I am a person that loves to share: laughter, the joys of the day, the excitement of the moment, smiles of wonder, and food and drink.
As my day job, I work in Youth Development helping teenagers get a job in the construction industry.
And at home I enjoy regular singing in my car, swimming at the beach, drinking coffee with my friends, and trying new fun things that make us laugh and smile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm travelling alone in Beijing, and I would love to share my experience with someone.
I love learning about culture and history, and I also enjoying going out for drinks, food or even a dance.
I would like to hang out with a local expat, traveler or local, to learn what Beijing is about from a local perspective.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

September 2023, I completed a 10-day Vipassana program, which is a 10-day silent meditation retreat. We stayed in rooms at a center where we meditated for up to 10 hours per day. We could not talk. Could not sing. We could only eat, drink, walk and meditate.

It was Hard. But it was Amazing.
The benefits

Teach, Learn, Share

My singing voice
My bad dance moves
My cultural acceptance and non-judgement
My empathy

My fun energy - I'll make you laugh.
My wonder of China
My young spirit
My appreciation whenever I take a bite at one of your recommended yummy food stalls
