Overview
About Me
Grew up in Shanghai, living in New York. Wondering why I'm always in big cities while my soul wants to be a hermit. I inherently have a zeal for nature cuz my mom would bring me in her belly, hiking up hills just to pick chestnuts.
Studied architecture, learned carpentry, and ended up working in construction. I know how to use different kinds of saws.
New York is an amazing city. Still trying to find interesting spots on every corner. Would love to meet people to explore.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Roughly 10 years ago, I did two exchange programs during college. One in Taiwan, one in Italy. During those two semesters, I traveled around the regions and experienced couchsurfing. Met so many amazing people.
When I came back home, I started hosting.
Now I'm living in another country again. World has changed so much as well as myself. I would like to bring back the spirit and start meeting people and even hosting in the near future.
