About Me

Update: Study in Geneva now and in the holiday now!!!!! Wanna have a beer together??? Don’t hesitate to contact me !

Hello guys,
I am Eva, a 21 years old girl from China and I am studying anthropology in university now.
Because of this interesting major, I got chances to do many cultural researches in different countries and areas. From these practical researches, I realized most of things in this world are more complex than normal people think and media said, at least I don't think only one word "democracy" can cover everything. Many elements make today's culture: geography, language...And different cultures have specific foundation in their cultural system.

I am also a big fan of music: classical music, rock music, musicals... And I write my own music, though it's always some pieces. It's not easy for me to express my feeling when I talk to people but everything goes well when I play the piano. So if you wanna play the piano or make music together, I would be super excited!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I trying to find myself by touching different culture and people.
I am undergoing "identity problem”.I am minority in China (China has 56 ethnic groups,beside "Han", we called other minority), my mother is Han but my father is minority, now I don't know who I am.I guess I am "minority outside and Han inside".
so I decide to go out to meet different people and culture then I would find some way to solve the problems or not.
Anyway, keep trying is never wrong!
