Greetings!

My name is Phoebe (fee-bee)! I was born in Shanghai, but I was adopted around 1 year old, so I've lived in the United States the entire time. I was going to journey to China some time back, but the economy took a decline :(

I grew up in St. Louis county, but I've been traveling around since I was 16. Started domestically, like Austin and Long Beach, then it expanded to Japan and Switzerland! After graduation I plan to relocate to Long Beach, and travel to Brussels.

I study international business at some university in Missouri. It's in a small town, which is quite the change from where I usually stay. Because of my major, I'm interested in economics and international affairs. I am required to study abroad, but I don't know where to go. Suggestions welcome!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'll get to meet locals and get some real information about the city, as opposed to a hotel. I'm not really into doing things that are too heavily aimed at tourists.

And after I graduate, I'm headed to Long Beach for good! I'd love to start hosting! I've met so many interesting people in LB, and I'd love to give newcomers a first-hand experience!

兴趣

I'm not picky about what I do. There's not a lot to do in Missouri to begin with, so anything goes.

I do not like, however, being stuck in traffic. Which is ironic in LA, but it happens!

• coffee
• hiking
• urban exploration
• food
• ocean
• city life

音乐、电影和书籍

A distant (and deceased) relative of mine won a Nobel Prize for literature! I've read some of his works, which I do recommend!

try: Henryk Sienkiewicz

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Life's a pretty amazing thing to begin with. I wouldn't call one experience of mine the most #iconic, but I've been able to fill my life with people, places, and things to learn.

教，学，和分享

I could tell you some things about living in different areas of this country. I grew up in the midwest, I go to school close to the south, and I've lived out west for a bit as well. There's new lingo, food, and people!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I want to be a part of your household, like a roommate! I don't want hosts to feel like they have to cater to me like a hotel.
