Trying couch surfing after the Pandemic for the first time! I am a mix of USA and Hong Kong descent so I am fluent in both English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

I have lived months in a variety of places like Serbia, Orlando, Paris and Hamburg but I spent most of my time in Hong Kong, and also currently work there.

I love to do sports like rock climbing and going to the gym, I am a cinema lover and I also have been consistently backpacking on and off since 2015. I studied Aerospace Engineering in my bachelor's because I dream of space, but decided to work in the Financial Technology space after-all.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During the pandemic, I have become quite fascinated about Russian culture and I have been trying to learn the language through Babble. I would watch some old Russian Cinema on Mosfilm too.

My friend once mentioned in 2019 this was a great way for him to meet people in South America and I have finally decided I wanted to try this myself too,, but in the Far East!

I hope to be able to learn about your perspective on the world, your culture and to immerse myself in it instead of staying in a hotel. I also hope to provide value during my stay and help with any chores, and offer my take on the world and share my experiences.
