I have lived in 11 different cities in 7 countries.

Technically I’m still in my Master's studies in a double degree program between France and the US, but I’m now doing a personal gap year for explorations.

I grew up in a beautiful city in China called Suzhou (the one in Jiangsu province). Google search it (seriously) and some of you might wonder why you’ve never travelled to China lol.

I love music, travel, yoga, suba diving and free diving, learning about people, their minds and experiences, food (plant-based) and wine(occasionally).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love talking learning about different minds and experience, different perspectives of the world. I never believed that there was one world - there are as many worlds as there are pairs of human (and animals too haha) eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Lots. I love jazz, classical, pop and EDM. For those who know Chinese pop, JJ Lin is my favorite.

Movies: I like most French films and Indian films that I have seen. Fast and furious series. MI series. etc. I also love Woody Allen's work and well-made documentaries.

Books: Leisure ones - The hillbilly elegy. The kite runner. Pride and prejudice. The little prince, all of Jinyong's work, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled solo to many places, the best one being Rapa Nui summer 2019 and had an amazing local experience there (lying under the most starry skies where it's pitch dark and I cannot see my hands if I held them out, waiting for my fisherman friend to come back from speargun fishing and more...);

I became a certified scuba diver and a free-diver in a week;

I got a perfect score on my GREs (got lucky!)

Teach, Learn, Share

Would love to teach languages I know: Mandarin and French (intermediate level)

I also love cooking vegan, doing yoga, singing and can share these!

Would love to learn anything you would like to teach! I am incredibly curious.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experiences,
my views and perspectives (a penny for my thoughts?),
cooking together (I can cook delicious nutritious plant-based meals),
and basically some fun times and adventures too if you're up for them (extreme sports anyone?)
