Hey I'm Hao, doing a PhD in Melbourne, yet not completely neutralized by massive scientific research. I'm an easy-going person, living a minimal and motivated life. I enjoy travelling around Asia, getting to know people and exploring the unknown.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In life we search inwards and outwards for truths. Couchsurfing offers a good platform for outward searching. I am here to meet people of enormous diversity, keeping my open-mindedness and broadening my horizon.

Interests

There are a wide spectrum of stuffs I am interested in, including weiqi (or Go, an ancient Chinese-rooted board game), marathon, karaoke.

• dining
• chinese food
• marathon

Music, Movies, and Books

I love jazz, enjoying the process of attempting to figure out classical music and indirect painting. I used to teach myself guitar, but my baby is not brought to Melbourne:(

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In October I finished my first full marathon in 3h48min. I had been training a lot before the race, even in my travel to NSW and QLD in September.

Teach, Learn, Share

i have been a part-time tutor of weiqi, which is one representation of chinese cultures. I enjoy sharing experience, knowledge...

home-made traditional chinese food, weiqi, my trip experience, my understanding of the world and universe, research ideas (I will make them accessible for everyone, so hopefully not intimidating or boring for unprofessionals)
