Hi, my name is Nam and I am a travel writer and blogger based in Hong Kong but spent 12 years studying in the UK.

I blog at www.laughtraveleat.com and loves food, hiking, and learning about cultures. I can be a bit of a chatter box and loves making jokes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am always traveling so would love to to meet new people along the way. I love sharing travel stories, getting to know people and having a laugh! I do find it difficult to approach people initially but love chatting, so a bit of an oxymoron - essentially, I need a reason/a good opener to approach people otherwise I get shy.

I don't have any references yet but I had used airbnb which has some reviews left by hosts for those who want to see it:

I run a travel blog so you can also sass me out on my social media:

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a native Cantonese speaker and fluent in both English and Mandarin if anyone is interested in learning some basic from me or ask about my culture.

I would also love to learn about languages and cultures of places I visit.
