About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover my dream

ABOUT ME

Love meeting new people and learn about different cultures! Have recently fallen in love with backpacking during my exchange study to Uppsala, Sweden...Now that I'm back in Hong Kong I want to introduce this nice and crowded city to all of you =P

PHILOSOPHY

Just have fun. You can only live your life once so make it as fun as it could be! Try everything (well almost) at least once!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Met a guy in a hostel in Bratislava who talked about this site...immediately felt that it is a great idea and registered right away! =P

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had my first surfing experience in Gothenburg, Sweden where I was hosted by a couple...Simply an amazing experience so I just decided to continue using this site!

Had a total of five surfing experience during my semester on exchange in Sweden. Planning to get many more in the future, the closest plan is for the graduation trip in May 2012!

Interests

Racket games, travelling, taking photos...many! =P I studied finance but somehow I am in love with literature and languages too so I want to learn more about your native language!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen the northern lights when I was in Kiruna and Abisko in Sweden...simply stunning!
Hitchhiked from Uppsala to Gothenburg! It finally took me 2 days but people I met at that time are so nice and it was so exciting!

Teach, Learn, Share

Cantonese of course, I personally will rate it as one of the hardest languages in the world...I definitely won't be able to speak it if it is not my first language =P

I pretty much want to learn about everything so...just teach me all ya got!
