Hi! This is Phoebe from Hong Kong 👋🏼 Getting back on CS because I always enjoy meeting new friends whether when I'm at my home city or travelling. I'm an easy-going person, always up for adventures and good food! I love to travel, get to know new cultures, meet new people and learn about their life stories! CURRENT MISSION Be a lifelong learner Embrace all the challenges and uncertainties in my travel and life Capture sunrise/sunset in every city I visit
Interested in Art
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in English
Learning Japanese
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I enjoy meeting new people and learn about their life stories and thoughts! To me, the idea that you and someone from another part of the world, with different cultural backgrounds can have a chance walk into each other's life is just amazing!
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Jazz music, movie soundtracks, R&B, indie music Movies: Wes Anderson's movies (e.g. Grand Budapest Hotel) Richard Linklater's movies (Boyhood, Before Sunrise) Back to the Future trilogy Into the Wild, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, The Legend of 1900, Submarine, 500 days with Summer The Moon Books: Vermeer's Hat A Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García Márquez The Notebook, The Proof, The Third Lie by Agota Kristof Taipei People by Pai Hsien-yung The Shadow of the Wind
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Traveling alone! The encounters and experiences are so empowering and taught me a lot to be open-minded and embrace spontaneity in life.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach Languages that I know, especially Cantonese (a language with 9 sounds! :P) Coffee brewing Food recipes Learn New languages and everything that is new to me! Share My stories, food and tea(if I have them with me), book and movie recommendations, random history facts, food and drink recommendations of the places I have been
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can share stories about my travel stories, knowledge about cultures (especially Chinese culture), food recommendation of the cities I have visited, book and movie recommendations! I also love cooking and would be happy to cook a meal for my hosts :) And I can share my Chinese tea with you, if I have it with me.(Yes, I love tea so I bring it everywhere I go!)
My Interests
One of my biggest interests is to learn new languages, it's the second best way to understand the culture of a place in my opinion! (for your reference, the first best way is through having the local food ;) ) I like good food, films, books, history, tea&coffee, cocktails, wine, hiking, watching sunrise and sunset
