About Me

Just finished my year-long travel in Latin America, loved every bit of the experience, the people, and the mountains I have been through.

Now back to HK this chaotic but interesting city - home. Planning my next stops but now will immerse again in this rapid city which owns both its problems and its beauty.

Glad to meet any travellers and share our travelling stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A whole year break from work. I want to make local friends in every country I visit if possible

Interests

Going gigs and movies are my heavy interest. While I have been playing classical guitar for over 10 years myself.

On the other hand, enjoy the freedom of running, used to be a marathon runner until getting a knee problem. Enjoy more going trekking now when I travel.
