CURRENT MISSION

Learn and see the world!

ABOUT ME

I was born in Guangzhou, the beautiful city in southern China not far away from Hong Kong. I've been in the US as a master's student of Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University since 2007. Now I just graduated and will start my career in Austin, TX.

I always like traveling! I like to be in some places I have never been to before, make friends with the people their, learn about their lives and culture. I traveled all around China in my earlier years, and many places in the US as well. Now I am taking one step forward, to see more countries. My dream is to travel all around the world.

Outdoor activity is my thing! Growing up in South China, I enjoyed the tropical landscape in the country side as a child. My most excellent experiences are, biking on the vast grassland in Inner Mongolia, China; Backpacking in the amazing Tiger Leaping Gorge, Yunnan, China; climbing the Peak of Texas(Guadalupe Peak); hiking along the Mediterranean cliffs in Cinque Terre, Italy; Lingering the beach and jungle in Puerto Rico... Just don't want to stop exploring Mother Nature!

Also, while I am traveling, I take a lot of photos. I am an amateur photographer. Check out my photos at:

What's more? I am a tenor in choir, I play the guitar, the bass, and the keyboard. I love Music!

I would like to meet new friends and experience new cultures on the road or through you, who surfs my couch.

Hope to meet you somewhere sometime on the planet!
