CURRENT MISSION

I just got my Working Holiday Visa for New Zealand and will spend one year in this amazing country. After that, I'd like to travel to South American if I can save enough money.

ABOUT ME

I'm a girl from Xi'an, China. I just got my Master's Degree in Earth Science. Yeah, I love my major, but I don't like the jobs related to that, so boring and unchallenged. That's why I applied working holiday visa for New Zealand. I want to experience a totally different life and then think about what to do in the future.

I'm a easygoing, warmed-hearted girl who is always with smile ;). Traveling is my favorite thing to do in my life. And as so far I have been to most places in China (you know, China is sooo big), some countries in South Asia and Europe.

As for me, traveling is not just about sightseeing and taking pictures. It turns out to be more interesting to travel all by myself and meet different people all round the world. I don't like to make detailed plans, but I want to know my major direction, for only in this way could I experience as many unexpected wonderful things as I can. How amazing!

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing is impossible for a willing heart.

Music, Movies, and Books

There are many movies that I really like. But my favorite one is The Motorcycle Diaries!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have tried to travel by hitchhiking for more than 1.6 km in China, and hitchhiked in East Europe also. Luckily, I have met so many nice people during my trips

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm good at Chinese cooking and I can teach you to make traditional Chinese food if you like;) I'd like to learn about your culture, just like a few words in your language, your favorite traditional food and drinks, and your festivals and so on...Of course I can share you with my traveling experience. I have experienced many wonderful things and met a lot of interesting people.
