CURRENT MISSION

Don't carry your lantern on your back - it will throw shadow before you.

ABOUT ME

Originally from Sichuan province in southeast China, which is famous for spicy food.

I love reading books, listening music, watching movies, meeting new friends, going interesting places and exploring the world.

Quite frank, warm-hearted, and straightforwarded, not afraid to speak out my opinion, and always curious enough to try new things.

PHILOSOPHY

"Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: The longing for love, the search of knowledge, and the unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.

A good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. "

- By Bertrand Russel

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Around 3 years ago, a stranger added me on MSN and we had good online conversations then became friends. She is a Chinese girl but lives in Melboune, Australia. Half year later, another friend and I travelled to Australia, then got a chance to meet her. She hosted us so warmly - drove us to mountains, stayed overnight to talk and laugh, and brought us to her favoriate restaurants.... We had a wonderful holiday in Melbourne, just because of her.

I came back to BJ and an idea jumped into my mind - why can't I do the same for the foreign travellers in BJ? I have a car, I know beijing well, I enjoy meeting people... Then I put an ad on a local online magazine. But sadly, most responses were negative - they either thought I was insane or believed I had some other purposes. Only Michael felt excited about my idea, and he told me that I was not alone, there are many other people thought as same as me. He then introduced me www.couchsurfing.com, where my new journey begins.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
