Should be ABOUT US: )

We are Chris & Lillian(husband & wife), and three cute cats (Hei Niu, Mei Niu and Xiao Miao).

We think that we are nice, hospitable and open-minded, so do our sweet cats, though one of them might be a little shy in front of strangers.

Chris likes reading, playing games, travelling...
Lillian likes reading, taking care of cats, meow meow meow...

We are both curious about different people and culture, and would like to share our stories with nice people.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My best friend found CS Project when I was arranging my trip to EU when I was studying in UK several years ago.

I think it's a wonderful and creative platform for hospitality, since I personally prefer hostels rather than 'normal' hotels when I go travelling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
It's a shame I haven't had any couchsurfing experience, neither as a host or a traveler. So I am looking forward to a start now.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I love all of Ang Lee's movies, some Tim Burton's, some Pedro Almodovar's, Batman movies, some old classics, like Roman Holiday, Waterloo Bridge, Gone with the Wind... My favorite movies are more than I can specify here.

I like reading though I read less now, I think the reason is that I am working in publishing industry now. When your interest becomes your job, something will change. I read both Chinese and foreign writer's works. Actually, I studied Chinese Language and Literature when I was in university, how wouldn't I like reading.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I went to study in UK in 2009 alone, and I survived and experienced brand new life there. It changed my life partly.

Travelling alone to some EU countries for about 20 days.

Took care of my younger brother's cat for a while, then found myself a cat fetish. Finally adopted two kittens and became a happy cat mom: )

Escaped from extraordinarily huge and crowded Beijing to more comfortable city Chengdu.
