Weekdays: kinda professional, IF I'm in New York
Evenings & weekends: laid-back, curious, and probably trip planning at a cafe or park

I was born in China, grew up in Sweden, and spent a big chunk of my time in the States. Even though I work in big pharma, I keep it to 8 hours a day. In my free time, I'm using doing something active: gym and swimming almost everyday. I'm also keen to try things I'm not good at (a long list). Going out, talking nonsense, dancing – absolutely yes.

Travelling to me is "let's do it" and "we will figure it out" mode. I'm all for new experiences, new people, and stories to share. I keep my instagram updated @jonzzhou. Countries 118/195.

Respect, curiosity, humor, and peace.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Because I'd rather swap stories with a local over their favourite drink than stay in a hotel with 4-star beige walls. Also, the best way to get to know a city is through someone who lives it.

Interesses

Sports: swimming, gymnastics, ice hockey (and whatever else people put on TV during the Olympics)

Topics I can talk endless about: politics, history, culture, global affairs, medicine, languages, music, food, and why everyone should step out of their comfort zone and travel solo at least once.
