Overview
About Me
My name is Kim, a free spirit, traveler, blogger, who is optimistic and willing to help or share what he has. For more interest, I’d leave you my Instagram: intofreefall; my Facebook page: intofreefall.com
CURRENTLY: I have been traveling from China to Europe for six months, with my bicycle, tent, Couchsurfing and every sort of way, since July 2018. Now still have a few days to go. I just finished el Camino de Portugués y Igles, stayed in Barcelona for a few days with a crazy, long-hair friend, a part of Ruta de Don Quijote in Castile La-Mancha and having wonderful time in Toledo. I am finishing the whole journey in Madrid, where I fly back Hong Kong 🇭🇰 on February 3.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To live more lives. To learn the world and people in person. To get rid of the influence from mass media. Of course to make friends and being connected with the place I have been to.
Interests
I like outdoor sports, mountains, cats. Traveling in various ways and meeting locals.
Watching movies 🎥 a lot, the way I reach to the world when I don't travel. I'm a bit interested in geography, nature, world history & politics, and architecture.
Walking, conversation or relaxing with a drink are great to me.
I play board games like RISK, Wild Jack, and Chinese Chess.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Biking 🚴 to the Everest Base Camp (Tibetan side)? Camping at Cape do Roca? Hot-air ballooning in Cappadocia in winter ❄️? Hitchhiking for months in NZ and Aussie? Okay, there is one ☝🏾: I was stupid to lose my laptop, e-reader, winter clothing, sleeping bag the second of this long journey.

MY EYES, MY EARS and MY HEART.
I'm busy in weekdays. I may only show you around at evening when after work, or at weekends. But it depends. In weekday evenings, I used to stroll or run in the evening along the harbor. I hike or ride occasionally at weekends. We can go for a picnic too.
