About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel and see the world!! Enjoy life~

ABOUT ME

She loves to dance and travel, and want to meet interesting people from different backgrounds to exchange culture and stories!

I have previously lived in Copenhagen DK, Birmingham UK, and now live in Newcastle/Gateshead where I work.

I strive to be open-minded, flexible, easy going, and always looking to have a good time.

In my free time, I like to dance (especially Salsa dancing!!) , participate in musicals and performing arts projects, play the keyboard and ukulele.

I also love to cook, which is a new found interest living abroad. I always cook some authentic Hong kong style food and japanese food for my hosts!

This is my third time back in Europe since my last 9-month stay in Birmingham, UK, (and prior to that 5 months in Denmark), which was absolutely amazing. I am now on a mission to see different parts of Europe!

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest and be happy! Keep on learning and trying new things to keep life interesting. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only surfed once in Basel, Switzerland and the experience was AMAZING. My host and I swam down the River Seine together, which was so cold but something I remember even 4-5 years down the road.

I have heard many people recommend couch surfing that I had to try it for myself. I am generally an easy-going person and don't need a lot.. so I try to minimise hassle for the host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hope to have many great couch surfing experiences!!
