About Me

Originally from Hong Kong, I am currently on a long break from work so I decided to travel for a bit to see more of the world and figuring out what I really want to do.

I was sent to boarding school when I was 14 and educated oversea in UK for over a decade.

Now working as a technical recruiter specialize in IT recruitment within sell side/ buy side sectors. I am currently on sabbatical taking off a bit of a long break from work.

Apart from work, I like to do photography, boxing and travelling.

“There are no strangers here; only friends you haven’t yet met.” W.B. Yeats

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people from different cultures really inspire me to the extent that I would know myself better

Interests

Been doing film photography after switching from digital photography. I welcome all kind of collaboration.
