Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For me, this is the best way to know nice people (internationals & locals), and share stories and experience with drinks or food.

In 2015, I have been to lots of meetup events and random catch ups or just talked to strangers who sit next to me and both of us were waiting for the same bus or tram. Instead of feeling scary, communicating with people who I haven't met before is more interesting and exciting.

Although currently, I'm not able to be a host, because i share the room with another girl, but I would like to catch up with backpackers and to be a guide or to give some tips to anyone who needs help from me.

Interests

I have lots of interests:
-enjoying all the foods(tried deep fried bugs in Bangkok 🐞🕷🐛)
-outdoor activities (the goal before 2016, i really want to learn how to surf, and
eventually can stand up on surfboard )
-chilling in pubs with friends
-create some silly random dancing moves
-being lazy on bed and watch animation
-drawing
-learning different languages

Music, Movies, and Books

This question is really hard to answer, because I may write a 2000 words essay here, and I do not really want to do this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1.In 2014, I came to Melbourne by myself.
It sounds may be nor very amazing for most of people, but this experience changes me a lot. it opens my mind, shows me how big the world is, let me know how important is enjoying life and accepts my imperfection.

2.Have done full-distance Melbourne Marathon in 2014, and kinda broke my knees.

3.Running my own online educational agent to help Asian students (mainly Chinese students) to apply higher education courses in Australia.

What I Can Share with Hosts

1. I can draw, do i don't mind to teach some drawing technique skills

2.I can teach Chinese, and I'm a qualified Mandarin teacher back in China.

3. Although i may not very good at cooking, but i would like to share food and drinks with others, and totally cool with that.

4.I'm a dynamite and talkative girl, so never worry about that awkward, boring conversations will happen between us.

5. I'm a clean and well-organized person, so i won't make a mess.
