ABOUT ME

it's difficult to sum a person in a little box, isn't it?

a curious CSer and hope to finish my first tour around the world in the future......15 years maybe?
open-minded and easygoing, a cosmopolitan.
I love to get to know about different people and culture, share stories. people met in my journeys are always more impressive than the views.

sorry we don't use Facebook in China because of the Great Girewall, so I don't want to link a blank page.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I think it was, and will be the best part of my travel.

I love to share experience and stories with other travelers.

CS is not only for a free bed and I'm not a freeloader, I host ppl when I'm able to, so of course I will do my best for you when you visit Beijing if you host me.
