CURRENT MISSION

To explore Asia while I live here.

ABOUT ME

My name is Nevaire. I live in Hong Kong with my husband and hope to be here for several years. I love hiking, reading, writing, and cooking. I am always searching for the holy grail of hole-in-the-walls: dirty, dank and filled with dark draft beers.

PHILOSOPHY

"You live and you learn; at any rate, you live."

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been a host and a surfer. I love both. I hope to host again soon and get to know fellow CSers in Hong Kong.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing in France made my trip incredible. The hosts I stayed with were friendly, open, and very gracious. I felt like I really got to know each city, not just the places tourists like to visit.

I took two Englishmen to Lady Bird Lake to kayak. We had a great time swimming and paddling around, and they got to experience Texas sun! (They got a bit burned...)

While traveling in China, I met up with some CSers and we had a great time running around the country.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Swimming in the Mediterranean. Hands down some of the most fun I've had. It helped that I was with some amazing people, including my sister.

Climbing the Great Wall- it wasn't what I was expecting, and it was great! Night food in Shanghai and mastering the art of eating with chopsticks.

Hiking the Smokies in North Carolina. I love the little part of the US I call home.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can talk at length about gardening and sustainable practices. Want to know about composting? Let's talk! Want to know what the heck vermicomposting is? You're in luck, I had a worm bin.

I like to knit/crochet. Embroidery is a passion of mine.

I LOVE teaching people how to cook or learning a new technique from them.
