Hey Everyone, I'm a 31 year old living in Dali China (though soon moving to Kunming) ! Who is hanging out in Yunnan for the near term future. Every two months I leave China to go out and explore a nearby location and discover good food, good people and find new ways of seeing the world.

I think I pair well with foodies, people very interested in culture and architecture, and those who love nature.

Not a good match for party animals, people who don't self-reflect, or people who enjoy shopping or luxury goods.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I want to gain some perspectives on the world from China and other Asian Nations. I think the US is on the downswing and I think that Asia is on the upswing. So I want to discover more about the people, places, and ideas that make up this part of the world.

I love analytical and expansive writing about society or science.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Hiking the entire Tiger Leaping Gorge in China was my highlight as an explorer. It was simply one of the most beautiful and dramatic areas of scenery I've experienced and led me to discover another side of China.
