I'm Chuanxin (or call me John) from Beijing, Now in Dali. I have visited around 20 countries and regions, mostly in Europe, for work though. I'm still very new in Couchsurfing but I love to try more. Majored in Western classical music in the university, where I learned how to appreciate music of all kinds and play the piano, though I've worked for a few different jobs since graduation. I'm currently running a small startup company regarding online education with my friends. I'm down to earth, open-minded and always happy to make new friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting friends and experiencing different cultures. I love the concept of couchsurfing. The world is like a big family ;) People are the most important thing in life~

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have stories and travel experiences to share with my hosts. I'm clean and I totally respect the host's schedule and habits when I'm at his/her place. (If he/she has the time or desire)I'd love to take my host out for a meal or buy him a drink or cook Chinese food(Not stellar but not too bad either LOL!) as my thanks to their hospitality.
