I was born in San Francisco, raised mainly in Hong Kong, finished my undergraduate in the States, and came to Scotland to do my master (now my PhD). I like making people laugh, and in general just having a good time together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a travel enthusiast and have been to many places already so far. I love seeing new things and meeting new people. The majority of my traveling experience has been great and I have been blessed to be helped by so many nice and kind people who didn't even know me personally in the beginning.

I know difficulties arise when you are traveling and I believe this is a good time to give back to the community and help my fellow travelers. I am also planning to couch-surf soon so having a good profile is going to help :)
