Hello, there. My name is Xu Jingru. If you are not able to pronounce it, then just call me my English name Lena:) Or my Arabic name Reem:) Or my Swahili name Akinyi :) I am here as other couchsurfers to meet new people and learn different cultures and lifestyles. I define myself as a friendly and easy going person. I am always interested in something different from me.

Philosophy
There is a crack in everything, that's how light gets in.

***I am not using CS as Tinder. So please don’t send me messages if you are using it that way. Thanks***
