About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel and see the world!! Meet local people while traveling!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Hong Kong and went to school in USA. Now I am working in Amsterdam. Travel is my passion and I have visited over 20 states while I was in USA and most of western Europe after I moved to Amsterdam. I enjoy meeting new friends and learn from people with different cultures.

I am pretty easy going, love to laugh and meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been a member for this site for quite sometimes because I like the concept and the ideal of couch-surfing. I only recently started actively participating after moving to my new place. I hosted my first couch surfer back in August and enjoyed the experience tremendously. It is always fun and fascinating to have a sneak peek of another culture through meeting other couch-surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don't have a lot of experience with couch surfing yet. I couch surfed at Koln, Germany couple years ago and now I am occasionally hosting couch-surfers if I have time.

Interests

I love to run and currently training for the Amsterdam Marathon. I also love traveling, hiking, movies, dining out with friends. If you need tips about restaurant to go to , feel free to ask me.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoyed a good horror and action movie. Nowadays most of the horror movie focus on special effect and just make you jumpy instead of building up the atmosphere.
Horror: Cabin in the woods, Conjuring, 28 days later, SAW, The Ring, Shinning.
Action: The Matrix, Terminator, Kill Bill, Inception, Alien, The predictor, The hunger game.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking for 5 days in Glacier National Park from Montana, USA all the ways to Waterton National Park in Canada. It was tough with a 50kg backpack and hiking for 7 hours per day but the scenery is breathtaking and I almost feel like I was in the middle earth!
