About Me

I'm an expat living in Paris originally from Hong Kong. I'm a chef in profession. I'm not very good at describing myself so you can meet me and you'll know what kind of a person I am. I don't bite so don't worry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Probably the same reason of most of the people here. I love travelling, meeting people, and learning different cultures. I used to be more active on Couchsurfing and kinda stopped it but now I'm just feeling to use it again.

Interests

Cooking - Did I just mention I'm a chef? It's my biggest hobby in my life and I can't live without it. I believe if peace is the question, food is the answer. It can surely bring people together. I can literally change every conversation into food related.

Travelling - I guess people on couchsurfing pretty much have this same interest. When I was a child (actually even now), I always open a map and wonder what it is at the other parts of the world. Now I'm always looking for opportunities to travel. I prefer to travel in a country for weeks or months instead of a weekend, although I do a lot of weekend trips as well, to have a deeper understanding of the place.

Scuba diving - Recently I'm into scuba diving because the world underwater is just too beautiful and it calms my mind. However, I'm still a beginner.

Music, Movies, and Books

It all depends on my mood, sometimes I like to listen to this, read this or watch that but sometimes I do a complete different genre.
