Overview
About Me
I grew up in Hong Kong and slowly amassing dots on my map for the places I've been to. Lived in Abedeen Scotland for 4 months on a university exchange. Currently based in Tromsø, Norway because I finished a masters in an LLM Law of the Sea program at the University of Tromsø. Use to work as a dog sledding and Northern lights guide. Worked in a warehouse as well and worked as a dishwasher. Now I divide my time between chasing Northern lights as a guide and working as a kindergarten assistant.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Just want to meet new people from all over the world!
I should have all the ticks for being a normal tourist and all the ticks for an abnormal tourist, Say I don't just want to see the Big Ben, I also want to see everything, the good, the beautiful, the bad, the ugly things in a place I want to visit. The tourist books can't show me that. Probably only the locals can.
