My name is Eric Ding, a lawyer, Male, 31 years old
I travel to learn about histories and cultures. I am deeply interested in diplomacy and policies. My dream is to make the world a better place (as cliche as it may be), and my first step is learn more about the world. So far, I have been to about 87 countries.

On my free time, I like to computer stuff (I am a part time software engineer). I don't drink much, but I am still a fun person! For exercise, I like TaeKwonDo (Blackbelt) and learning Judo now.

Something I can share with you: my traveling stories, knowledge about law (my actual profession, thought not sure if you are interested in that) and, if you want, I can cook for you a Chinese styled meal.

To me, CS is an opportunity to fully engage with the locals, and I deeply value that!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had spend a fair share of time traveling, and now I would like to further be a part of the community!
