Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My friend told me interesting stories and different ideas come from surfers and hosts. Then I knew couchsurfing can expand our scope of world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just started in oct.2012. Generally realise how similar and how different people are! Maybe that is why our world has a chance to be diverse and peaceful.

Interests

Books about food.My dream is to run an impressive Chinese restaurant which promotes Chinese food to a new international status. So I invest most of my time reading books about food, such as cooking guide and other comment about famous dishes. In most cases, I will design my travelling plan in accordance with famous food. For example, when I visited HK, I made my route included as many famous local food as possible. I try to expand my version on food, so in future days, I will be able to make my restaurant a bright future.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Reaching the highest point in rock climbing. Though the rock wall was artificial and in easy level, it was still a challenge for me. After 3 times of falling, I finally made it in my forth try. It was the first time I knew how perseverant I could be.
Another amazing thing was that I took only three hours to memorising how to play a 5 mins long piece of music. I didn't remembered the task until 4 hours before my piano lesson, so I really really concentrated knowing that if I didn't do it, I would be punished severely. Luckily, I did. You will never know how nervous I was at that time.
