About Me

I'm a social enthusiast dedicated to nurturing a vast and diverse network of connections. My passion lies in both acquiring knowledge and disseminating it, fostering opportunities through engaging interactions with captivating individuals.

My mindset is open and my demeanor laid-back. I find myself attuned to a multitude of thoughts and philosophies, readily embracing various perspectives. This disposition has led me to forge friendships across the globe, from Europe and Asia to Africa and the Americas. Among my most cherished treasures are the friends I've made spanning continents.

My heart resonates deeply with the well-being of those around me, and I derive immense joy from extending a helping hand. I hail from Chongqing, a city in the southwestern part of China renowned for its sizzling hot pot – incidentally, my absolute favorite dish. The fire of spice runs in my veins, a characteristic that has playfully earned me the title of a "hot/spicy girl" in local parlance.

Nature holds a profound allure for me; its embrace elicits emotions unlike any other. Whether it's the serene expanse of a beach, the tranquil aura of lakes, or the winding beauty of rivers flanked by trees, I find pure contentment in leisurely strolls lasting hours.

When I embark on a journey, I'm a firm believer in taking things slow, relishing each moment. My travel expeditions typically extend over a week's time, sometimes even spanning three weeks.

If you're considering the possibility of sharing accommodations with us, we're inclined to extend our hospitality to individuals who've previously hosted or garnered positive reviews from fellow hosts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Introduced to me by a dear friend several years back, Couchsurfing has been a remarkable journey. Through this platform, I've had the pleasure of encountering genuinely wonderful individuals. There's a unique charm in residing with locals – it offers a window into their culture and facilitates a seamless assimilation.

It might sound like a tale spun from fiction, but it's true: I discovered my best friends here. This community is a testament to the power of benevolence and sharing, creating connections that transcend mere travel companionship.

Interests

I'm drawn to outdoor pursuits and relish engaging in activities like swimming. My love for sports knows no bounds, encompassing basketball, table tennis, and badminton, among others. Back during my school days, I actively participated in both the basketball and table tennis teams. However, since graduating from university, I haven't had the chance to immerse myself in these passions as much as I'd like.

My aspiration is to connect with kindred spirits who share these hobbies, with the ultimate goal of forming a collective of friends who can partake in these sports together. The joy of playing alongside like-minded companions is something I greatly look forward to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Within a year, I have built a community with 11,000+ English speaking professionals.

I'm a people person who cultivates a wide network. I love learning, sharing and bridging opportunities by connecting with interesting people.
