CURRENT MISSION

To see the world with my own eyes and to grow with every step

ABOUT ME

A freelance writer of fiction, music criticism, journalism, and memoir who caught the travel bug bad. Hungry for unique experiences, open people, and a more complete understanding of the world, I try to add to my own story while weaving it into those of all the wonderful people I meet around the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life to the fullest with an open heart and an open mind

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing
