【Experience as a couchsurfer and a host】
Actually I have been a couchsurfer for 3 years and slept a few couches in different places of China,Chengdu,Tibet etc. Also I received 6 chinese couchsurfers in total who have all been my friends and keep in touch with me.

【Experience as a backpacker】
Unbelievably my current boyfriend used to be my couchsurfer and we fell in love with eachother on the travel to Tibet by hitchhiking in July 2012.We are both backpackers. He has traveled the major provinces and cities of southern China from 2011 to 2013.But I just went to a few places.

【Present situation】
My boyfriend and I love travel before. However, now we rarely go out on account of jobs, family and some reasons I can not explain. We live and work in Chongqing, a mountainous city located in southwest China. Although we don't have stable jobs, no deposit and live in a rented house, we do have and share our own happiness :-D . We enjoy living in the Moment very much.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I knew and joined in the couchsurfing affected by a documentary film named “To Berlin by Thumb” .At the beginning, I suffered fear, shyness,worry and embarrassment. Whatever, I have made it and my dull bland life has became rich and colorful.
