I am from a small town in Guangdong, China, live in Shanghai for more than 6 years and been working there for 2 years. I had pretty regular life before I quit my job and started backpacking, working from 9 to 6, cooking, swimming, reading and on the weekends, hanging out with friends, hiking, clubbing etc. I am very easy going, sincere, polite and down to earth. I met a lot of people and I can always have good conversation with them, and can manage that in Spanish when I am drunk ;p I have various interests and also a lot of stories to share - only from this trip so many adventures and cool people and my own reflections that I could write a book! Looking forward to meeting other nice people to share a good time with!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Currently solo backpacking in South East Asia, been for more than 2 months. I stay in hostel for most of the time, good chance to meet other like minded people and save money. I knew couchsurfing for a long time but haven't tried it. I spent a lot of money, more than I planned, on this trip, for I was spontaneous (open water course, volcano trekking etc.), for I was stupid (lost my iphone and bought a new phone and got it wet and then a new one and got ripped off), but mostly for I was following my heart (I changed my schedule for things and people I like a lot)... I decided to keep a budget while still I could meet awesome people and this is why I am on couchsurfing.
