Travel information

I am currently

Description

I am currently a college student in the United States, originally from China. Since the age of 16, I have lived abroad, first in New Zealand for high school and now in New York. While I wouldn’t call myself well-traveled, I deeply value connecting with people from different parts of the world. Listening to their stories and sharing love and energy has always been a dream of mine.

More details about your skills

I am proficient in videography and photography. Dance and theatre are big parts of my life, and they shape how I connect with new cultures—I especially love learning dances from different traditions. I’m also an animal lover and find real joy in taking care of them. Cooking is another passion of mine; I’m comfortable making Asian dishes, pasta, and salads, and I’ve had the rewarding experience of preparing meals for groups of over ten people. I’m hard-working and detail-oriented, which sometimes leads me to spend a bit too much time chasing perfection, but I’m learning to strike a better balance. I value collaboration and genuinely care about the well-being of those around me. Whether it’s tackling a new challenge or diving into a familiar one, I’m always excited to learn and grow along the way.
