ABOUT ME

Sometimes quiet, sometimes passionate, but always open-minded. I used to work in cosmetic marketing (Avon Products)and apparel production departments (Decathlon France). I studied at London College of Fashion and London Business School, and then worked as Marketing and Communications Manager at Prescott & Mackay, School of Fashion and Accessory Design in London. I am currently in China, working as Marketing Manager for the International Fashion Academy, IFA Paris.

PHILOSOPHY

Be true and responsible to myself and to the others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend of mine had great experience here:)

I've known a lot of nice people through CS,really appreciated it. I enjoy learning different points of view through a cup of coffee with people from different culture, surfing their couches and showing them around:).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far all my CS experiences are great, beyond my imagination:) I really love this project.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I love to learn different languages. I've learned French ,Japanese, and German. It's so nice to communicate with local people in their languages!

Maybe the most amazing thing is that I have many interests and am good at quite a few of them :p

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to teach Chinese Mandarin and Cantonese. I might be the best Chinese teacher you can find :D

Also if we can practise French and Japanese together that would be fantastic!

I am a good cook, so if I have time I can teach Chinese cooking and pastry art ;)

It'll be great if you can teach me how to sing, act and dance better! Since I'm recently interested in Breaking but cannot find a good teacher...In return I can teach ballet with my over 15 years experience :)
