About Me

CURRENT MISSION

be an open-minded, persistent person

ABOUT ME

i am a person who would like to explore and experience more about this world by traveling around. I think i am a small girl living in a big world. There are so much to do, so much to feel and so much to know.

I am bored with leading a routine life. I want something new. So I would welcome you to share with me new ways of looking into Hong Kong from a new perspective ;P

PHILOSOPHY

opportunity is reserved for prepared people.
i always believe that we should equip ourselves as much as we can before the opportunity comes since it is always unpredictable.

No pain and no gain. It is quite easy for us to give up when encountering something challenging and requiring us to pay effort. We are too impatient for return. We always wanna pay as little effort as possible in order to maximize our return. It is true to some extent but it is exactly what makes people impatient to wait.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It was first introduced by my friend who was so enthusiastic about couch-surfing. She highly recommended me try. I was influenced her and i felt absolutely no regret for that XD

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have three couch-surfing experience in switzerland, which was the starting point of couch-surfing to me. I have meet several good couch-surfers. They really shared a lot about Switzerland.

My first one was in Bern. The host has treated me and my friend like really close friends. We appreciated so much his sincerity and hospitality.

REcently i tried one in Brussel and Amsterdam. Nice !

Now, i would like to try it in CHina.

Interests

Playing tennis as well as watching tennis. Roger Federer is my beloved tennis player.(However, it doesnt mean that i hate Rafeal Nadal.Usually people choose to like either one of them) Roger's elegance on court and his skill are worth my appreciation.

Also, i love playing volleyball as well. I started to play nine years ago. But i hurt my legs one year ago and now i need to strengthen my leg.

I start to learn photo-taking four months ago. I love taking photos XDXD

Music, Movies, and Books

my beloved film is "the pianist" which described how Jews suffered in the second world war. I gave me some reflection on the way i treat my life.

books that capture me a lot are Harry Potter series as well as Da Vinci Code.

Though i am not a big fan of music and movies, i always appreciate people share what they know about music and movie to me. I love to know why they are so fascinated by that !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i have seen northern light in Kiruna. It is the most amazing thing for me. Although the scale was not large, i still felt very happy for that !!It was my little dream in childhood.

I also tried paragliding in Interlaken, switzerland. The feeling was really great. When i was off the land for 2000 meters, surprisingly i didn't feel that scared. Instead, i enjoyed the feeling of "flying" in the sky, enjoying the beautiful scenic view of the ice-cap mountain and the Thunsee.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sometimes i think i am too ignorant about anything in this world. I always have a feeling that i know so little. I really want to broaden my horizon and experience more with my heart truly opened
