I am a very relaxed person, easygoing, love to laugh but can also be very quiet. I am a tea enthusiast and have been traveling mostly on my own to source tea in the past years . Now, I would like to see and explore more places, learn about different cultures, local food. and enjoy trying different things.

I love to listen to new ideas, stories of people and learn about their local cultures, art, history, food, and handicraft. And I think we often have too much prejudice even before giving others and ourselves the chance to understand each other. I believe we need to have an open-mind approach to everything, and always stay hungry for knowledge. Well, that's my recipe to stay young in heart.

Apart from tea, I also enjoy other activities in nature, such as swimming, snorkeling, diving (which I missed a lot), photography and hiking. As for culture, I like visiting museums for both history and art exhibitions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of sharing and being inspired by many different things and people. I think this is a very good way to meet others, to dive into another culture and explore another corner on Earth. And to me, traveling with meeting the locals is like missing the main dish on the menu.

So I would like to be more connected and learn about the place through the eyes of the local people. And we can simply chat over a cup of tea. Or, I am also very happy to enjoy a glass of wine or beer!
