Hello 你好！I'm Matthew from Hong Kong, my Chinese name is 王禹謙 (transliterate as WONG Yu Him).
I like to explore the world by travelling, rather to have a luxury trip, I want to spend time will locals and experience the lives of them.
I'm an easygoing person. At first glance I maybe shy (personality maybe), as we know each other more you will find me a different person :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If travel doesn't just mean sightseeing, enjoying top food and shopping, but spending time in cultural exchange with local friends, it is more valuable and unforgettable.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I like energetic music the most, my favourite band is Against the Current formed in New York

Movies: Thriller movie - My all time favourite is a HK movie - Internal Affairs (Undercover agents in both police and gang) , it inspires Martin Scorsese to film the Hollywood movie "the Departed"

Books: Mostly self-help books which I found interesting, teaching me attitude towards life
