About Me

Definitely a dog person!! Sassy yet self-deprecates a lot ;) epitome of extrovert and consider herself polymath, since i can pretty much chat about anything! (Science, politics, economy, culture, sports, art, philosophy..... you name it!) and if I haven't been exposed to it, i'd love to learn about it !

Generally an abstract thinker, can be politically incorrect or eccentric at times, but absolutely open-minded (I grew up on a tropical island in China and moved to Canada when i was a teenage, so basically got exposed to both oriental and western philosophies at an age that was mature enough to comprehend the essences but too mature to religiously believe in either. lol)

I think i pretty much broke every Asian girl stereotype ... except foodie :p I'm also good at getting out of awkward situations..... mostly provoked by myself....or at least i pretend to ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet people and learn about different views :)

BTW: I will take you even if you've never hosted anyone, but please give back to the community afterwards by hosting someone as soon as you get a chance!

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

That is an endless list that is forever expanding ~~ Starting from Harry Potter, Titanic (for the soundtrack), Inglorious bastards, shawshank redemption, the imitation game, the theory of everything, inception, inside out, Zootopia, Arrival, House MD., Sherlock (BBC version), Cixin Liu, Yuval Noah Harari and many many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had lots of pets growing up (not amazing per se, but lucky). dogs, a cat, ducklings, a turtle, hamsters, rabbits, chicken and..... fish? (they are not so interactive tho)

Hmmm walked from MIT to Harvard campus round trip in flip-flops ?

Hiked from 5am to 7pm with only a bottle of water and an apple? (that mountain had no paved road so it was half climbing half hiking.... that must be my closest experience to Tarzan now that i think about it🤔)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm picking up French... and swimming (front crawl), wine-making etc ( I know, very random list, i can be spontaneous sometime :) I also want to learn scuba diving, fencing , archery, and equestrian :3

I can share......Do interesting thoughts count? Also improvised Chinese cuisines (with a western twist).

What I Can Share with Hosts

hmmm do you wanna learn Chinese ? I also enjoy friendly debate and happy to introduce you to something new. I'm sure I can expand your knowledge base at certain aspects ;p

I'm happy to help with some housework as well, or if you wanna try my improvised desserts ;)
