Hello! My name is Alison. I am a 25-year-old Hong Kong girl.
I have been staying in Germany for almost a year. Hannover is my home base . I work for my host to get meal and accommodation exchange. The range of my work is very wide. Most of the time I volunteered as a chicken raiser, from the process of putting eggs to a hatching machine to seeing them cracking their shell and sticking out their head; from giving them food to collecting eggs. I also tried renovating room and renewing stuff. Gardening is also one of my jobs.

I enjoy having little happy things happen in life. Sitting under sunshine, trying new activities, meeting new friends, reading a book...little enjoyments accumulate real happiness!

I am rather quite when I meet new people the first time, after getting to know me....hahahaha the image may change. Some people consider me to be quite funny, some think that I am quite serious. It depends a bit haha! I would consider myself to have several personalities. They fit to different kinds of people :)

My mother language is Cantonese. I could also speak Mandarin and English. It is a pity that I couldn't speak very good German after staying there for almost a year, but basic conversation is still alright.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying with local, even for just one day, is a great way to know more about people and culture there. I like meeting new people:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well for some people maybe it sounds dumb, but I repaired an IPhone thanks to the instruction video on YouTube. Hahaha for me that's quite amazing because I am an absolute electric appliance idiot.

Teach, Learn, Share

My major was Chinese education. I could for sure share some Chinese language knowledge if you want :)

Language wise I am learning German. Otherwise anything new is interesting to me!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travel experience, although they are not super special. I do like sharing and listening to travel experience.

I don't have my own apartment, so it is a pity that I cannot host anyone. But if you ever come to Hong Kong, I will show you around and bring you to experience real Hong Kong culture :P
