About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find out my "Europe"

ABOUT ME

I study European studies in Hong Kong. And I am now an exchange student in Germany. And this semester I do the internship in Cologne. In this year I hope to seize every opportunity to travel around Europe and find out my "Europe". So I would be really glad if anyone can also share their "Europe" with me. At the beginning, I seem to be a shy girl. But actually I am talkative and I love sharing my story with the others.^^ Also, I am a good listener and know how to respect the others too. Hope that I have the chance to listen to your story.

PHILOSOPHY

Time flies so enjoy your life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My friends joined this CS project and gave me positive feedback. Therefore when I traveled around in Europe at Christmas, I searched and met other CS participants in other cities. :) Although I cannot host the others in the moment, I am willing to hang out. (But to be honest I don't know Cologne that much as an exchange student..... But sharing different stories and experience would be still interesting)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed five times until now. And I am really glad that I had been their surfer. All of my hosts are really nice and helpful. Some spent a day to lead me travel around and explain the history of the city. Although most of them were busy with their work, they always saved some time at night and talked with me. It was really nice. On one hand, they can tell me more small stories behind and give me some local tips. On the other hand, I can know more about my city in the sight of the others. Talking and sharing is always the happiest time in the trip. :)

Interests

I love traveling! Going to new places and experience another life make me excited. And I like eating and cooking too, especially with friends. Sharing joy is the happiest thing. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the sunset on the top of the Lion Rock in Sri Lanka is so amazing. At that time, I just wanna say, "I am the king of the world!!!"
Lying on the beach in Santorini, Greece is also great. It is a peaceful and lovely island. If you go there, you won't want to leave.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
1. how to cook Chinese dumpling (It is interesting for me that the stuffing of the dumplings are so different in various countries. And dumpling has its special meaning in Chinese tradition. So I hope that I can cook it for you and explain some Chinese culture)
2. languages that I know^^
Learn:
1. new languages (I mean just some basic sentences so that I can use it next time when I travel in that country)
2. something interesting^^
Share:
1. Our experience of traveling around
2. some special things in our culture
3. interesting stories
