Looking forword to meet you! every time you come to China , just call me, i really love to host you and tell you how to get along well with local people
Actually I have been the guest of a wonderful host in Boston. His name is Don Edwin and the man is super friendly and we really had a good time. Finally we just liked families to each other and I send the postcards to him from China. However, there was no show on the reference maybe cuz it was 4 years ago. Now I am more mature and I can help host handle the meals and many other things. Hope we can be good friends or families.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I was brought to the police office with my brother-in-law because they thought we were thieves but obviously we were not and finally we were free cause my strategy,haha.
2. I went to a wild cottage in Lapland, north of Finland last month. There was no electricity, no water, no fire there. Also, I hiked on the snow with the snowshoes for 3 hours to get there. I made fire using Flintstones and heat the sauna by ourselves. After that, enjoying the sauna and taking a snow showering. It was soooo cool
