CURRENT MISSION

Travel more, meet more people, eat more healthy, do more exercises and be happier.

ABOUT ME

I was born and brought up in a small and quiet city in China, I left home at the age of 16 to receive my university education in Singapore, went to Copenhagen for exchange, then to Paris for my master's degree. Now working in Finance industry in London. I have travelled to 30+ countries, lived in 4, and hopefully the number is still growing! I'm a global citizen who loves to meet new people and to see the world. London is an amazing city but I hope my footsteps doesn't stop here. I want to dedicate my whole life visiting more countries, getting to know more cultures and make amazing new friends.

For me, there're two ways to experience the world: a) experience it ourselves; b) experience it through other people's experience. Since we all have limited time in this big world, I'll try my best to experience as much as can by myself whiling living the world through as many fellow travellers as I can. That's how I'd like to get the most out of life by only live once.

PHILOSOPHY

Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don't be sorry. ― Jack Kerouac

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I signed up for Couchsurfing in 2008 right before I went to Munich for Oktoberfest, but didn't manage to find a host through it and forgot about it for a while. As a world traveler, I always thought a traveling experience without Couchsurfing is incomplete as I've heard so many nice things about it. Nothing is better than Couchsurfing in terms of getting to know the local and meet wonderful people. So I decided to pick it back up again for my trip to U.S. this year (2016). So this will still be my first experience with Couchsurfing. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I hope I'll meet amazing people on the road and get to know the culture / countries better than just the pictures on my phone.

Intereses

Music is so important to me. I wasn't lucky enough to learn any instruments when I was younger but now I've been learning piano since 2012. I also love sports: jogging, gym, zumba, boxing. Sports relax my mind. I love trying new things in general, including new food :) Ok I'm a foodie you caught me...

Música, películas y libros

Movies:
Really hard to pick. Any movie that makes me smile, makes me think, makes me look at life from a different angle

Music:
Again, too many. I love pops, and also classics since I'm learning Piano. Just to name a few: Sia, Macy Grey, David Guetta, Alicia Keys, Lana del Rey, Ella Fitzgerald.

Books:
On the road (or Beat generation in general). Into the wild. Flashboys (or Michael Lewis in general). The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up....I'm on my way to become a voracious reader. Add me on Goodreads!
