Overview
About Me
I was born and raised in Hong Kong and used to live in Maastricht, the Netherlands for a couple of months as an exchanged student. I have recently moved to Tallinn, Estonia and work as a marketer at a FinTech company.
Growing up in an international city and having lived in two continents allow me to travel to a lot of exciting places and feed my curiosity. I enjoy trying new things when I travel - I had my first scuba diving experience in Taiwan, skied for the first time in South Korea, and snowboarded for the first time in Japan.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to meet new open-minded people around the world, listen to their stories and tell them mine.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I used to be a reporter covering international news. In 2019, I was sent to Vietnam to cover the summit between the then-president of the United States, Donald Trump, and the leader of North Korea, Kim Jong Un. I didn't see them in person but it was amazing to be there and witness a historic event.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you Cantonese and Mandarin, two of the most difficult languages to learn, and the difference between them if you don't know. I can also teach you about the cultures in East Asia.
