Chinese-American INFJ, public health aficionado, yogi. Lover of social justice, cross-cultural exchange, and new friends/experiences. Believer in living spiritually.

Soy de Estados Unidos pero mis padres son de Taiwán y Corea. Me encantan salud pública, yoga, compartir las culturas, conocer amigos nuevos :)

I quit my job to travel and to try to satisfy my insatiable wanderlust tendencies. Before my travels, I lived in Seattle, worked professionally in global health, and volunteered extensively with community projects related to food/nutrition. I love learning, dancing salsa, cooking, reading, hiking, and yoga- I'm actually a certified yoga instructor and would be happy to teach you/your friends! Currently, I am living in Chicago and studying medicine.

Renuncié mi trabajo para viajando- antes de mis viajes, viví en Seattle y trabajé en salud pública. Me encanta cocinando, leyendo, caminando, y haciendo yoga- realmente soy una profesora de yoga y me estaría alegré que enseñarte yoga :)

At the end of 2016, I'm traveling in South America before I start medical school in Chicago in July 2017. When I'm a doctor, I plan on practicing medicine in resource-poor areas, whether it's at home in the US or abroad.

Actualmente, estoy viajando en Colombia antes de empiezo mi escuela de medicina en Chicago en este julio. Cuando me hago una médica, estoy planeando que practicar medicine en las comunidades pobres.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I can't possibly express how the travel community has changed me as an individual- everyone I've met on my travels so far is incredibly open-hearted, open-minded, and just 100% kind. I'm on Couchsurfing because it's simply the travel community at its finest. :)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I'm still working on my personal motorcycle driving skills, but one of my most life-changing experiences was seeing 1000 miles of Vietnam on the back of my friend's motorcycle. It's amazing to see how little someone can have and how much they're willing to share.

教，学，和分享

Teach: I'm a certified yoga instructor, so I'd be more than happy to give you/your roommates some yoga lessons :) Aside from that, I'd be more than happy to exchange language skills, such as English or Chinese.
