ABOUT ME

Hi!! I'm Kate, an enthusiastic girl from southern China, living in Guangzhou. I've been travelling a lot, in China, as well as other places in the world. I've been to many cities and places of interests in China, then I've been to New Zealand for 4 months, been travelling around UK and west Europe when I was studying in University of Warwick in England. Ever since I set foot on the land outside my hometown, I love travelling. I love the new experience, the smiling faces and wonderful stories I learned. Besides that photography and dancing are my favorate!! Wish I could make many friends and you would find me a wonderful, passionate friend too (as well as a eager learner who enjoy every moment of life and always dancing)~

PHILOSOPHY

Dance as if no one is watching
sing as if no one is listening
work as if you don't need the money
live as if it is heaven on earth

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I learned about CS some time ago but didn't take it too seriously, until I met a friend who travelled to south and west of Asia and mainly relied on CS hosts and strangers on the road, during which she met the most amazing people, including her husband. How cool is that! Stories like hers touched the bottom of my heart, opened my eyes to a whole new world: When you are brave enough to trust and love, you will receive trust and love, the purest kind of all.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I registered some time ago, but only started surfing last year, and so far have surfed in Nanjing, Zhenjiang, Wuxi, and Beijing, and Boracay and Bohol of the Phillippines. Meeting people that are different in many ways definitely lights up my days in a new city.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'd been wwoofing in New Zealand, and it was such an amazing experience!Living with the locals and people from loads of other countries, learning gardening and organic farming, mixing with like-minded people from different cultures, learning cooking and all kinds of interesting stuff....made me realize that being a farmer could be the best career on earth. P.s. eating lots of blueberries while picking them definitely was the highlight then.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to share whatever I know and enjoy, Chinese culture, dancing, photography.....I believe that everyone can learn from anyone. Through sharing, we grow together.
