Hi. I come from China, and work as a researcher in the community design area, I am also an artist collaborating with a charity that combines performance and art therapy to empower individuals with disabilities. This work is incredibly fulfilling and allows me to express my creativity in a meaningful way.

🥰About hobbies: I have a deep love for reading, particularly in the fields of design and psychology. These interests fuel my passion for understanding the world and the people around me. I also practice meditation regularly, which helps me stay grounded and focused amidst the hustle and bustle of life. Recently, I’ve started learning how to knit, and I’m finding it to be a wonderfully meditative and creative process.

When I'm not immersed in a good book, you'll likely find me drawing or cooking up a storm in the kitchen. I take great pride in preparing traditional Chinese dishes and love sharing these flavours with others.

💓💗Meeting new people and exchanging stories is something I truly enjoy. I believe that every conversation has the potential to open up new perspectives and forge lasting connections. I look forward to meeting fellow travellers and locals alike, and hopefully, we can share some good food, great conversation, and maybe even a little bit of art or knitting together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I believe in the power of human connections and the unique experiences that come from sharing our lives and cultures. Moving from China to London showed me the value of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Couchsurfing provides a platform to meet like-minded individuals, learn from each other, and create memories beyond typical tourism.

As someone who loves exploring new ideas and perspectives, I’m excited to meet locals and travelers to share stories, meals, and insights. I’m here to connect, learn, share, and contribute positively to the Couchsurfing community.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am happy to live till now, and I am brave enough to communicate with strangers, which is cool.
The following is one thing I like about what I have done recently.

**************
One amazing thing I’ve done was celebrating my birthday alone in a charming seaside town in the UK. It was a spontaneous decision, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I received warm birthday wishes from strangers, tried on a bikini for the first time, indulged in delicious cake, and even took a dip in the sea. The whole experience was liberating and filled with simple joys that made me appreciate the beauty of solitude and adventure.

Teach, Learn, Share

🧑‍🏫Teach: I can teach you how to laugh out loud—really, it’s an art! Sometimes we forget how liberating and joyful a good, hearty laugh can be. I believe that laughter is contagious and a great way to break the ice and bond with others. Along with that, I can also show you how to cook some traditional Chinese dishes or share some drawing techniques if you’re interested in art.

🧑‍🎓Learn: I’m always eager to learn more about different cultures, languages, and perspectives. Whether it’s a new recipe, a local tradition, or a different way of thinking, I’m open to expanding my horizons. I’m also interested in improving my language skills, so if you speak another language, I’d love to learn a few phrases or even dive deeper if time allows.

🧸Share: I love sharing stories and experiences, whether they’re about travel, books, or life in general. I believe that storytelling is a powerful way to conn

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love sharing the flavors of my culture, so one thing I can definitely offer is cooking a delicious, traditional Chinese meal. Whether it’s a comforting bowl of noodles or a flavorful stir-fry, I’m happy to bring a taste of China to your kitchen. Additionally, as an artist, I can share my passion for drawing and even create a personalized piece of art if you’re interested. I also enjoy deep conversations about books, art, and life, and I’m always eager to exchange stories and experiences. I believe that sharing these small joys can make our time together even more special.
