CURRENT MISSION

To learn and experience the world, culture, and life

ABOUT ME

I describe myself as an introvert person with strange sense of humour.

I am originally from and grew up in Hong Kong so I speak Cantonese, English, little bit of Mandarin Chinese. Right now I am trying to learn some Japanese and German. I have been settling in the United States for almost 9 years.

I have been a vegetarian for the last five years. I believe that human should try to reach a harmony with the nature, instead of trying to dominate the nature. I believe dominating the nature is not sustainable way of life, because one can never have enough greed.

I really like bicycle. It gives me a sense of freedom without having to input much carbon dioxide onto the atmosphere. It is also a good form of cardio exercise as well.

I like the nature and I like to enjoy it from different angles. I also like big cities and the cultural exchange of it too. That is why I am currently living in Seattle because it is a good balance of both.

In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, cling, camping, hiking, running, or swimming. I am not very sporty, but I enjoy cardio exercises.

I also like reading, listening to different kinds of music, and enjoying interesting conversations with different people. I also like to learn different things and gain different perspectives

PHILOSOPHY

I think people should strive for their happiness, and to learn from each other, so to make the world better. Honestly is important than white lies.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was introduced to CS by my roommate back in Colorado. I think it is a brilliant idea as it allows people from all over the world to share their cultures and ideas to people across the globe.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfing experience in the USA, Germany, and Spain, and Belgium. I have so much positive experiences, get to know some people from across the world and exchanged ideas and cultures through discussions.
