Hongkonger in Boston working in public health/mental health research. I love meeting new people, sharing stories and perspectives, exploring the outdoors, and learning new things.

Once described as a "surprisingly articulate 14-year-old" in an in-flight Delta magazine.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing has been such a rewarding and horizon-expanding experience for me over the years. You get to meet so many generous, fun, and interesting travelers and adventurers that you would never have crossed paths with otherwise.

兴趣

My collection of interests includes playing the piano and accordion, long-distance unicycling and unicycle hockey, learning new languages (currently maintaining German and learning Spanish), cooking and baking new recipes, and exploring new restaurants and cafes.

Obscure museums, urban exploring, concerts, jazz clubs, city views, hiking, musicals, spelunking, wildlife photography, cooking classes, food tours, camping, and kayaking are also among my favorite things.

Currently taking a herpetology (i.e., amphibians/reptiles) course and thinking about getting a private pilot license - would love to chat more about these if there are alignments!

音乐、电影和书籍

Books - psych/social science books, memoirs, anything about the human experience, public health, mental health. Please send recommendations!

Movies and TV - dramas, independent movies, comedies, documentaries. Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Music - leaning towards more indie/alternative/oldies. My current Spotify playlists of choice are "Surf Rock Sunshine" and "Feel-Good Indie Rock".

I follow podcasts on social science, geopolitics, and psychology (e.g., Hidden Brain, More Perfect, Drum Tower, Criminal, Good Job Brain)
