About Me

Hi:)I am a Chinese girl, studying in Shanghai but grew up in Chengdu, an amazing city known for hotpot and pandas. I am also an exchange student in University of Cologne now, who loves the saying goes "Be a life with freedom, ease and openness. Feel blessed for others`s blessedness".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love talking to different people, from who i can see much more than sightseeing in different perspectives, feeling like I can get closer to the world. After my first couchsurfing with dear Jo in Copenhagen, I`ve made up my mind to host other travellers from all over the world when I back to China. It`s just cool to share a stranger with your values, your attitudes towards lives and always possible to learn much from each other. I really appreciate the idea of couchsurfing.

Interests

Cooking (Being a chef is always my dream job! )
Travelling(But I have superbad sense of direction... always fell into trouble with deciding which buses or trains to take)
Movie & Music & Piano
Swimming
New things or challenges i`ve never tried because of fear.
Go as far as you can see;when you go there you`ll be able to see farther.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Do couchsurfing! Travel alone to Copenhagen! Walk for over on hour when it`s 11pm the first night I arrived at Cop coz the bus driver dropped me 7 stops earlier!
I swear if I can do gliding in the future, it will be on this list!

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn as much as i can and Share as well. I always keep the faith that the interaction between two people,who`ve seen totally different beatiful scenaries, is the process of learning, from which both of us have the access to another new world. It`s just amazing to meet people who are totally different but cool!
As for teaching ,haha i have the confidence in Chinese and Chinese dish! But i m still longing to learn dishes with different styles!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

When I am in Cologne, I am so sorry that I live in a small dorm without any couch so that I may not be able to host you but I can definitely show you around when I am free! However, when I come back to China, especially in Chengdu, you can have the guest room :) It depends on where I am.
