Hello I am Andrea from Hong Kong. I am an INFP (if personality type matters haha:)). Love and peace are my core values. I love music and art and nature. My ultimate goal in my life is to find my own peace of mind.

I am an idealist and I am very intrigued with the idea of Utopia and Shangri-la. I hope that one day there will be no more wars and chaos in the world. I also like the ideas of Ecovillage, Permaculture and Gifted Economy.

Here are some of the poems that I like a lot.

“I strove with none, for none was worth my strife; Nature I loved, and next to Nature, Art; I warmed both hands before the fire of life; It sinks, and I am ready to depart” ----by Walter Savage Landor

“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne’er express, yet cannot all conceal.” —- by Lord Byron

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanna know more about different cultures and explore. I wanna meet people from all walks of life. It would be great If we can have a sincere and deep talk.
