My name is Jianglan Pei, my English name is crystal, I come from China, currently, Now I am in Vermont(uvm) , going on a joint training master's degree.my major is animal nutrition.

When I was an undergraduate student, I often traveled alone. ,The most interesting thing about traveling is the unknown people and things I meet. I love communicating with people, and the connection between people deeply touches me and reminds me to cherish my life now.

I like reading, more than 100 books last year, including philosophy, psychology, sociology, biographies, etc.It is precise because of this that I have become a blogger, sharing the books I like to read on social platforms, and the joy of sharing with others is also an exploration of myself.

I like eating delicious food and cooking all different kinds of food. Cooking is also a creative process.

I like taking pictures and super laughing. On my mobile phone, there are thousands of photos, and I have recorded many small things.

I get up every morning to do yoga, like sports. Usually have a regular exercise habit.

PHILOSOPHY
My father told me to learn to be grateful and kind. I am very fortunate that I am possessing wealth that cannot be bought with money, and I am constantly exploring more possibilities.

I am fully vaccinated as of March 2021.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see different people and listen to their experiences. I am currently in my second year of graduate school in uvm. After I graduate, I will travel around the world. I also want to share my story with more people. I also want to be a sofa owner.
