What do you call a bear with no teeth?

My name is Emily. I live in Kowloon, Hong Kong. I work as an English Teacher to fund my trips. I am currently studying psychology. I have a strong passion towards art. I love snorkelling. I love discovering new places and interacting with a new culture.

At the moment, I am not able to host anyone, but I'd love to hang out and show you wonderful and cheap restaurant. My perfect past time is walking around the local markets with a bottle of beer. I can show you different hiking trails in Hong Kong. I always have a story to tell :P

I don't bite. Message me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to listen to new stories.
I'd love to learn new languages and connect with people.
“Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things.”
―Steve Jobs
I am just trying to be a creative person.
