I’m Odile, raised in China and live in London. I hold a masters degree in art history from Edinburgh University, and studied literature&philosophy in my undergraduates. Since I graduated 3 years ago, I’ve been hustling in London, as a model, a bartender, a chef, a Chinese teacher, a writer, and a guide in the National Gallery.

I know I know, that’s a lot of jobs, but that’s just how it takes to survive London, also that’s just what I am. I still can’t define myself with any of these professions. I’m a traveler in life. I’m always eager to experience new things, always passionate about the next second.

I’m a pretty much extrovert person, I love connecting people with conversations and food. Cooking, eating, traveling are all my biggest hobbies. Please please join my dinner table and let’s share all the stories.

I’m a big traveler. I’ve been to most part of Europe and China. Although I’m still new on CS. My dear dear friend Juno is an experienced couch surfer and she never stops talking about how amazing her experiences were. So here I am! Excited about the new journey :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love people! The connection between people is all I live for. I always treasure the feelings, the experience we share with others.
我尤其珍视人与人之间的联结，这是我赖以为生的东西。
