I am a business consultant, born in China and graduated from university in Hong Kong. Here are 3 fun facts about me:

1. During my university years, I was able to travel to 9 different countries through scholarship applications and cultural exchange programs.
2. During the period since starting my career, I have not had a stable home base, living in many cities across China. I consider this my "YOLO (You Only Live Once) plan" and have been keeping a YOLO diary, documenting my experiences in over 30 different locations in China so far.
3. I hope to live to the age of 103, as I find this world to be endlessly fascinating and would love to experience it across two centuries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In September this year, I was invited to attend an international conference in Montreal. I'm hoping to use this as an opportunity to travel around Montreal, Quebec, Ottawa, Toronto and meet new people, and plan to do so through the Couchsurfing community from 23rd, Sept to 5th, Oct. My travel experiences have taught me that the most interesting aspect of any journey is the people you meet, so I'm excited to connect with unique individuals like yourself!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have 8 years of experience in education-related public service work in China. I co-founded an education non-profit organization while in university, and after graduating, I spent 7 months teaching in a rural county in southwest China. These helping-others experiences have made me adept at relating to people from diverse backgrounds, and have given me a deep appreciation for the richness of the world.
