About Me

Hello there!
My name is Jeremy, a university student from Hong Kong, studying Biotechnology. I will be graduating next year, but before joining the '9-to-5' community, I want to make good use of the remaining time as a student to explore other countries and search for the lifestyle, inspiration and direction that I hope to chase after later on. And this time will be traveling in the States!

Currently, I am going to LA for internship from June to August, but will also travel around in May for a month first before working. Since I am very into nature and outdoor sports, I plan to visit Yosemite, Grand Canyon and other national parks to do some hiking, as well as to visit other cities. And I would love to meet and have fun with the friendly locals along the way.

So anyone can offer me along the way a place for the night and warm shower will be nice, and I will be highly appreciated and grateful (FOR MY WHOLE LIFE)! As I want to travel in the "locals' way" to experience what the locals do and go and also to keep the travel cost down.

I got my own sleeping bag and air mattress, basically no other things are needed other than a small space and your warm company :) And I won't mind sharing spaces with other couchsurfers staying at your home

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always believe in the random act of goodness in people, doing the slightest thing for others will definitely brighten their day up, especially after my stay in a friendly straighter's home and became good friends, as well as letting my new friend known from my Japan trip to stay at my place. Such action will always put a smile on my face and brighten my day, and there's no better way to experience that other than Couchsurfing.

Interests

Cycling, Bikepacking, Hiking, Camping, Climbing, Sailing, Diving, basically the outdoor sports

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Cycled around Hokkaido, Japan for 1.5 months by myself!
(without spending a penny on transportation or accommodation)

Teach, Learn, Share

I loved to teach how to write your name in Chinese Letters, and some simple home cooking with Hong Kong style.

I'm willing and open to learning everything, especially the local culture and cooking!

And I am more than happy to share stories of the travel from my previous travel to Hokkaido, Japan and Tibet. As well as anything about Hong Kong :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Since I am born and raised in Hong Kong, I know many things in Hong Kong, I would love to share some simple home cooking and cultures in Hong Kong with others.
