship and for safety reasons, and we can explore interesting places and enjoy the Christmas vibe in Chile/Argentina together. Please let me know if you have any new ideas! For accommodation, I will find a hostel or a Couchsurfer.

I'm an ambitious traveller and Workawayer who has been to many adventures! I went on a volunteer trip to Poland where I was teaching English in some English camps and local language schools last summer and it was absolutely amazing! I'm an ambitious traveller who's in love with European and Latin American cultures.

I was born in Hong Kong but I've been living in Canada for over 10 years. I'm a recent university graduate with a BA degree in English, and I'm planning to take a TESOL course in Canada or apply for the Master's program in teaching at University of Warsaw next year. Besides that, I love traveling and volunteering at the same time because it is the best way to meet with interesting locals and learn from their cultures. I also love sharing with them my passion in learning a new language.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

More opportunities to travel and more dreams! I'm planning to visit Europe again during next summer and to meet with interesting people! I would also love to introduce my passion and stories of my life to different people!

Interests

It's hard to describe because I've got too many :) I love cooking and testing different recipes, kayaking, cycling, hiking, playing soccer and basketball or camping! Recently I've been practicing Deejaying because I'm a big fan of dance music! I have been trying to learn Spanish and Polish (and maybe French!). However, if you are also a creative person, feel free to tell me other ideas of what we could do together!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Stayed in Poland for more and 2 months and volunteered at 3 different organizations/schools in this summer. It was my first time to visit Europe.

Teach, Learn, Share

English/conversational English, Chinese writing (I can also teach you how to write your name in traditional Chinese), Cantonese, Cooking, Arts, A new language, local cultures, history, and games we can play together!

What I Can Share with Hosts

My enthusiasm and my travel experience which includes things I've learned from travelling and my home country. Also share with you the excitement of exploring new places. I can teach you and your children my own languages (English and Cantonese). We can go sightseeing together and visit places we have never been to. We can have fun together, sing together, exercise together, cook together (I'll share with you my favorite recipes), and even play cards together. I can introduce you my favorite card games and you can introduce yours!
