Hey, I am Rose. I was born and raised in China, but I have an international background since I travel a lot and get my university education in the U.S., France, and Singapore. Recently I settled down in Vietnam with my remote work.

I like sciences, feminism, and languages. I consider myself as an ambivert: sometimes very social but other times like to be alone.

I appreciate little things in life, especially small kindness or surprises. I am more interested in the unknown rather than living the life I know what’s going to be. Being curious at all times, my goal is to learn, create and grow.

I don’t like to share personal pictures on social media, so I don’t have any selfies to post here. You can always check the comments for more information.

*It doesn’t take me much time to write a review but it helps a lot. If I stay with you, I will definitely write you a reference : ) ❤️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Two goals: to live as a local and to meet intereting people. I met a lot of awesome people and am continuously meeting new people. I really like the idea to meet a stranger and then become friends.

No matter where, I believe I can find some friends to hang out with. So, that's why I made my way here to discover more people and make more connections!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Nagoya, I saw a girl crying and sitting on the street. I went to a nearby convenience store and bought chocolate cookies for her.
