Born in China, moved to Montreal, Canada when I was 3 years old.
I've been living in Montreal for nearly 2 decades now, currently studying medicine.

I paint, draw and read in my spare time. I'd consider myself a pretty easy-going person, I love to talk about everything and anything: books, movies, politics, philosophy, you name it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to make the most of my time to see the world through the eyes of the locals (the most authentic way of travelling, in my opinion), learn the most I can from them, meet new people, live the best experiences possible.

Interests

I love the visual arts (I draw and paint in my free time), reading, running, and spend ing an unhealthy amount of time on Netflix. I'm also a huge foodie. I like cooking and trying new recipes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've travelled to Nicaragua, stayed with host families there for 3 weeks and worked in coffee fields there, all the while learning Spanish.

I also ran a half-marathon a few years ago which is an amazing feat for the couch potato that I am.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Teach you weird Quebec French slang.
