Hey everyone, I am Yim. Currently working as a half producer and half PM in a video production house in HK.
I am not a super outgoing extraverted person, but I am all about meeting interesting people and sharing lives with them through endless conversation, movies, music and photography.

I am also collaborating and wish to collaborate interesting projects on any art formats with people. I take photographs as well, so if you like, you could take a look at my Instagram: liesarewishes

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I first started couchsurfing for my exchange in Europe few years ago and found out that it is such a unique way to discover a place with interesting locals.

I guess I am also a bit bored with all those super touristic places and I mean nothing is better than to experience and explore a place with locals that are same taste and mindset =)

Sadly I can't host you in Hong Kong, as I am staying with parents and the rent in Hong Kong just too expensive for me to move out and live alone, even tho I am very much want to do so. But I am more than willing to show you around and keep you company during your stay in HK and show you around!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are all sort of crazy things that I have done, but one I will have to say is the acid trip I had last year, which sort of changed my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

It might be a bit arrogant to say I can teach you things, but I am very open-minded and embrace all kind of conversation.
I would love to learn and exchange cultures, ideas and stories with the host.
And probably take some nice photos, go to so nice indie club and watch indie movies and talk about them later.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Loads of recommendations on movies and music!
If you wanna try, i could cook HK style asian food, but my photogrpahy skill probably better than it haha
