About Me

Hi there! :)
My name is Timothy and I'm from Hong Kong.
I just graduated from university so I want to do something special and memorable other than dive straight into a 9 to 5 day job.
I believe everyone should take on their own adventure in order to know where they truly belong :)

Currently I'm planning to take the trans-Siberia express to go from Moscow passing Mongolia to reach Beijing.
I just finish my year long cycling trip from my hometown Hong Kong to Barcelona in October and also my hitchhiking trip to Moscow in the following few weeks and now I'm heading back home to Hong Kong.

I'm slowly making my way through the continent (again). So if anyone can offer me some help or just a nice warm shower along my way, I will be so appreciated and probably will love you for life lol.
I got my own sleeping bag and mattresses, so any space you have will do me just great.
I'm a laid back, easy going, open minded and trustworthy person, I don't mind sharing the same living space with other couchsurfers you have at the same time :)

I try not to plan too much beforehand as I believe there is always a surprise just around every corner.
Expecting the unexpected and enjoying the little things are what I'm simply doing and believe in :) It just gives me pure happiness !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kinda doing it at the moment... :)
Spent one year cycling across Asia and Europe
Hitchhiking from Barcelona to Moscow in a few weeks

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach you Chinese, like writing your name in Chinese characters or a simple soup I usually have back in Hong Kong

Trying to learn everything, it would be nice to learn some local dishes.

Can share a lot of things, toilet paper, good old maps and stories gathered along my way are some of them ;)
