I come from China and lived 4 years in the US for school. I have travelled to 17 counties so far and my favorite traveling experience would be meeting local people and get a true taste of the culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel and truly appreciate local culture by meeting local friends. Also want to share my culture as well!

Music, Movies, and Books

I read mostly non-fiction books. One recent book I read is Thank You for Being Late by Thomas Friedman.
As for movies, I love sci-fi movies, action, drama. Christopher Nolan is one of my favorite directors. I rely on IMDB rankings haha
Not too picky about music- I listen to pop and play classical music. I play the flute in local ensembles. Maybe we can play a piece together if you play some instruments too. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I organized a TEDx event

Teach, Learn, Share

Definitely willing to share all my travel stories! And for anyone interested in Chinese culture, I can introduce you our traditions and language. :D
