About Me

Extroverted-introvert. Enjoys talking to people and getting to know about different languages and cultures. Interested in trying out new things and ideas.

Studies music, plays the violin and piano. Have had many experiences with different musical instruments including chinese dizi (bamboo flute) and percussions. I also sing english/mandarin pop songs for fun :)

Music gave me the opportunity to travel to different countries. Without it, I don't think I would have stepped out of my country in the first place.

I enjoy company and deep long conversations with people listening to their stories. Absolutely can't express my love enough for good food, although I'm pretty much still an amateur cook myself.

About Jean:
Statistic major in University and working part time in a computer company, introvert but enjoys meaningful conversations in the right moments, very interested in health, nutrition and sports, doesn't know how to cook.... :p Loves playing chess and doing math :D loves travelling even though he hasn't been to many countries yet.

I will be visiting Italy for the first time with my boyfriend this summer!!
I personally have been couchsurfing twice, and this is the first time we will do it as a couple, I hope this will work and that I could show him how amazing a couchsurfing experience would be, compared to just staying by ourselves without exposure to locals, so I'm excited if any kind and friendly locals would offer to host us and show us your city!! :)
This is a rough plan, we would be really happy if we manage to find hosts in these cities and experience Italy with the help of locals :)
ITALY TRIP 10-20 JULY 2018:

10-12: Rome
12-15: Florence/Tuscany
15-17: Cinque Terre
17-20: Venice

We look forward to meeting whoever it is, we are fated to meet! :) Till then!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe Couchsurfing is an invaluable experience one could possibly have when traveling. Whats more unforgettable than living with locals and discovering the city together with their help? I personally am not very fond of being a tourist, rather a traveller, and CS is one of the places that helps you to do so :)

I currently live in a music student dorm, its very small but I could possibly host 1 person depending on my schedule. I'm usually quite preoccupied during the semester, but if I happen to have time, we could explore the city and do some activities together. Don't write if you just want to find a place to stay for free. I do not want to sleep next to someone who is just there to save cost and has no intention to get to know me as a person. Also, I ONLY accept female guests and very clean people who will not mess up my place.

If you want to just hang out feel free to write me a message! If I have time I would gladly join you :)
