Hi there👋🏻 I’m Roger, originally from China, now work & live in central London. I came to London for my education four years ago and then worked here since I graduated. I’m a travel enthusiast and a proper conversationalist who enjoys socialising with interesting minds. The reason I’m on CS is to make new friends from all over the world and provide a cosy space for travellers who has the same spirit:)

Since I’ve lived in central London for over four years, I’m confident to say that I’m a proper Londoner, so I’ll be glad to be your personal guide if London is new to you. I can recommend you the cool places to visit, hidden gems to explore and best restaurants and experiences with affordable price🍱🍜🍰

I like London so much. I would like you to feel the warmth and friendliness of this city as I do.

My music taste varies from pop, indie pop to rock, basically I listen to everything🤡 name a few my favourite artists: The 1975; Jessie Ware; MARINA; Miley Cyrus, The Killers; Janet Jackson…

Also I’m a big musical fan, prefer modern ones to the classic ones 🎭 Dear Evan Hansen, Hamilton, Grease, Hairspray, Tick Tick Boom… are a few of my favourites. I know the cheapest way to get tickets in London, maybe we can go see a show together then?

As for TV series, I love comedy series and dramas. How I met Your Mother, Will and Grace, Hot in Cleveland, Desperate Housewives are in my binge watching list.

Additionally I love watching travel shows, The Amazing Race has been my all time favourite!
