About Me

I enjoy good conversations with open-minded people.
Like to rationalize everything but also very easy to get emotional :p
----------------------------------
Not sure whether we can accept guests at the moment, but you can still send me a message to check if you are really keen, and I'm always up for a drink/meal or a walk together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a good way to meet like-minded people.

I met some life-long good friends and my husband on Couchsurfing when hosting people in my dorm in a rural area of China, where I was volunteering as a science teacher for a year.
