I am an open-minded journalist & travel junkie. I am obsessed with travel (can't stay in one place for a long time).
To say more, moving forward is my normal state, I find harmony in it.

As one of my professors put it, you should never stop - being static means stagnation, makes you rusty and finally leads to the decay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet people from all-over the world, with different cultural background and dive into new cultures. Have my own philosophy of travelling: exploring the world is a lifelong learning. I am interested in sharing my experience to inspire others. Let's hit the road!
