Ongoing: research, social entrepreneurship, and public services.

ABOUT ME

A beginner and a finisher who strives to become a better person.

Since Jan 2019, I have worked in the public sector. With my wild imagination, educated guesses, and advocacy skills, I experience and explore the world through the lens of art, nature, technology, and history (storytelling).

PHILOSOPHY

To Infinity and Beyond!

Life is like managerial / cost accounting and logistics management, It could be raw material, just-in-time, work-in-process, as well as finished goods.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am thankful and look forward to meeting CSers.
As a couchsurfer, I have met up with other couchsurfers and travelers in Seattle. Since I became a member in the summer of 2014, I have met impressive and wonderful people and had a great time.

As a host, I welcome and provide a safe space to solo female travelers, but no longer accept last-minute stay requests. Please plan and request accordingly.

Interests

Cooking, watching movies, visiting museums, canoeing and kayaking (with a life jacket), making art crafts like scrapbooks and jewelry, reading/listening to nonfiction books (on tapes), playing with essential oils, and experimenting with smoothie recipes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy films, movies, and cinemas. I used to collect DVDs before Blu-ray hit the market. I frequented screening events and volunteered for the Seattle International Film Festival.

While driving, my best "friends" are music and nonfiction audiobooks on Pandora, Hoopla, and OverDrive. I no longer read novels for pleasure. I read nonfiction, magazines, newspapers, database articles, and cookbooks for information and resources. I journal to myself and write postcards to friends.

Former saxophone player for six years. Open to all kinds of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taught Mandarin Chinese to school-age children (age 5-14) and tutored college students

The first in my family to attend college with $0 student loan

President's Volunteer Service Award recipient for 1200 hours' community service

Teach, Learn, Share

I learn the best and retain the most knowledge when interacting and talking with others.

"Museum hikes" are my favorite physical workout. In NYC, I visited 20 museums in 15 days. Art, science, history, and technology advancement fascinate me.

To Potential Hosts:
I am good at making simple, authentic Chinese dishes and paleo. Get me a piece of tofu OR tomatoes and eggs, I will bring my spices and ..... rock your world and taste buds OR buzz your smoke detector :) I enjoy learning to cook by helping in others' kitchens. Cooking for you and taking on house chores are my preferred ways of showing appreciation.

To Potential Guests:
3-4 is max number of nights I may host. One guest at a time. I am open to sharing my trip experiences, observations, and inspirations with you. JUST ASK.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughs, cooking projects and kitchen experience, books, hairdryers, earplugs, good talks, etc

I can bring ingredients and spices and cook for you. Your company and curiosity in the kitchen would be greatly appreciated.
