Civil engineering college student in New York, native Chinese. My biggest wish is to speak as many languages as possible, so I can chat with anyone from any countries with no problem. <3

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that people live in places, but places also live in people. I'd like to know your home through your stories and friendship.

I'm also a broke college student, for obvious reasons. I've slept on beaches and factory warehouse before, a couch or bed is always a lovely treat :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've volunteered with a search & rescue organization called ERCI (Emergency Response Centre International) in Greece during Europe's refugee crisis in 2016, and met some of the most incredible people during the experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Having grown up in China for 16 years, I speak fluent Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese Chinese. Glad to practice with Chinese learners & chat about Cantonese culture with anyone.
