About Me

Hey there! I'm currently an engineering student studying in Hong Kong. I come from a fun loving family that loves travelling. I'm an adventurous person and love to meet new people! I like talking about many different topics, from food to technology, even fashion and politics. Seriously, you can talk to me about anything!

I would say that I'm a person who firmly believes in promoting joy. It's through finding the joy from people and surroundings that we truly find who we are and what is meaningful to us. A simple smile or hug can go a long way in making someone's day brighter. Nothing makes me more happy and fulfilled than to see my friends and family laugh, even if it makes me look silly!

I hope to meet you in soon in the future and I hope that we can be friends too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I was on a WWOOF trip once with my friends during high school to Algeria. It was my first time travelling far away from home. When I got there, I was completely blown away by how friendly the other travelers were and their passion for other people. I was really moved by them and wanted to be a part of that culture. My fellow travelers recommended that I try out couchsurfing as it would allow me to travel to more places to meet other cool and attractive people since couchsurfing is free.

So here I am now. I'm here because I want to meet you and learn more about your culture, friend!

Music, Movies, and Books

Despite not knowing too much Korean, I absolutely love Korean Dramas. Something about it is just so attractive. I love the outfits and the acting and also the cohesion. It really makes me feel so happy watching it. So it's my dream to be able to visit Korea one day.

As for music, I really enjoy jazz as it really makes me feel really alive and at the same time brings some soul and comfort to me. Since I play the flute as well, I have an affinity towards classical music as the complexities and richness really makes me feel calm and at one with nature.

My favourite book would definitely be Freakonomics ‎by Steven D. Levitt. As much as I love a good party and adventure, I also love the more analytical things in life. Freakonomics presents me as a reader insights into how certain things in life have patterns with other seemingly random things in life. It's a truly mind blowing and eye opening book and as such I really enjoy it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done sky jumping off the AJ Hackett Macau Tower. It is literally the most exciting and adrenaline pumping thing I've ever done. 10/10 would recommend you try it out.
