I am a passionate, enthusiastic and positive person. I love traveling, cooking, eating, meeting new people and have fun with them! I am very clean and respect people’s space (ask my housemates who love me very much). I am Chinese, was born in Indonesia but have lived in Melbourne for the last 9.5 years. “Where to next?” is the question in mind and hopefully this trip might help answer that question. I was thinking of maybe, moving to London for 12 months, so I could travel around Europe for 12 months.

I am heading to London and Europe in October on a solo trip for 1.5 months (will be spending my birthday on the 7th October in Portugal so you’re more than welcome to celebrate this with me! Wowo!). This will be my first time travelling to Europe so I’d like to take this opportunity to explore the continent and experience local culture and oh, its delicious delicious food! (yes I love my food). I also love independent book stores and I want to get a tattoo during my trip in Europe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to meet some local to get to know to culture and could tell me some fun things to do around the area! Who is best to ask if not the locals?

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste is very diverse...

1. I love Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist, Kite Runner to Sophie Kinsella etc but I like reading because it transports you

2. I like psychological thriller movies, Suits TV Series, Jane The Virgin, How I Met Your Mother (until Barney started dating Robyn), Simpsons to cheesy Korean dramas hehe.

3. I am generally into all genres of music but I think blues music is sexy. I like The Heavy, Duffy (I would sing he song if I ever have to go on an audition), The Black Keys, Coleman Hawkins, Selena Gomez and Beyonce etc (yes I am basically typing out things out of my Artists List in Spotify).

(see what I mean by diverse taste??)
