About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find peace in life, so peaceful life will find you...

ABOUT ME

I physics in my undergrad and biomedical engineering for my masters. Currently, I am a grad student at UBC taking Computer Science. Why? I haven't got a clue. I like to take on a challenge, I guess...
Jan (my boyfriend) and I have been living in Vancouver for just about 1 months now, and are really enjoying it so far. Great city, definitely worth a visit!
I like to do just about anything. There's nights that I go to bed with a cup of hot chocolate and a good book at around 08:15 pm and there's mornings that I come home from a good party around 08:15 am. I enjoy having company, especially when eating, drinking, talking, laughing etc.
Most of free time I spent on the hockey field though. I just joined a field hockey team here in Vancouver. So I have to bend my free time around studying, working and hockey.

PHILOSOPHY

Yin and Yan, what you get is what you gave

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started to do couch surfing on a road trip with my best friend from primary school. We bought a car in texas and drove up the american east coast and all the way through canada until we ended up in seattle. we started to couchsurf when it got to cold to sleep in the car. we had quite nights, went out and partied or stayed in and partied. It was always a lot of fun and I am planning to do more surfing on my upcoming journeys!
