About Me

I am quite free these days and maybe able to host guests !!!

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, experience different culture, make friends from other countries

ABOUT ME

- Open-mined
Born in mainland China and grew up in Hong Kong, I have chances to learn & know both eastern and western culture, which fascinate me a lot. I would like to explore more about the world, making friends from other culture backgrounds, sharing life, culture, etc. Though being an engineering students, I am more than happy to study humanities. I studied Feminism and Political Philosophy in first year. I enjoyed it a lot.

- Outgoing & Positive
I actively participate in lots of voluntary works, helping the needed. For example, I have been to Yan'an, a poor Chinese city, as a voluntary teacher to tutor students for three weeks. Besides, I have many hobbies - playing tennis, running, camping, travelling, boxing, etc. All of them make enrich my life.

- Talkative & Easy-going
I enjoy both sharing and listening, especially when I meet some foreigners. I am more than happy to share everything I know as long as the others are ready and willing to listen. At the same time, I am glad to listen to sharing from others about life, culture. etc. I am very easy-going and adaptive, can either stay in hostels or hotels(if I have money. haha!!).

- Polite & Disciplined
I will definitely show respect to different cultures, customs, religions and life styles. I manage myself quite well, leading a quite healthy life. Normally sleep before 11pm and wake up before 8am. NO smoking, no junk food, rarely drink alcohol.

PHILOSOPHY

Think positively and positive things will happen to you.

Don't take everything for granted, always be humble.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was given a book called "Another Way to Travel". This book is about travelling sharing of some people who don't like mainstream travelling style, shopping, photo-taking, sightseeing but like culture sharing, voluntary works, contributions to local communities. I knew couch-surfing from that book and that is the travelling style I long for - meeting locals to share life, culture, etc.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch-surfing experience was in Berlin, Germany. It was great to meet a young couple who are very kind, friendly, open-minded and easy-going. That encourages me to carry on couch-surfing and I do believe it's the best way to travel since what you gain is more than sightseeing. So far I have surfed for several times and met many nice people. I had a very nice time with all of them.
