I am a Chinese living in Hungary.

A solo traveler and have been to around many countries so far.

I used to be a superhost on Airbnb in Budapest as well :)

I come from a unique minority-based area in China, located at the crossroads of Russia and Korea.
Growing up, I was immersed in two distinct cultures: the authentic Northern Chinese culture and Korean culture. In terms of cuisine, my hometown leans more towards Korean food.

After turning 18, I left home to study media and publishing at Alibaba's headquarters, a hub for e-commerce in China and perhaps the world. At 22, I embarked on a journey again to Hungary on a full scholarship to explore European culture.

I was a journalist, so I very much enjoy collecting stories from strangers, and meeting new people makes me excited! Currently I’m planning to write a small collection of stories.

Let's meet up, talk and share stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to share some insights from my Chinese background and explore cultural differences from East Asians.

I'm all about friendly and respectful exchanges, so I'm hoping you are too! I'm open to all sorts of discussions, and about politics, as long as we keep an open mind and steer clear of any narrow-minded sarcasm.

Looking forward to some great conversations!
