About Me
CURRENT MISSION
learning and taking from life as much as possible
ABOUT ME
I am a gal of Chinese origin who was born and raised in Germany. So I am quite a mixture of two completely different cultures being profoundly attached to both countries. Likewise, I am always driven to know/experience more about other languages, cultures, places, people..
I think Couchsurfing can help us get incredible and unique experiences enriching our life and degrading its shortness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Riding on a snow mobile (unintendedly);)
Try to see/do amazing things everyday because I am sure that everyday routine life already contains a lot of that kind of things. One just has to open up or to see one's own life as a unique story from time to time:)
Teach, Learn, Share
Learn: I would like to learn how to play the guitar (which is kind of my 2010-new-decade-resolution:), how to play in theatres, how to cook different meals...
Well a lot...
For my turn I could teach you chinese, how to cook chinese meal, a couple of other languages, a lot about the human body (as I am a medical student), how to play the piano
