I am a 28 year old Hong Kong Chinese. My parents are from Hong Kong but I was born and raised in the Netherlands. They call me a banana because I am yellow on the outside but white on the inside. I studied Arts at the Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences (Willem de Kooning ART Academy) in Rotterdam. I currently work at the university at International Relations Office (https://www.rotterdamuas.com/) and I cook in a restaurant (http://www.belvedererotterdam.nl) and I am in the council of the Museum of Rotterdam (https://museumrotterdam.nl/ontdek/raad-echt-rotterdams-erfgoed).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people, especially from different countries. I did an international minor and I made lots of friends from different countries. I have been visiting friends outside of the Netherlands and I would like to see more of the world and this is a great way to do it. I got inspired by a ted talk in Rotterdam where I met Tomislav Perko, the author of 1000 days of Spring.
