Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My current mission is to make my job stable and then buy anything I want to buy and then, go to travel.
ABOUT ME
I used to have low self-esteem and my confidence is very low. But I know I need to change my attitude and my life style. So somehow I had the courage to apply for a loan for an oral English practice. And during the period I met my star teacher who told me about "Couch-surfing". Thanks to all people's help, my mind is becoming clear and let me know the reality of the society and my ability. So I find a job to teach children which is really a great challenge for me. Because I don't know how to get along well with children, especially when they are 11 or 12 years old. But I know I need to change, so I take it and get progress in nearly two months.My guest said "Life is complicated". I don't know about my future, but I just want to take one step after another and hope someday my dream will come true.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe everything has its own developments. So we needn't to worry about the troubles. We just do our best and then, God will deal with them.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My star teacher introduced me to it. But because our place will take people 4 hours by bus to Hohhot, the capital of Inner Mongolia. So most people wouldn't like to come here. After all, they come to see grassland. But paying attention to their asking is also with much fun. It gives me that foreigners are near and if there is some possibility, we can chat face to face.It would be great fun.So here I am.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted one Argentina guy. He kept saying "you are so nice" and "thank you". Well, I should thank him, too. It's him to come to here and let my students see foreigners first time in their lives and practicing what they have learnt.Yes, of course there is a lot of pressure when hosting a foreigner in our small town, but I made it through and he said he had a good time.
Interests
I like travelling, of course, and want to know other cultures, though I haven't been abroad. I like reading, listening to music, killing time in surfing the Internet to read some news online, etc. I like to make foreign friends so that we can share each other's cultures and connect to the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I don't have much time in reading books or seeing movies. Maybe I spend too much time in practicing typing on the Internet when I updating my profile, or doing housework or doing some trifles. But I have a list of books I want to read and a list of movies I want to see. If I got plenty of time, I would like to do them all.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I haven't been impressed by something or someone deeply. Maybe, I'm too carefree, and care nothing and can't share the same deep feelings. There is none in my mind when I saw this "amazing thing done/seen"
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm teaching English to children now, for a living. My boss said when the time I love children, I will love this job. I want to learn something from here or just get some ideas when looking their experiences. And if the surfers don't mind the conditions of our house and come, I would be glad to host them.
