Overview
About Me
It is always hard to define myself in such a tiny box,I can tell you my eyes are brown and my hair are dark, but unfortunately even these can be changed occasionally. So if you've got the chance, please help me to find out what kind of person I am. I guess the reference I've received from friends have better understanding than myself.(really?)
However, before you've get the chance to know me, I do have some hints about myself. Now I live in Guangzhou for many years, know everything about here, all these cool places that I almost start to get tired of it. Like everybody who hasn't started their trips around the world yet, I hosted more than I surfed.
I have been living, studying and working in some other countries, France(Angers), England(Southampton) and Japan(Tokyo), all left me with beautiful memories. Many friends said I don't look like a very CHINESE girl, guess I still have that inside, but am trying to make my life path deviate the traditional way, little by little. Someday in the future, I hope my page will be full of adventure stories.:-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
>In my childhood, lots of experience that took a train ride more than 50 hours while no seat at all, basically just lying under the bench, sleeping in the toilet on the train. That's pretty amazing no?
>Met a friend on the plane from China to India and decide to ditch my work to travel together with him.
>Went to FUJI Rock on Sunday, spent whole night dancing, drinking, and took the first train on Monday back to Tokyo and went to work directly like nothing.
>Ok, all the above are not really AMAZING compared to those kickass members on CS, so hopefully more will be loaded here in the future.
