About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling around Europe

ABOUT ME

I'm currently doing my Master's in Newcastle upon Tyne and I'm loving my life here! I stayed in Manchester for one year between 2012 and 2013, and during that time I visited many places in the UK and in Europe with the help of Couchsurfing! I have received much help and made many good friends! Absolutely love this programme! It is fantastic!!!!
I'm outgoing, friendly, and caring. I love travelling and making friends all over the world! :) I live simple life and I'm able to cope with different circumstances by myself! I look forward to my wonderful trips!

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice to others if you want them to do the same.
Learn from your enemies.
Try to forgive as much as possible and don't get angry easily.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-- Getting the chance to experience life in Manchester was definitely an amazing thing for me. Before that I'd lived my life in China and it was wonderful to experience a different life in a foreign country. I made loads of excellent friends, learnt new things and saw new places! I felt homesick sometimes but I enjoy the UK.
-- Traveling around Europe on my own: Chinese people always like to travel in groups. But I love traveling on my own around Europe - it's different and I grow a lot from planning everything by myself, and I met so many interesting people on the way.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Delicious Chinese meals!!!!!!!! Definitely!!!!!!
Cute Chinese gifts!!
