About Me

Hi,
I'm a 26 year old originally from England. I've been in Oregon, USA for the past 8 years for University and work. Currently about to start a 1-year rotation with my company (probably in Europe) before returning to U.S eventually.

I've been wanting to visit some British-Chinese friends that have moved back to Hong Kong recently and i would love to visit them! I'm learning Cantonese which i'm enjoying very much!

I work as a Scientist within drug formulation for a Swiss Pharmaceutical company called Lonza.

My interests:
- Running
-Weightlifting/crossfit
- Reading (big Harry Potter and Paulo Coelho fan!)
- Hiking
- Music (Foster the People, MGMT, Kooks, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and lots lots more :)
- Movies (Christopher Nolan movies!, I really like Chinese movies as well like Love in a Puff, In the mood for love, A Nail Clipper Romance and many more!)
- i love coffee shops (the more "hipster" the better ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going to be in Hong Kong visiting for 9 days. I'll spend some time visiting my 2 good friends however i also want to make new friends and meet new people while i'm in Hong kong! I figured Couchsurfing would be a great way to meet people and make new friends! :)
